LIQUID CATHARTIG!

and reliable cathartic in a. liquid form, agreeable to the
this fact will be admitted by
sideratum in medicine ;
has been often attempted but
all. Such a discovery
med -remedy. ,
i No patent medicine ever met with such ready appro-
val by-physicians as this. Many regular practitioners
are using it daily, all of whom have spoken of it in the
highest terms of praise. Persons for the want of a. bet-
ter have been obliged to resort to the use of those dras-

accomplish the object for which they are taken ; on the
contrary they often increase the ilifliculty and render
the patient less curable. None of these enter into the
composition or this invaluable remedy. It is composed
of barks, roots and needs, the medical properties of
which are exactly adapted to the cure of those com-
laints for which it is recommended. By a combination
of those properties the public_\vere put in possession 9f
the most valuable preparation ever produced, This
medicine is not intended simply as a cathartic ;_ its val-
ue as such is insignificant when compared with its pow-
far of purifying the blood from all Iiuinors, regiilatuig

for the Piles, and those suffering from that complaint
should give it a trial. It is also ivai-canted to cure can-
ker in its worst forms. For all the diseases of the Bow-
els it cannot be recommended too_ highly. In Summer
Complaints, such as Dysentery, Diari-lien. Cholera. Mor-

2 Dr. Bla.ke’s Aromatic Bitters.
THIS Medicine is too well tested by the
wide-spread experience of the public, back-
ed by thousands of certificates, to require ar-
gument. These "' Bitters” afford never failing
relief to the victims of Liver Diseases, Dyspep-
sia, Costiveuess, Indigestion, Languor, Loss of
Appetite, General Debility, &c.,-—such relief
as can be found in no other medicine. The
undersigned has never heard of asingle fatal
case of Cholera where the Bitters have been
freely used.
The “ Bitters” are composed of simple ingre-
dients, and are as harmless as they are effect-
ive. Agreeable to the taste, they may be ad-
ministered with eqnal safety to children and
adults. They are a delightful tonic, tending
to invigorate the system, strengthen the stom-
- ach, purify the blood, and impart a. vigorous,
healthy action to the Liver.
For cases of Ship Fever, Sea Sickness, Bil-
ions Colic, &c., the “ Bitters” are a sure relief.
Every ship and hotel medicine chest should be
rovided with this valuable specific, and no
family should be without it, as it is in most
cases cheaper and more effective than a physi-
ian.
These “ Bitters” are a certain annihilator of
all prevalent "Spring Fever.”
