THE reputation thia excellent medicine en Joys, is derived from ?B Icu res, many of which aro truly marvellous; inveterate cases of Scro? fulous Disease, whero the system seemed sat? urated with corruption, have been purified and "cured by it. ScTOluloUS affections anddisorders which were aggravated by the scrofulous con? tamination until they were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in finch great num? bers in almost every section of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed Of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is ono of tho most destruc? tive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack of en? feebling cr fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body and then, on Bomo favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on tho surface or among tho vitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part of the bodv. Hence the occasional nee of a bottle of this* SARSAPABILLA is advisablo, even when no activo symptoms'of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following complaints generallv find immediate relief, and at length cure, by'tho nae of thin S A RSA PA li ILL A: St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears and other eruptions or visibio forms of Scrofulous disease. Also, in the more con? cealed forms, as Dyspepsia. Dropsy, Heart Dis? ease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia and tho various Ulcerous affections of the muscular and nerv? ous stems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by it, though along timo is required for subduirg these obstinate maladies by any medicine. But long continued use of this me? dicine will cure tho complaint. Leucorrhoa or Whites, Uterine Ulcerations, and Female Dis? eases, arc commonly soon relioved and ulti? mately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect* Minute directions in each case are found in our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism and (rout, when caused by accumulations of extraneous matters in tho blood, yield quickly to it, as also Liver Complnitds, Totpidilu, Con? gestion or Inflammation ot tho Liver and Jvun dice. when arising, as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the blood. This SA RSA-j PARILLA is a great restorer for tho strength and vigor of the system. Those who are Lan? guid and Listless, Despondent, Sleepless and troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or Fears% or any of the affections symptomatic of Weak? ness, will find immediate relief and convincing j evidence of its restorative power upon trial.
