MALARIA! MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
I F ONE GRAIN UF VACCINE VIRUh, TAKEN FROM THE COW'S UDDER AND KEPT
dry for yoars, then moistened, aud tho keenest point of a Lancet dipped in it and drawn gently
on tho arm, so as not to draw tho blood, will so impregnate and change the entire system as to
prevent tho party so Vaccinated from taking the most loathsome of diseases (small pox), for an
entiro life; again, if tho Colebratod Eucalyptus tree will change an unhabitable malarial district
into a healthy, salubrious climo, by simplv absorbing from the atmosphere thepc Ison malaria, why
will not tho propor remedy, properly applied, neutralize and destroy the poison, known as malaria,
and thus enable paities to inhabit malarial districts with impunity ?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that we havo propared it, and applied it, on! proved
it in our Anti malarial or Eucbvmial Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of having any diseases, arising from malaria: suohas
Chills and Fever, Bilious or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liv$r and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hemorrhoids, and that it will cure all the above diseases,
except the worst cases of Bilious and Yellow Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Bolt, as it corrects the humors of the body and
producos a healthy action, invigorating the system, and thus enabling it to ^perform its various
duties without fearing tho effects of malaria in the least.
It has been tried in thourands of cases without a failuro.
They can bo obtained from tho proprietors in any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Pcachtroe streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5.with a guarantee that it Will euro, or

Atlakta, Ga., June 6, 1876.
Messrs Love A Willson :
Gentlemen—In April last I was takon siok with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had run ©n me for two
weeks, I was induced to try one of your Anti-malarial Belts; so I
discardod all medicine, and simply woro one of your Belts, asdireoteu,
my and Ague became lighter each successive time thereafter for. some
three or four times, when it left me entirely, with a good appetite and clear skin; and in ”
I should ever havo a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads, and no physio. .WiBhmg
everybody that may be so unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may be fortunate enough to
get ono of your Belts, I am, respectfully, etc., W. J. WILSON.
Dr a, Love A JVillson : Atlanta, Ga„ June 3,1876,
On tho first day of December last I was taken with Chills and Fever in Thomasvllle, Boutn*
western Ga., end was treated for the samo by three eminent physicians who were able to stop
it only for a few days at a time. It made such inroads on my constitution that my P.uy**®* 1
pronounced me to be in the first stages of consumption, when I accidentally met u» wRh Drs*
Love & Wilson’s Anti-malurial Belt, which has entirely cured me- I haverhad but one enu
since, and that was tho first day after putting it on. I am now in as d health as I ever
in my life, and think this Belt aGod-sond to the afflicted. ■ ^ MATHEWB.

I have worn it continuallv, and have had no chill since, and find my general noaltli, wn*c
