To show that I am not wholly alone In tho opinion I dviiuee, I quote from the relchrafod I’rof. T.

Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the miml ol all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful, ft encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre -cribe for a disease according to its name. There is no tin i of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can be relied ou.

To avoid constant repetition, and roudcn.se the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Klectric Fluid will cliango tho condition called lever, or subdue end control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to be called, it should bo given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect, permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and theso sohuid lie given while giving the “ Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, us they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment.

W hen these declarations were made untie duto of its introdnet on, they seemed incredißl; to many, even of tho most candid minds, because all .he resources id’ 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 scient lie or empirical, have been limitcu to poisonous or destructive drugs, such as Arsen.c, Quinine, Aleic. ry, Salicine, Ac.

If any body desires further evidences, they will find it in every bottle of the CURE, which is being intro duced as rapidly as possible in o every town and village in the i nited States, Canadas. Ac. The eminent chrm- Gt* ’’ ’• 0■ K.Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have too 1 ver and Ague or not, just as they please. I e: n also say that a great many of my largest custo mer'are those who a year ago were reluctant even to take the Cure on commission. They thought its great i claim and pretensions could not ho realised. Now they ; eudoi o’ them all, and it will bo noticed that the letters ot v. ! iclt I publish sit h immense quantities are always new ( ltd lute dates—altogether they would more than till any newspaper, and prove the fact of a greater sue-’ cess , nd sale than over attended any other Ague Remedy. The Crowning Glory of till’ Cure is its HARM LESS CHARACTER, which allow . its free use as a preventive. Thus protected by ttsii a bottle or two during tho warm and sickly sea sons not a man woman or child in the United States won! I ever have a .sing!:’ attack of Fover and Ague, Dili’ - or Yellow Fever, v any form of disease arising fi-oni tho atmospheric p ison Malaria. which the Cut ‘ is a perfect antidote.
