Annual Messago of Gov. R. B. Lindsay
of Alabama.
Gov. Lindaay sent his message to the
Alnbama Legislature on Friday. He
commences by trusting'that the members
coming fresh from the people may frame
wise and beneficial laws, and that they
xnay sink passions and party antagonisms
to the general good. One false movement
may entail a succession of evils.
The opening of the rieh mountain belt
by the Alabama and Chattanooga and the
South and North Railroads has given a
new impetus to the progress of the State.
Villages are prospering, and in their
centre, where eighteen months ago the
smoke of scarcely a single lonely cottage
darkened the horizon, may now be seen
ft flourishing town of nearly 4,000 in
habitants, daily extending its limits and
multiplying its industries. The infant
city of Birmingham is wonderful in its
growth, and an impressive monument to
the foresight, confidence and energy of
its founder.
Alabama’s mineral wealth, when devel
oped, will be felt all over the continent.
Alabama should feel proud of her railroad
nystem. In five years nearly one thousand
miles of railroads have been built in all
flections. The present executive has wit
nessed the completion of three roads which
are vital to the State—the Montgomery
and Eufaula ltoad, the South and North
Alabama Road and the Alabama and
Chattanooga Road.
The Grand Trunk Road, beginning at
Mobile, has already reached the Warrior
river, crossing 55 miles from the commer
cial capital of the State. The Savannah
and Memphis Road is being run from
Opelika 40 miles, and the company has
means to continue and complete it to
Birmingham, and thence to the navigable
waters of the Tennessee. The Selma,
Marion and Memphis Road, through the
western and middle counties, will soon
form a connection with the Mobile and
Ohio Railroad- The Selma and Gulf
Railroad has halted at its 38th mile, but
its sale to an English Company insures its
speedy completion to the Gulf.
The endorsement laws of the State have
received the sanction of two Legislatures.
Their constitutionality has never been
contested. He has endeavored to execute
them as he found them. A wrongful act
of u company may deprive it of endorse
ment and release the State; but it does
not remove the obligation to a bona fide
and innocent purchaser. If a railroad
company obtained endorsement, and made
the first sale es endorsed bonds for less
than ninety per cent, of nominal value,
this would not render the endorsement il
legal, or avoid it on bonds in the hands of
and owned by a subsequent innocent pur
chaser, at ninety-five per cent. The law
authorizes endorsement at the rate of
SIO,OOO per mile, and if the Governor en
dorses for more miles than the road con
tains, the State is not liable on such en
dorsement. He must know the number
before the Governor can endorse.
The Governor is satisfied of the consti
tutionality of the live million bonds issued
for the benefit of the Alabama and Chat
tanooga Railroad. It has been contested
on the ground that a sufficient vote was
not given. The bonds are not in the
words of the usual State bonds, but to aid
the said road, and henco they fall under
a provision of the Constitution that they
should receive a vote of two-thirds of each
H ouse, i. e. two-thirds of the members
present, not two-thirds of the members of
each House as provided in other cases.
In one case the State is solely liable for
bonds ; in the other (lie company is re
quired to give security for payment of
bonds and interest when due.
The aggregate endorsement of railroad
bonds amount to, at the present date,
$15,110,000, representing 700 miles. The
State is secured against ultimate loss.
Were the roads sold at present, under the
mortgages and the liens of the State,
three-fourths of them would realize the
amount of the endorsements, while the
remaining fourth, embracing about seven
ty livo mil ob, would realize little leas til all
tlio endorsement. The iron and other
movable property of the roads would alone
realize three-fourths of the amount of the
endorsement. Thus it will be seen that
the enormity of the State’s indebtedness,
so often proclaimed to the detriment of
her credit and solvency, dwindles into in
significance.
PUBLIC DEBT OF THE STATE.
Excluding from the calculation the con
tingent liability incurred by endorsement
of ruilroud bonds, the public debt of the
State may be stated as follow:
8 per cent, bonds $2,370,000
<i per eout. bonds 770,500
5 per cent, bonds 3,290,800
Add to this 8 per cent, bonds
loaned to A. & O. Li. R $2,000,000
And 8 per cent, bonds loaned
to M. & E. R. R.. 300,000
And we have $8,743,000
Thus the bonded indebtedness of the
State, embracing $3,445,000 contracted at
periods previous to the civil war; $ 1,500,000
authorized by the act approved December
15, 1805; $500,000 by act approved Au
gust 12, 1808; and $1,000,000 by act De
cember 15, 1871, for the purpose of pay
ing the interest on endorsod bonds, &0.,
and the $2,000,000 loaned to the Alabama
and Chattanooga Railroad Company. To
winch may be added $390,000, the sum of
what is known as the Patton Tax certifi
cates—non-interest bearing—and we have
total a public debt of $8,743,000 with
semi-annual interest thereon of $585,150.
1 must not be understood by this com
putation as repudiating the State’s obliga
tion to her domestic funds, such as the
University and School funds.
He recommends immediate provision
to pay all the unpaid liabilities at the
earliest day.
When he came into office there were
$1,(>40.20 in the Treasury and large de
mands awaiting payment. These, added
to current expenditures, have exceeded
the income of the State. In 1871, the
expenditures exceeded the receipts, $217,-
022.32, and in 1872, $197,507.81, which
with $346,475.35 leaves $543,983.-
1(> to be paid out of the receipts of
the present year. No new expenditures
were made. The aggregate receipts for
the year 18 < 1 and 1372 amounted to $2,-
200,004.08 while the amount paid on ac
count of Public Schools was $1,094,390.-
50 and $700,000 in payment of the inter
est on the bonded debt. Thus it will be
observed that the Public Schools and in
terest on the bonded indebtedness ab
sorbed the greater portion of the entire
iucotue of the State with $317,573.35 al
leged to be still duo on school account.
In 1868 and 1869 the treasury received
from the sale of 8 per cent, bonds $1,055,-
116.50. The then administration ex
hausted this and transmitted large claims
to be paid by the present one. No money
has been drawn from the Treasury to pay
anything connected with Railroads.
The reports of Duncan, Sherman &
Cos., aud Lehman, Durr & Cos., Financial
Agents of the State, will show what dis
position has been made of $1,000,000 of
the 8 per cent, bonds authorized by the
last Legislature. The depressed money
market prevented many from being sold.
He highly compliments the financial
agents named and calls attention to the
Auditor’s and Treasurer’s reports. The
Insane Asylum has been well managed by
Superintendent Dr. Bryce and assistants.
Adjutant-General Allen has procured a
quantity of arms from the General Gov
ernment. The University and Agricul
tural College has been supplied with suffi
cient to last for years.
The Superintendent of Education has
done all in his power to perform his du
ties, and when he has failed it was be
cause of the failure of the system. No
system can be supported until established
in the popular heart and receives approba
tion. The present system, if not modi
fied at an early date bj constitutional en
actment, will prove a total failure. The
State wants an effective system within its
financial capacity.
The Agricultural and Mechanical Col-
lege is progressing well. The funds are
derived from land scrip given by
Congress, and has been disposed of for
$216,000. The money has been invested
in 8 per cent, bonds according to Act.
There are nowinvested $218,500 in bonds,
due in 1872.
The convicts in the penitentiary have
been hired out according to law.
An amount of money has been realized
from the sale of swamp and overflowed
lands, which is given in Auditor’s report.
He has paid according to act the inter
est on the Alabama and Chattanooga
Railroad bonds due 1871, and also in 1872.
Under a decree of bankruptcy he bought
the road for the State for $312,000, pay
ing therefor SIOO,OOO raised by tempora
rary loan. Payment of balance was ex
tended and has not yet been paid. He of
fered the road for sale, but there was too
much litigation. Two suits were pending
in the U. S. Circuit Courts —one aimed at
the overthrow of the bankrupt proceed
ings and the consequent destruction of the
legal title which the State acquired by the
purchase at said sale. The other suit had
for its object the withdrawal of the road
from the control of tho bankrupt court
and to transfer it to receivers. The actors
in these suits were in fact the bankrupts
themselves who sought. to defeat the
rights, liens and possession of the State.
It was also necessary to satisfy the claim
of Georgia to that portion of the road in
that State before he could put a purchaser
in possession.
Parties were at length found who agreed
to form a company to purchase it on the j
following terms :
Ist. To assume the payment of the en- I
dorsed bonds $4,720,000.
2d. To pay all future accruing interest. ‘
3d. To secure first mortgage bonds 1
running twenty years all past due interest I
on said endorsed bonds.
4th. To pay $212,000 due to the assig- !
nees in bankruptcy.
6th. To refund the hundred thousand j
dollars paid the said assignees by the I
State.
6th. To pay the further sum of $58,-
000 to aid in defraying the expenses in
curred by the State in and about the road.
He then says:
JUDGE BEADLEx’s DEGREE.
These terms were offered and I agreed
to accept them,but before the consumma
tion of the agreement a decree was ren
dered by Judge Bradley one of the Jus
tices of the Supreme Court of the United
States sitting as Circuit Judge, confirming
in substance the Bankrupt Court proceed
ings in the matter of the Alabama and
Chatanooga Railroad Company, the valid
ity of the sale and therein the legal title of
the State anJ in express language the
liens of the State, and the right to assert
them as well as to use all the summary
remedies provided by the endorsement
laws. Thus far the decree was most ex
cellent in its effect upon the interests of
the State. The establishment of her
liens was result paramount to all other
considerations in value, and greatly to be
desired. The validity of the State’s lien
had been strenuously assailed by both
the Bankrupt Company and second mort
gage bond holders. If their struggle to
destroy it had succeeded, the State would
have been compelled to bear the burden
of endorsement—the liability to pay the
principle and interest of the money that
built the road while the bankrupt enjoyed
the property. The State was not directly
or indirectly a party to the proceedings
on which led to Judge Bradley’s decree,
was not present at its rendition, nor in
any manner participated therein, yet I
cannot but think that it will prove of the
greatest advantage in settling forever the
validity of tho liens secured by the en
dorsement laws. The said Judge appoint
ed two Receivers to take possession of
the Road, and gave them power to take
possession of it from Chattanooga to Meri
dian, but provided in the decree that said
Receivers should surrender it to any par
ties to whom the State of Alabama should
sell. The appointment of Receivers was
designed to effect a delivery of the entire
Road and moveable property belonging to
it to the purchaser without molestation or
hindrance, which experience has pioven
to have been judicious and necessary.
The decree invested the Receivers with
power to raise $1,200,000 by mortgage on
the Road to complete its construction and j
amply equip it. The accompaying copy
of the said decree is herewith transmitted.
The Receivers have taken possession of
the Road, repaired and put it in operation
throughout its entire length. The purcha
sers, in accordance with agreement, paid
to my agent Col. Gindrat, $75,000, part
of the $158,000 to be paid in cash, to
tho State, promising to pay the balance in
a short time. This they have failed to do.
Neither have they complied with the other
stipulations of the contract. No convey
ance has been made to them. I had to
contend against litigation in the courts of
Tenuessee, Georgia and Mississippi, as
well as Alabama, in any one of which de
feat would have been disastrous to the
State. In Tennessee, Col. John Baxter;
in Georgia, Nisbit and Jackson, and the
late Hon. Win. Dougherty ; and in Alaba
ma, Pettlis and Dawson, Stone and Clop
ton, and Watts and Troy, were the attor
neys employed and their compensation
will be presented for your action and al
lowance. I recommend a special commit
tee for the ascertatinment of their fees as
well as to inquire into indebtedness due
to certain employees which the income of
the Road was insufficient to meet during
the time it was operated under the author
ity of the State.
Gentlemen, in conclusion, permit me
to express the hope that your legislative
labors will be prosecuted with harmony,
wisdom and patriotism, under the benefi
cent guidance and influence of Divine
Providence.

The President Stiil Holds Out Against the
Bolting Alabama Radicals.
Washington, Nov. 22.—The indications
are that the revolutionary movement on
foot in Alabama to overcome the popular
action and re-elect Spencer or some car
pet-bagger will fail to receive the support
of the Administration. The U. S. Attor
ney General is understood to have reported
the proceeding to the President as illegal;
and the President's friends say that if ap
plied to to sustain by the aid of troops the
spurious Legislature gotten up in Spen
cer’s interest, he will refuse and give
them his opinion that their action is en
tirely illegal. It is well known here
among politicians that Spencer was not
many months ago expressing his hostility
to the President, and it is not unlikely
that the latter would be quite willing to
see him defeated. The Washington
Chronicle of this morning very decidedly
snubs what it calls the bolting wing of the
Legislature, and says that Gov. Lindsay’s
letter makes out a clear case against them.
What the United States Senate will do, is
not so certain; but it is ever}’ way prob
able that the Senator who shall be chosen
by the Conservative body sitting in the
Capitol will be admitted to his seat, and
thus will end the illustrious career of
Spencer.
Death or Con. Wm. Giliiam.—Telegra
phic information was received in Rich
mond, Va., on Saturday, announcing the
death of Col. Wm. Gilham, who died, in
the tifty-third year of his age, at the resi
dence of his brother, in Brandon, Vt. He
was born in Illinois about the year 1819,
and having moved to Virginia when a
young man, was appointed Professor of
Tactics, Military Strategy, and Chemistry,
at the Virginia Military Institute, Lexing
ton. This position he held with distinc
tion for twenty years ; indeed, as a tacti
cian he is said to have had but few supe
riors, if any. During the war he com
manded the 21st regiment Virginia infan
try, one of the finest drilled regiments,
perhaps, which ever graced a field or won
a battle. He commanded them with dis
tinguished gallantry.
Important to Odd Fellows. The
Grand Lodge of the United States passed
an amendment to the constitution pro
viding that when a member is expelled
from a lodge or encampment in one juris
diction, he cannot be admitted to a lodge
or encampment of any other jurisdiction
without the consent of the encampment
from which he was expelled, but permit
ting the admission in another jurisdiction
of a member suspended or dropped for
non-payment of dues.

JOHM ISOBIRTSON’S
IMMENSE COMBINATION!!
menagerie ai circus,
TO THE PUBLIC:
After Fifty Years of an aotive eareerin the Show business, reaohlng my sixty-fifth year, I determined to retire from my Manegerial career,
and take the advice of my iamily, and there remain quiet the rest of my days. X endeavored to follow this oharac eristic oounsel, but neilhcr ease
nor fortune would bring content; and, stimulated by an unimpaired constitution, by unabated energies, and even more, by an earnest desire to
gratify, as I have always done, successfully, the demands of the amusement-seeking public, I became restive under rest. Inspired by a like am
bition to excel any of my former exhibitions, after having successfully and satisfactorily supplied the public want lor many years with Wonders,
surprises and the best entertainments, and gratifying all wholesome tastes, I established anew mammoth enterprise, by collecting, equipping
and putting Into operation, my
GREAT NATIONAL MUSEUM, MENAGERIE, CARAVAN, HIPPODROME, AND
INTERNATIONAL ZOOLOGICAL GARDEN COMBINATION.
An Exhlbltltlon as novel, colossal, exhaustive and bowilderingly various as money and experience can make It, and which I can transport by
means of nearly TWO THOUSAND MEN AND HORSES, to every neighborhood andelty of mymtlve land. The admission to these great exhi
bitions is that ot ordinary exhibitions. My facilities and experience wore never as good as at present. X could never as well as now, summon to
my service from the extremest parts of the earth, men as willing and able to carry out my long-matured plans; and while X stiiljremaiu at head
quarters as Director of the enterprise, and constantly on thu alert to secure new attractions,
Ik&FL. JMOs Jr.,
WILL SUPERINTEND
As he has the past season, tho dally operations of the great moving army during Its triumphal march through the land.
ROBERT THEODORE STICKNEY,
THE GREAT EQUESTRIAN OF THE AGE, AND
JOHN WILSON,
DIRECT THE EQUESTRIAN DEPARTMENT (JE THE ARENIC DEPARTMENT. UNDER THEIR SUPERVISION, my patrons
may rest assured that nothing in the slightest degree objectionable or prejudicial to the most refined tastes will be permitted. My avaunt cou
riers are gentlemen of moral excellence and ability. The unsolicited and unanimous expression of the press during the triumphant tour in sum
mer and autumn, and especially the triumphant tour throughout tho South, lully warants my exhibition as the largest on earth. The daily
expenses of my exhibition are greater than those of any other two concerns traveling; and although at times it has stopped ,n localities where the
attendance of every inhabitant within one hundred miles, has faced to quite cover the day’s expenses, I have been satisfied to gratily my patro s
in such places at my loss; while the general and great success of the season has ve-ified the maxim that “Merit, : nd Merit alone, Deserves Suc
cess.” This merited success has stimulated certain proprietors of smaller trave ing exhibitions to attempt, au imitation of my colossal combination
by adding to their exhibitions a few stuiied skins or wax figures, the cheap or worthless refuse of old museums and to call tho r shows Museums
ami menageries. Some have proposed to go turtner, t>y claiming to Have a KUiINSON, and advertising their shows as John Kohlnson a. J
hardly need warn the public against such paltry yet most unscrupulous attempt at imposition. Theru is HUT UNE JOHN ROBINSON, whose
long career as a generous caterer for amusement-seekers has made him thoroughly known throughout the land. My motto throughout life has
always been, get the best, regardless of trouble or expense, and to encourage that only which has lor its 01 ject luu cent diversion and amusement,
blended with the moral, social and intellectual Improvement of myriads oi patrons.
If this last effort brings to your doors the largest show you and your children ever have witnessed, I shall be satisfied with my endeavor, as 1
mean to make It the crowning sucee.,s of my managerial life. The publio’s obedient servant,
JOHN ROBINSON.
tt
A LAST WORD—-To all Whom it may Concern.
I come among you with the last great crowning triumph of my managerial life. My great desire is to please and astonish you with an exhibi
tion never seen before, and containing more than other traveling exhibit! ins. I have expended over One Million Dollars in this immense enter
prise The public and press throughout the United states, wherever my great exhibition has traveled, all ugree In declaring that my great
(Jolossal Combination is even greater and better than I represent it, and that it is superior to any show ever seen, and that to miss seeing it
would be the regret of a lifetime; and in all human probability, you will never look upon the like again. Immense as h .ve been my exhibitions
ol past years, the present one is three times larger than any ever before seen. The great number of novelties which my agents shipped me last winter
has caused my great show to outgrow itself, and to exceed iny o. n expectations. It could not at present be transported without tho aid of two
thousand men and horses; hence I am unexpectedly compelled to transport my entire show—animals, horses, chariots, wagons, ami an army ol
performers and assistants—by railroad requiring eighty-five freight cars, five passenger coaches, three distinct trains and three loc motives. As
my daily expenses reach $5,0 JO, we can only stop at large towns. Hut excursion trains can easily he made up by the public at reduced rates. It
frequently happens, notwithstanding the immense capacity of the big tents, that evening visitors are unable to gain admission for want of room.
1 shall, therefore, as often as possible, give a morning performance. At each ol these day exhibitions every tiling will lie seen the same as in the
evening, including the Museum, Aquarium, and the entire performance in the Hippodrome and Circus My last words are, therefor ,to advise
ladies, children, families, and all who can conveniently do so, to attend these day exhibitions, as they will then have time an; room to examine
the curiosities, and avoid the crowds of the evenings.
The doors are open one hour before the Circus begins, to allow an opportunity to all to examine tlie myriads of marvels which my tents con
tain. The magnificent Street Pageant and Procession of Elephats, Camels, Golden Chariots, Horses and Funny Ponies, and a brilliant display
of gilded and mirrored equipage usually takes pi ice before 9 o’clock In the morning, and is worth going one hundred miles to see. It Is advisa
ble that planters and others from the country, as well as those who get up railroad excursion trains, arrive in town at Bor half past 8 in the morn-
In this way they can witness the grand procession, attend the early expositions and be at home again before night All through the West
and South last year, school commissioners and teachers decided that the object lessons taught, by our Museum ot Natural History, as well as
Science and Art were too valuable to lose; hence, almost invariab y the schools were closed, the children saw tlie great street procession, and
attended the early exhibitions. When the schools were not thus closed they wore deserted, for parents would not fail to gratily their little ones,
and give them a great lesson lu object teaching which could uot be learned elsewhere.
(11l ROIIMI* PIUICMII TO TOR HMK
That he desires it distinctly understood that he is in no way connected with any other Exhibition traveling, and there
fore doe* not want his Show confounded with any other company in the world, whether it be good, bad or indifferent. He also desires to state that
in addition to a Menagerie heretofore unequaled for excellence, he has the following distinctive specialties, the like of which are not owned or
con:rolled by any other exhibition traveling in the South. Remember that Robinson alone
Owns and Exhibits, Free of Charge, with his other Zoological Collection,
A wonderful Camel-Leopard, or Giraffe, a Wild Tartarian Yak,
An African Eland, a Great White or Polar Boar, The Harte Beste,
A Herd of Sacred Cattle, a Peruvian Lama; A Black Sumatrian Rhinoceros,
or Unicorn of Holy Writ, (weighing Eight Thousand Pounds and Costing
Fifteen Thousand Dollars); A Pair of Giant Ostriches, over twelve feet high;
A Monster Aquarium of Living Wonders, from river, lake, sea and ocean;
Nine Sea Lions, from the far-off rugged shores of the North Pacific.
Besides the above notable featur s. can be seen FORTY CAGES, containing the most ra 1
specimens of living wild animals, together with the Largest Collection of Rare and Beautiful
Birds known to Ornithologists. The Finest Horses The Most Beautiful Tableau Cars. The
Finest Chariots. In addition to the above vast aggregation of Museum, Aquarium and Me
nagerie, is the
Best and Largest Circus in the World !

the blood is purified, the corruptions of the

For Dyapepala or Indigestion. Kimi.

For Dysentery m> Biurrluea, !■..( one
mild dose is generally required. ®
For Blieiiuintisui. Croat, Cravei, p„i
pitation of tlie Heart, Vain
Side. Back and Loins, they should be eoniiii
uouslv taken, as required, to change tlie diseased
actioii of the system. With such change tlioJ
complaints disappear.
For Bropsy and Dropsical Swell I*,-,
they should be taken in large and frequent JeV
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression, a large dose should ha
taken, as it produces tho desired effect by sym
pathy.
Asa Dinner rill, take one or two Pills to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels, restores the appetite, and invigorates tin
system. Hence it is often advantageous where
no serious derangement exists. One who feela
tolerably well, often finds that a dose of these
nils makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive

MUSEUM Al ARUARIUM
IgS NSSa No one remedy is louder
BH B called for by the necessities of
BS Air . the American people than a
Bure all< * Balc cure ,or Fever
P| / and Ague. Such we are now
J*- enabled to offer, with a perfect
M certainty that it will eradicate
the disease, and with assur
ance, founded on proof, that no barm can arise
from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in tlie com
munities where it prevails. Prevention is beta
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful dU
temper. This “Cure” expels tlie miasmatic
poison of Fever and Ague from the system,
and prevents tlie development of the disease, if
tuken on tlie first approach of its premonitory
svmptoms. It is not only the best remedy ever
yet discovered for this class of complaints, but
also the cheapest. Tho large quantity we sup
ply for a dollar brings it within the reach of
everybody; and in bilious districts, where
Fever and Ague prevails, everybody should
have it, and use it freely, both for cure and pro
tection. It is hoped this price will place it within
the reach of all —the poor as well as the rich.
A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is, that it contains no Qui
nine or mineral; consequently it produces no
auinism or other Injurious effects whatever upon
le constitution. Those cured by it are left as
healthy as if they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone tlie consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of dis
orders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh. Asth
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Hysterics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis,
arid derangement of the Stomach, all of which,
when originating ir. this cause, put on the in
termittent type, or become periodical. This
“Cure” expels the poison from the blood, and
consequently cures them all alike. It is an in
valuable protection to immigrants and persons
travelling or temporarily residing in the mala
rious districts. If taken occasionally or daily
while 'exposed to the infection, that will be ex
creted from the system, and cannot accumulate
in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease.
Hence it is even more valuable for protection
than cure; and few will ever suffer from Inter
mittents if they avail themselves of tlie protec
tion this remedy affords.
For lAver Complaints, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is tin excellent remedy, stim
ulating the Liver into healthy activity, and pro
ducing ninny truly remarkable cures, where
other medicines fad.
