No Poison! , Rhodes’ Fever and Aguo Cure; On Antidote to Malaiua ; j-’OK THE PREVENTION AND CUKE ; Os Fever mid Ague, or Chill Fever: Dumli Ague, mid other Intermittent and Remittent Fevers; also ~t llilimis Fever,, accompanied by Typhoid Symp lons : Typhoid Fever, Yellow Fever, Ship mol Jail Fever, General Debility, Night Sweats, mill all other forms of disease WHICH IIA VIS A COMMON ORIGIN IX aiJVXiJvziiA. on mijvsaia.. I riMIKSK diseases mu common hi ninny localities of the United States; hut wherever they prevail. North, South, Kast or West, they all equally spring from the smile niiasimil cause. The great variety of symptoms mid forms of disease is owing principally to diiferenee hi age, sex, constitution and luibits of the sufferers; hut us the cause is the same, they will all equally yield to a remedy that is competent to overcome or remove that cause. liy the laws of Nature, every principle has its opposite, and for every disease, or cause of disease, there is a re agent, or in other words a s|ieiii<; remedy. All Malaria, whether arising from Marshes, Stagnant water, decompo sition of animal aud vegetable matter, or even newly cleared lands, is tho same In character and effect; is a poi son floating in the utmnsphero, causing disease toiill who breathe it. in accordance with those unalterable laws governing the unerring affinity subsisting between op posites, there is iu the preparation before us, offered to the public, Tlui Natural Antidote to Malaria, which neutralizes the jiomon whenever it conies in con tact with it, even ill the open air, and when taken inter nally completely purifies tho system affected by it of its baneful Influence, and thus restores and preserves health. The remedy is believed to be entirely new, and un known to any but the proprietor, who distinctly claims the following extraordinary results from its use: It will instantly check the ague in persons who have suffered for any length of time, from one day to twenty years, and by continuing its use, according to the direc tions, a radical cure will I* effected; the patient contin uing free from the complaint for ever; uuleM subsequent exposure to malaria should make its use again necessary. In its operation upon the poison iu the system, it will immediately relieve all the distressing symptoms of bil ious or ague diseases, and when the disease is cured, it will entirely prevent the accession of General Debility niul Night Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other mede cines. The patient at once begins to reever appetite and strength, and continues to improve until restored to perfect beullh. Ify its use Fever and Ague may be banished from every family and class in the community; farmers, me chanics, and ail laboring people maybe using this arti cle as a Preventive, And pursue their respective avocations in perfect safety from ague or bilious attacks during the sickly season, wlUch is often to them the most valuable part of the year. Since Uto introduction of the CUBK in every pin tof tho United States, its success has been so complete and unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in favor of its extraordinary merit. When these declarations were made, at the date of its Introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of tho moHt candid minds, because all ihe resources of science had been taxed in vain to subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what was still worse for ague sufferers, all their remedies or treatment, whether scientific or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, such as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Salicine, Ae. Thu effects of these are sometimes worse than flic disease they subdue, and when such remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire superadded to the pour sufferer’s first complaint. On tliis account ague sufferers should ho particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assert they may bo taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their ‘ potency depends solely upon destructive poisons. Now, ns a proof that the Remedy is not only valuable on account of its power to cure diseases, hut that it is also Worthy of Public Confidence, Uoeause of its Singular and Entire Ilarmlctsncss, Tiie following certificate from ow of the most celebrated chemists [ll till! United States Ims been obtained, and a copy of it is attached to every bottle : New Vokk, June 11, 1855. “1 have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, and have tested it for Arsenic. Meicury, Quinine and Strychnine, but have not found a particle of either in it. nor have 1 found any substance in its composition that would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMES It. CIIILTON, M. D.. Chemist.” It is a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, but to do un equally good work by preventing the taking of other medicines which do harm. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes tliis Remedy not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as u preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed as the one under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance. This is owing to the diseases being produced by one an I tiie same cause, and therefore all, both residents mid travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use of tliis preventive, and not wait for tiie poison already lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take the Cure as a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm. Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a ltilioiis climate now accompany each bottle. It will often be found necessary to precede this medi cine by a mild cathartic or autiliiiious purgative. The very best tiling for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil, Hu-object of which is to cleanse Ihe stomach and free the biliary passages. Kciuoilibor that where tliis is necessary, or there is eostiveuess. it most be taken or tiie operation of the antidote will be seriously ob •tructcd. Only Caution.—ln certain specified cases, poin tin’ contents of one or more bottles of the Cure into shallow vessels, (dining plates,) and place them in sleeping rooms; for the vapor rising from tiie medicine, and also the air waited across, or circulated over the dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract aud destroy, to a degiee commensurate with its expo sure, tho miasmata or poison contained iu the apartment. Tills inode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise la resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations. The bottles in which this medicine is put up have the words, ••Rhodes’ Fevkk and Aar* Cub*” blown in the glass, and on die outside wrapper is the name of the medicine, (the copyright of which is secured) and the signature of the proprietor. These precautions arc taken to prevent counterfeits and imitations. The reliance for its success is entirely upon its ACTUAL MERITS, wherever introduced and used. These will be considered sufficient.
