Puerperal or FliUdliiil Fever. Tlii- heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Kiectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to lie of little consequence. A single dose or two of p tqicspoimful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need b” entertained, as lltf Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should bevtS peated as long us the lever continues, as in other rases. The bowels of course should bp attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain froiff making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain ami sufferhig.

Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold tokeu at a delicate time, is easily relieved if its use; ill snort, it is olio of tlio most convenient and effeotnai remedies for many of the ills of females. If not, the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform? relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will •sooth anfl quiet tlio system so that one run sleep viaturnlly ami healthy: hence its uso in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense Hie treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under tin's bend general directions for ail cases. As file Negative Kiectric Fluid will change tlio condition called lover, or subdue ami cimjrnl it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to bo called, it should bo given wherever or whenever it exists; yt it cunnot lie ex peeled to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. IVlien sueli indications occur iu any ease, they should be appropriate means, and those suiiuid bo given while giving the “Fluid,” and in connection witli it, when occasion require*, as they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no. unnecessary time will then be lost. As tlio FI Aid” alone will sub due tlio fevor, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If tlio bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in duo time, repeat tlio dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to h good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inllammntion, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tlio part; if violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if tlio fever is very high, skiff dry anil hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief ami aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; hlso during convalescence, when the patient lias become ne dui'.ed ; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach to do any good: for this purpose I generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose: when the stomach lias settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic ir uecessavy ; in short< treat all tho prominent symptoms ns you would under any other circumstances, giving the ’‘Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed,you cannot roalizoit till von have seen, and then you will he astonished at the enso with which you cad control all febrile excitement.

When these declarations were made, at the date of its introduction, they seemdd incredible to many, even of the most candid minds, because all tlie resources eff science had been taxed in vein to subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what vfas still worse for ague sufferers, all their remedies or treatment, whetligr scientific or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, such ns Arsenic, Quinine, jllercuiy, Salicinc, Ac. The effects of these are sometimes worse tliah the disease they subdue, and when such remedies fail, or give only j temporary relief, their poisonous effects are superaddeil | to the poor sufferer's first complaint. (in this account ague sufferers should lie particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assort they may be taken with perfect safety, even w hen it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely upon destructive poisons.

CHILTON, IL D., Chemist.” It it 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 talcing of other medicines which do harm. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes this Remedy not more valuable as a. Cure, than it is as u preventive. No class of disogsf is so easily managed as the one under consideration, if the mediciuo be taken in advance. This is owing to tlio diseases being produced by oue and tho snmo cause, and therefore all. both residents aud travelers, should protect, themselves by tho timely uso of this preventive, and not wait for the poison ulready lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take the Cure as a preventive, and so destroy tlie poison before it docs harm. Full directions and advice as to diet aiid habits of life prepared by a distinguished Thysieian long resident in a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle. ft will often lie found necessary to precede this medi cine by a mild cathartic or antibilions purgative. The very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil, tlie object Os which is tn cleanse tho stomach anil free the biliary passages* Remember that where this is necessary, or there is costiveness, it must tie taken or tlie operation of tlie antidote will be seriously nli- Btrfacted. Only Caution.—ln certain specified cases, pour the contents of one or more bottles of the Cure into shallow vessels, (dining plates.) and plaro them in sleeping rooms: for the vapor rising from the medicine, mid also the air wafted across, or circulated over tho dregs of it, after tlie liquid is evaporated, will counteract and destroy, to a degree commensurate with its expo sure, tho miasmata or poison contained in tlie apartment. This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise be resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations. Tli ‘ bottles in which this medicine is put up have tho words, -littotals’ Fever and Ague Cure” blown in tlie glass, and on the outside w rapper is the name of the medicine, (tlie copyright of which is secured) and tlie signature of the proprietor.

Ac. Tile eminent chem ist. I)r. J. K.Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have the Fever and Ague or not. just ns they please. I can also say that a great ninny of niv largest custo mers aro those who a year ago were reluctant even to take tlie Cure on commission. They thought Its great claims and pretensions could not be realised. Now they endorse them all. and it will be noticed that the letters of which 1 publish sit h immense quantities are always new and late date*—altogether they would more thau fill any newspaper, and prove the fact of a greater suc cess and sale than ever attonded any other Ague Remedy. Tlie Crowning Glory of the Cure is Its HARMLESS CHARACTER, w hich allows its free use as a preventive. Thus protected by using a liottle or two during tlie warm and sickly--sea sons. not a man woman or child in the United States would ever have a single attack of Fever and Ague, Bilious or Yellow Fever, or any form of disease arising from tlio atmospheric poison Malaria, to which the Cure is n perfect antidote. it is also unequalled for quick and permanent effects as a Restorative, giving new life and strength to all whoso constitutions have been shattered or weakened bv Ague or Bilious diseases, night sweats, languor and do", bility or any- kind of intemperance or dissipation.
