MIK QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great American Alterative and Blood l'uri I tier, is the most perfect vegetable com I pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and I diaphoretics; making it the most effective ' invigorating, rejuvenating and blood i cleansing cordial known to the world. In introducing this new and extraordi? nary medicine to the public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention ' is paid to thc "life ?d' all flesh," the blood, j Many diseases, an<l, too,many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state of the blood, arc treated only as symptoms ! and results; whereas, if the remedy had lu en applied to enrich the blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would have been removed. Thc Queen's Delight is offered to the afflicted as a. sure remedy for those diseases arising from an impure condition of the blood. It bas a direct and specilic action upon that fluid, and consequently renders the blood pure. It is said, on high authority, that "man no sooner begins to live than ho begins to di(>, and that tho characteristics of tho living organism are ceaseless change and ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless the blood is pure, in supplying the waste tis? sues with material, it must be the cause of innumerable ills and constitutional disor? ders, such aa Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, &c. Life and health is only to be maintained by thc circulation of puro arterial blood. We therefore advise every one whose blood is in thc least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is Buffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles. Boils, Itching Humor of tho Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of tho Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in the Bones, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictic Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of tho Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in the Back, General Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, to use the Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression ol mind in consequence of those complaints which nature imposes at the period of chango, have a pleasant and sure remedy in tho Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gave carly promise of health and beauty, but too soon become blanched and pale by sume hereditary taint of the blood, will have the rich boon restored by using the Queen's Delight. Thc unacclimated and poisons traveling into warm countries will lind thc Queen's Delight a great protection from all malari? ous affection and diseases vrhich originate in a change of climate, diet and life. Tho extraordinary and unprecedented cures performed by the Queen's Delight Compound is attracting the attention ot every one, not only at home, but abroad. Thc merits of this compound are being fib and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they say of it in New Volk: "It is a remedy of much importance and value, exerting an influence over all the secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative, lt is extensively used in all the various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its use is followed by thc most successful results." Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced to the notice of the profession by 1 )r. Thoa. Young Simons, of South Carolina, as early as 1828, as a valuable alterative re? medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring use of mercury. Dr. Simons'state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. E. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efficacy of thia medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affec'ions and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
