Walker's California Vinegar Hitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, in ado cliieliy from the native herbs found on tlio lower ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor tuo uiuuiuuidi juupui nua ui ?uivu are oxtracted therefrom without the uaa of Alcohol. Tho question is almost daily asked, "What is tho cause of thn? unparalleled success of Vinegar Bitthis?" Our answer is, thiit thoy rcwovui tho cause of disease, and the patient recovers his health. Thoy nro tho great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and luvjgorator of the system. Never beforo in tho history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkablo qualities of Vinkgar Bittkrs in healing tho aick of every disease man is heir to. Tlicy are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation o* the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases. The properties of Dr. Walker's ? IKKGarBittkrs are Aperient. Diaphoretic-, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative. Diuretic,. Sedative, Counter-irritant, Sudorific, Altera tive, and Anti-Bilious. Gfrateftil Thousands proclaim Yen xgar Bitters the most wonderful Invi go rant that ever sustained the sinking system. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious. Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout tho United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas. Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Roanoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during tho Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during seasons of-unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensivo derangements of the stomach and liver, aud other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. Thoro is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily remove the darkcolored viscid matter with which tlio j bowels are loaded, at the same tinio i stimulating the secretions of the liver. and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus fore-armed, i Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Hcad! ache, rain in the Shoulders, Coughs, ; Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour . Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste | in tho Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitai tation of tho Lleart, Inflammation of tho l Lungs, Pain in the region of tho KidI ueys, and a hundred other painful sympI toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. ! One bottle will prove a better n-ii.imnton ! of its merits than a lengthy advertise| moot.

Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Soro Eyes, etc. ' In these, as in all other constitutional Dis1 eases, Walker's Vinegar Bitters have shown their great curative powers in the ; most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic I Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Kemit1 tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys aud Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases j are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.?Persons en! gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as | Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, aud Miners, as they advance in life, are subject. ; to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard j against this, take a dose of Walkbr's Vinegar Bitti?rk occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, TetI ter. 8alt-Rheniri- Blntchpu Rnnfo p;r??^i?o - / 1 l Pustules, Boils, C'aHiuncles, Ring-worms, ! Scald-bead, Sore Byes, Erysipelas, Itch, i Scurfs, Discoloration* of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and remoVed. No system of medicine, uo vermifuges, no antnelminitics will free the sj'stcm from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at thg dawn of womanhood, or the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when ever you find its impurities bursting through the skiff in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when.
