When tlicwe declarations were made, at the date of its introduction, they sownied laeredilde to many, even of the most candid minds, because all Hie resources of science had been taxed ill vain to subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what was still worse for ague sufferer* all their remedies or treatment, whether arientiiic or empirical, have boon limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, Kiieli a* Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Saliclne, Ac. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and when sucli remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effect* arc snperadded to the poor sufferer’s first complaint.

CHILTON, M. I)., Chemist.’ It i* a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, but to do an equally good work by preventing the taking of other medicine* which do harm. The entire aliscitce of any baneful ingredient makes this Remedy not more valuable us a Cure, than il is as a 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 1 the same cause, and therefore all. both residents and travelers, should protect themselves hv the timely use of tills preventive, and not wait for the jKiison already lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take the Cure a* a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm.
