The Great American Blood Purifier. QUEENS DELIGHT! THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great American Alterative and Blood Puri? fier, is tho most perfect vegetable com? pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and diaphoretics; making il the most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood cleansing cordial known to the world. In introducing this new and extraordi? nary medicino to the public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention is paid to tho "life of all flesh," tho blood. Many diseases, and, too, many complaints,' which have their origin in a vitiated state of tho blood, are treated only as symptoms and results; whereas, if the remedy had been applied to enrich the blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would have been removed. The Queen's Delight is offered to tho atllicted as a sure remedy for those diseases arising from au impuro condition of tho blood. It has a direct and speedie action upon that tluid, and consequently renders tho blood pure. It is said, on high authority, that "man no sooner begins to live than ho begins to die, and that tho characteristics of the living organism aro ceaseless chango and ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless tho blood is" pure, in supplying the waste tis? sues with material, it must be the causo of innumerable ills aud constitutional disor? ders, Bitch as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, Ac. Lifo and health is only to be maintained hy the circulation of pure arterial blood. Wo therefore advise evcrv one whose blood ia in thejeast vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whose constitution is im ?aired by diseaso and is suffering from theumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, IJoils, Itching Humor of the Skin, Erysi I pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of I tho Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in the j BOUCS, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilitic ! Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of the ; Bladder and Kidneys. Pains in the P.ack, Qcueral Debility, and for all complaints j arising from deficiency and poverty of I blood, to USO the Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, Buffer I ing from weakness and depression oi mind in consequence of those complaints which nature imposes at the period of change, have a pleasant and sure remedy in the Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gav? early promise of health and lu auty, hut too soon become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint ul tho brood, will have the rich boon restored by using ; (be Qupcirs I >t light. i Tho unacclimatctl and persons traveling I into warm countries will find theQueou's I Delight a great protection from nil inalari I oils affection and diseases wi.ich originate ! in a chango ol climato, diet and life. I The extraordinary and unprecedented cures performed by thc Queen's Delight Compound is attracting the at tent ion ol I every ono, not only at homo, but abroad. The merits of this compound are being fell and appreciated everywhere. Hour what they say of it in New Stork: "lt 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 tho various foi ms id' primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its uso is followed by the most successful results." Ita properties aa a remedy were first In? troduced to tho notice of the profession by ? Dr. Tims. Young Simons, of South Carolina, I HS early as 1828, as a valuable alterative re? medy iii syphilitic affections, and others ro . quiring use of mercury. 1 >r. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended bv l>r. A. Lopez,of Mobile, and Dr. H. R. j Frost, Of Charl, ston. From the reports in iis favor, there nooma no reason to doubt the efficacy of this medicino in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other cora ; plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
