Remarks on fi vers in Genera 1-
On tiiia subject I wish to be fully iitiderstisMl. Ily the
term “fevers.” I comprehend it Ii fehl’lle affection* to
which the human frame is subject, including small pox
and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a •great
variety of causes, and In quite dissimilar constitutions
and habits, they of course differ considerably in their
development and exhibit a variety of forms or types;
yet all are distinguished by the same general ehiiractcr
istlcs—that ot undue excitement ill the circulatory and
nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre
quency in the pulse, sense of heat, dry ness of tin -kin,
liability, Ac.
To show licit 1 am not wholly alone in the opinion I
advance, 1 quote from tile celebrated Prof. T. Watson,
ol King’s College, London, whose work on the “ I'rim i
pies ami Practice of Physic” is a text book iu many of
our medical colleges, mid consequently stamlnrt/uathnrUj/.
Mu page 834, lie says:—“We hear continually, both in
anil out of the profession, different species of fever spo
ken of. Ily (lie public, Typhus fever, brain fever,
bilious Fever, Putrid fever, how Fever, Nervous Fever,
•kr. And systematic writers are to the full us particular:
Mucous fever, Ataxic, Ally mimic, tiiistro-Knterie, and
-o forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under
various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effect iijk.ii the
mind of all this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It
• ueouruges a disposition, ulready too prevalent, to pre
rilie for a disease according to its linin'. There is no
line of genuine distinction between continued fevers,
Hint cun ho relied on. They run insensibly into each
other, even the mast dissimilar of them, and are often
Iraeeahlo to the same cause.”
The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance
suit I would t'/Njim* on your minds the folly of hunting
up or troubling yeuisolf uliout a “ name;” if you have
lever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and yon
:nll he well instead of any distinctclianicter being devel
oped, so as to lie properly named by the most scientific.
This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula
tions or visions of mind, lint on experience at the bed

iby myself and others) under a great variety of cir
■ iimstunces, seasons and climates, bear this iu mind,
and treat at once without regard to mow, and rest
assured you will soon he freed from ull dread of linger
ing and dangerous fevers, but as cases may have be

.Synopsis.
To inojA. niisL,int repetition, ami condense the treat
ment as much as possible, I give under this head general
directions for all cases. As tile Negative Electric Fluid
will change the condition called fever, or subdue amt
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may be or ought to lie called, it should lie given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot he ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
when such exist, must Is* ramoved in order to effect a
permanent cure.
M lien sueli indications occur in any case, they should
be appropriate means, and these soliutd be given while
giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it, when
occasion requires, as they will then more readily ai t,
producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary
time will then la* lost. As the Fluid” alone will sub
due tlio fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment.
If the bowels are costive, given cathartic (see auxili
aries) with tin* first dose, or soon after, and should it
fail to operate iu due time, repeat the dose; if attended
with diurrhion, give something known to bo good for
that complaint, tliougli if caused by irritability, the
“Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local
pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment
a mustard plaster, blister, fomentations of hitter herbs’
or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part : if
violent pain iu tlio head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, nml bathe
tlio feet iu hot water: if the fever is very high, skin
dry anil hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the
whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature:
“tin* saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits ami

New York, .June 11, 1555.
“1 have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fever
I and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, and have tested
it for Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine and Strychnine, but
have not found a particle of either in it, nor have i found
any substance in its composition tliat would prove inju
rious to the constitution.
“JAMES R. CIiILTON, M. !>.. Chemist/*
It is a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is
destined not only to relieve tlie human family from
malarious diseases, but to do unequally good work by
preventing the taking of other medicine# which do harm.
The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes
this Remody not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as a
preventive.
No class of disease is so easily managed as tlie one
under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance.
This is owing to the diseases being produced by one and
the same cause, and therefore all, both residents and
travelers, should protect themselves by tlie timely use
of this preventive, and not wait for the poison already
lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent
attack. Take tbo Cure as a preventive, and so destroy
the poison before it does barm.
Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of life
prepared by a distinguishc*’ Physician long resident in
a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle.
It will often lie found necessary to prc :ede this medi
cine by a mild cathartic or antibilions pi rgative. The
very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of
Castor Oil, tlie object of which is to cleanse tbe stomach
and tree the biliary passages. Remember that where
this is necessary, or there is costivene, s, it must be taken
or the operation of the antidote will be seriou-ly ob
structed.
Only Caution.—lu certain specified cases, pour
the 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 the medicine,
and also the air wafted across, or circulated over the
dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract
ami destroy, to a degiee commensurate with its expo
sure, the miasmata or poison contained iu the apartment.
This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise be
! resorted to when very young infants are exposed to
! mol a rions situations.
The botfles in w.iich this medicine is put up have the
words, ‘•lUiooks’ Fever and Ague Cure'’ blown in the
glass, and on tbe outside wrapper is tlie name of the
medicine, (tbe copyright of which is secured) and the
signature of the proprietor. These p.ccautious are
taken to prevent counterfeit# ami imitations.
The luaiANCE ion its success is entirely iron its
vc*n al merits, wherever introduced and used. These
will ho considered sufficient.

.Mr. J. A. Rhodes,—Dear Fir —I cheerfully testify to
flic value of your Antidote to Malaria. One young lady
in tin* family of a clergyman here lias been taking an
“ AUUE ISADS AM” for some months without any per
manent benefit—a lew days since she got u bottle of
the Curo and has not had a chill since. A young man
also used the same Balsam some time without relief
until lie got a bottle of your Cure. Fo.far it works like
a charm. Yours truly,
