Dr. Raiway has furnished man kind wit h that wonderful remedy, lladway'e Narsaparillian Resolvent, which accom pllshes this result, and suffering humanity, who drag out an existence of pain and disease, through long days and long nights, owo hiw their gratitude."-Asdical fesenger. FALSE AND TRUE. We extract from Dr. Radway's "Treatise On disease and Its Cure," as follows: List of Diseases Cured by 61 Radway's Sarsaparillian ResolOt. Chronic Skin Diseases, Caries of the Done, Humors.in the Blood, Sorofulous Diso 'see. Bad or unnatural Habit of Body, Syphius and Vene real, Never Sores, Chronic or old Ulbers, Salt Itheum, Rickets, White Swellipg, Sealt led, Uterine Affections. Cankers Glandular bwell ings, Nodes, Wasting and 1eoy of the Body. Eimples and Blotches. Tumors, Dyspepsia, Kid ney and Bladder Diseases Chronic Ih unatisn and Gout., Consumption, br.avel and Calculouts Deposits, and varieties of I he above complaints to which sometitnes are given specious itnes. We assert that there is no known remedy lhat possesses the curative power over theso dis eases that RADwAY's EIRsOLVNT furnishes. It cures, step by step, surely, from the founda tion, and restores the injured parts to thoe1T sound condition, The wnsten of the body are stopped and healthy blood is snpa plied to the system, from which new ma ..eriai is formed. This is the flsst correctivo power of RADWAY'S REsoLVENT. in oases where 'he system has been seali'ated. and Mercury, Quicksilver, Corrosive Sublimate have accunu tated and become de psited in the bones, Joints ate., causing caries of the bones, ricketa. soinal turvatures, cont)rtlons, white sweilings, varl dose veins. etc., the SARsArAa1L.IIAN will resolve sway those deposits ani exterminate the.,virus Af the disease from the system. If those who are ttking these medicines for the cure of Chronic, Scrufulous or Syphilitic dis oases, however slow may b3 the cure, "ieel bat ser," and find their general health improving, their flesh and weight increasing, or even keep ing its own, is a sure sign that the euro is pro ;ressing,'?in these diseases the patient either tets better or worse-the virus of the disease is not inactive; if not arrested and driven from the blood it wil'l spread and continue to under nine the constitution. As soon as the SAdIsA PARI.LIAN makes the patient "feel beiter," every tour you will grow botter and increase in health, strength and flesh. OVARIAN TUMORS.
