boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated ns

tion: little or no pitting, and ffmt there is no itrrrwhj of
its riiiiiiiiig its ordinary course. On this I will stake
not only my reputation, bntall that 1 hold most dear;
besides, on l his subject- 1 have good authority: that of
Prof. Watson, previously quitted. 11• says, page 874:
*• Vmi may abate the force of the eruptive lever, and

In connection with this subject. I cannot retrain frmu
milking a lew general remarks, which, if regarded hy
tho Indies, will save, them lunch pain and Millering. It
is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid iu
many of their trials. In child birth, its relaxing ami
soothing effect deprives the labor ol niych of its pains
and difficulties; it must be tried to he appreciated.—
I'aiuful menstruation w ill be relieved at once by a com

ora cold taken at-a delicate time, is easily relieved by
its use; iu short, it is oue of the most convenient ami
effectual remedies lor many of the ills of females, if not
the most so of any mcdiciuo known. Its effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
and iritability ol the nervous as well as the eirculatorv.
It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth and
quiet tho system Bo tluit one can Bleep naturally an.l

Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment as much as possible, I give under this head general
directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid
will change the condition called lever, or subdue and
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may he or ought to be called, it should be given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot he ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
when Such exist, must he removed in order to effect a
permanent cure.
When such indications occur in any case, they should
h* appropriate means, and these Buhuld be given while
giviug tho “ Fluid,” and iu connection with it, when
occasion requires, as they will then more readily act,
producing morn general effect, besides no unnecessary
time will then be lost. As the % Fluid” alone will siff>-
duo the lever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment.
If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili
aries) with tho first dose, or soon alter, and should it
fail to operate in due Unto, repeat the dose: if attended
with dim-rloi-a, give something known to he good for
that complaint, though if caused hy irritability, tlm
•'Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local
pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment,
a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wet hi cold water, to the juirt: if
violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
the feet in hot water: if the fever is very high, skin
dry and h*t f with great suffering, sponge or bathe the
whole Surfs* e with water at an agreeable temperature:
*‘th* saline wash.” vinegar uud 4vater or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief ami aid the medi
cine iu taking effect, alter which there will Ik* no trou
ble: if tin* patient lias been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, in alienee of fever or when indicated: also,
during convalescence, when tho patient him become re
duced ; if there Is nausea and vomiting, that must be
alloyed before any medicine will remain on the stomach
to doMMy good ; for this purpose 1 generally give some
gentle emetic to cleanse tin* stomach; worm water, if
given plentifully, will answer every purpose: when the
stomach lias settled, give th** •* Fluid” and a cathartic if
necessary: in short, treat all tin* prominent symptoms
us yon would under any other circumstances, giving the
“ Fluid” at tho same time os directed, and success w ill
crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you
have seen, amt theu you will be astonished at the *as*
with which you cun control all febrile excitement.
Aitxiliu lies.
Parties mav feel at a hiss to know what is meant hv
cathartics. Ac., as physicians are usually particular
uh**ut what is used. I have found wo sueli necessity
when using tbu Fluid, and to he fully understood by
all, I w ill nano* a tew of the different articles of medi

particularly, portal circulation and secretion* generally.
Any ot the articles depended on by the different schools
fr this purpose, will answer w hen used in connection
with the •• Fluid” or while the system is under its in-

f | , llE>E diseases are conitiion to many localities of the
X I lilted States: but wherever they prevail, North,
.south. East *>r West, they all equally spriiiff from the
mb in* miasiiial euuse. The great variety of symptoms and
forms ol disease is ow ing principally to differeuce in age,
m*v, coiihtitutioji and habits of the sufferers; but a* the
l aiise is th** same, they will all equally yield to a remedy
that is competent to overcome or remove that cause.
Hy the laws **t Nature, every principle has its opposite,
mid f*r ••wry disease, <i cause ol <lis©ase, there is a re
agent. or in other words a specific remedy. All Malaria,
w hether arising from Marshes, stagnant water, decompo
sition of animal and vegetable matter, or even newly
cleared lands, is tin* same in character and effect: is a poi
son floating in the atmosphere, causing disease to all who
hrc.utlie it. In accordance with those unalterable laws
governing th** unerring affinity subsisting between op
posites. tli**i* is in th** preparation Indore ii*. oflYred to
tlu* public.
The \ahtial Antidote to fflalariu,
which neutralizes the poison whenever it conn * in con
tact with it. even in the open air, and when taken inter
nally completely purities the system affected by it of its
baneful inffiience. and thus restores and preserve
health.
The remedy is believed to be entirely new. and un
linown to any but the proprietor, who distirtetly claims
the follow lug ex rruordinarv results from its use:
It will instantly cheek the ague in persons who have
suffered tor any leiigthof time, from one day to twenty
years, ami by continuing its use, according to the direc
tions, a radii a I cure will be effected: the putient contin
uing free from the complaint for ever; unless subsequent
exposure to malaria should make its use again necessary.
In it* operation upon the poison in the system, it will
immediately relieve nil the distressing symptoms of bil
ious or ague diseases, aud when the disease is cured, it
w ill entirely prevent the accession of
(Jencral Debility and Night Sweats,
which so often follow the administration of other nude*
l ines. The patient at once begins to reever appetite
and strength, and continues to improve until restored t*
perfect health.

And pursue their respective avocations in perfect safety
from ague or bilious attacks during the sickly season,
which i* oft*'it t* them the most valuable part of the
year.
.Since the introduction of the ('I RE in every part of
tin* United States, its success has been so complete and
unvarying ns to have fully prove* 1 those assertions iu
favor of its extraordinary merit.
NY hen these declarations were made, at the date, of its
introduction, they seemed Ineieiiihli* to many, even of
the most candid minds, because all the resources *.f
science bad 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 boon limited t* * poisonous or destructive
drugs. su**li as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, £aliciuc. Ac.
The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease
t hey subdue, and when sueli remedies fail, or give only
temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire superadded
to the poor sufferers first complaint.
On this account ague sufferers should be particularly
careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies,
notwithstanding tlm makers of them uniformly assert
they may bo taken with perfect safety, even when it is
notoriously well known that their potency d**p* nds
solely upon destructive poisons.
Now, as a proof that the Remedy is not only valuable
on account of its power to cure diseases, but that it is
also
Worthy ot* Publft4. Confidence,
Recause of its
Singular uim! Entire Harmlessm-ss,
The following certificate from one of the most celebrated
chemists in tho United States has been obtained, and a
copy of it is attached to ©very bottle:
M;w York. June 11. IKoS.
**l have made a chemical examination of Rhodes* Fever
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 l found
any Kidwtanco in its composition that would prove inju
rious to the constitution.
•JAMES R. CHILTON, M. D., Chemist.”
If is a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy in
destined not only to relieve tin* human family from
malarious diseases, but to do au equally good work by
preventing the taking of other medicines w hich do harm.
The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes
this Remedy not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as a
preventive.
No class of disease is so easily managed hk the oue
under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance.
This is owing to the diseases being produced by one an J
the same cause, and therefore all, both residents and
travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use
of this preventive, and not wait for the poison already
lurking in their veins, to develop ‘itself in a violent
attack. Take the Cure as a prevent!ve. and so destroy
the poison bofore it does harm.
Full directions and advice ns to diet and habits of life
prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in
a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle.
It will otten be found necessary to precede this medi
cine by a mild cathartic or anti bilious purgative. The
very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of
Castor Oil, the object of w hich is to cleanse the stomach
and free the biliary j usages. Remember that, where
this is necessary, or there is eowtiveness, it mitst be taken
or the operation of the antidote will he seriously ob
structed.
Only Caution.—ln certain specified ease.-, pour
tho 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, w ill counteract
and destroy, to a ilegiee commensurate with its expo
sure, the miasmata or poison contained in the apartment.
This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise be
resorted to when very young infants are exposed t*
malarious situations.
The bottles in which this medicine is put up have the
words. “Rhodes’ Fever and Amir. Cure ’ blown in the
glass, aml on tin* outside wrapper is the name of the
medicine, (tho copyright of which is secured) and the
signature of the proprietor. These precautions are
taken to prevent counterfeits and imitations.
The reliance for its success is entirely upon its
actual MERITS, wherever introduced and used. These
will l>e considered sufficient.

the Fever and Ague or not. just as they please.
I can also say that a great many of my largest custo

take the Cure on commission. They thought its great
claims and pretensions could not be realised. Now they
endorse them all. and it will he noticed that the letters
