 Upon the responsibility of my medical testimonials

 my great medical practitioner and the saatary and beneficial effects of my medicine stand or fall. l seek moi to deceive the public with

 ticle of whose component parts they ignorant. What do the public know of the poisonous and de- strucive ingredients contained in the various pills and panaceas advertised throughout the Union The propretors of such medicines know too well if the public were aware, that out of every ten pills they v,

 trade was at an end. l have analized of the pills, and other medicines advertised through bout the

 UnIon and found them to contain, etier corroSine Sb

 Iimate or Calomel. The reason is then obvious why

 these hase mpusters will tell the component parts of their medicines They pretend that they have dis

 covered the philosophers stone, and that you may live through countless ages, if you hut swallow their medicine. l practice no such deception My inesli! cine has stood the of yearsit is recommended hy the most eminent of the medical faculty, and what

 Is of importance than all, l candidly and hon estly confess that my medicine Is a combination of 'SaysapariHa, Lpsr,out, PieuriSy Root, Lgnum Naa, and one two other ingredients. The only origin ality claim is in my peculiar mode of preparation.

 1t is true, it has often been the wonder and

 nent of my medical brethren, the astonishing cures performed in cases that considered not within

 the pow, of medical aid. The whole mystery con

 sisted in my uslng the medicine and this alone to the

 exclusion of all others, and of the correct principles

 upon which diseases ought to be treated. It will not

 however be a matter of surprise that such wonderful

 success should follow the use of this medcine when

 sThe human body consists of solids and fluids The former long structure is about one-fith. The lat

 ter or soft part five sixths. Man is linked together

 by number of organs beautifully as to form per-

 feet chain in the animal economy. One link of which

 when of order diseased is sufficient to destroy

 the harmony of the whole. These organs furnsh- ed with nunerable blood vessels called arteries and veins, which have common centre. The heart for propellng through them the blood mtrve fluid to all parts of the system from the heart being furnished

 with valves which all in direction, the blood can only flow in corresponding course. That it is

 forced by the heart into the arteries, and after moist

 ening the most minute flores, it is received by the veins and brought again to the heart, and performs again the round of the body and so in succession. The of the blood, is to receive from the alenta
