Aii Important
Decision of the
Supreme Court.
Secbkt or So-called Pattext Medi
cines Declared Usurpations and
Dangerous Infringements on the
tbce Science of Medicine.
THEIR CLAIMS- ARE UNFOUNDED, AND
THFIR FORMULAS WILL NOT-BEAR
THE PIERCING SCRUTINY OF
CHEMISTS AND PHYSICIANS.
MANY ARE WORTHLESS AND
SOME ACTUALLY DANGER
OUS TO HUMAN LIFE.
The Startling Revelation that
Twenty Thousand Infants are
Annually Killed in the Uni
ted States by the Use of.
“Soothing Syrup” Whi6h
Analysis Shows to Contain a Large
Per. cent, of Opium. Mothers
Poisoning their Innocent Babes
with Laudanum Concealed in
Secret Nostrum, “Guaranteed to
contain no Opiate.”
CniEF Ju8tice Common Sense Says :
Ladies and Gentlemen of this vast uni
verse.—This case is certainly the most
important that has ever come before
us for consideration, and demands
undivided attention. It is by no means
a near issue, for, as far back as we*£an
trace the true science, of medicine, w<
can also see that this evil has existed .
—this claim of some to have “discover
ed" some wonderful healing balm
known only to themselves and some ig
noramus fronT wham they learned how
to make their panacea—I need not tell
the intelligent how uterly false such
claims ave, both as to the origin, and
value of these nostrums. We think the
test of merit is the only fair test, and the
universal sentiment is' that every one
should be willing to abide by it. Compe
tition in the manufacture of medicines,
to the extent that it lias for its primary
object the placing of the best article
upon the market, establishes
the legitimate place of a preparation
on its merits. To ward off
such competition by claims of a secret
known only to the manufacturer, is to
substitute false recommendations for
true ones, and to elevate the inferior to
a par with that which is first-class.—
We have positive evidence, also, that
many of these nostrums are actually
dangerous to human life, notably, a
‘fully compiled statistic on the sub-
Twenty Thousand Children
few of the great number of unsolic-1 .
anteed to contain no opiate. ' Think
of this, gentlemen and ladies of the
great Jury of Public Opinion, .see the
loving mother dropping the vile opium
mixture that is to kill her child, worst
of all with her own hand murdering her
innocent babe, laboring under the de
lusion that “it contained no opium,”
and yet analysis shows that a certain
popular “soothing syrup” does coutain
a large, dangerously largo! proportion
of laudanum and 20,000 children are es
timated as being the number that are
each year swept .into the grave by it and
similar preparations, “said to contain
no opiate.”
Pysicians turn away in disgust, from
all such vile mixtures, as they have no
means of judging of their applicability
and are not willing to give blindly an
unknown mixture which may be worth
less, may be dangerous and might
possibly suit the diseases for which it
was recommended, but no certainty
exists as to the strength or uniformity
of the preparation, it is a secret, or pat-
tent medicine, made with an eye to
cheapness qf production, and exclusive
control, based on a false claim of “dis
covery,” and peculiar virtues and me
dicinal qualities with an utter disregard
to truth, science and common sense.
Such claims, however, are short-lived
for the public, though deceived for the
time cannot always be hoodwinked, and
are fast finding out the hollowness of
pattent medicine boastings. The truly

Remedy
There being such a great demand
[for Fever, remedies in this country,
jl have been making a special study
iof the different remedies used in
gmnlarial troubles ever since I have
Sbcen in the drug business. I de-
ermined last Fall upon putting up
{some preparation that would cure
Ifthe majority of cases of Fever,
■Ague, Chills, etc., and that would
Stake the place of a great number of
■Northern and Western Fever and
■Ague remedies, believing that one
lliving in this section is capable of
^preparing something that is botlcr
Ifor the peculiar class of fever and
Ithc debilitating condition of the
(System that prevails during the
Bummer months. I have far ex
ceeded mv expectations— Last
Spring I began to manufacture
JENNINGS’ FEVER TONIC.
'Since which time I have put up
nd sold several thousand bottles,
nd IT IIAS NEVER FAILED TO CURE

[with this unprecedented success I
!feel perfectly - safe in placing a
jGUARANTEE upon EVERY bot-
;le; so, when it is taken according
[to the directions and it does not ef
fect a cure the money will be re
funded.

To the Public Generally: My son
aw nearly twenty one years old has
been a sicxly child for ten years—suf
fering from swollen feet ana stomach,
an intensely sallow complexion—thin
blood, -a varying appetite and great
weakness—preventing his doing any
iting his '
being 72
ningof th<
work—his weight being 72 pounds a

after giving him 6 boxes he now weighs
80 pounds, his health is better than it
has been for ten years—his complexion
ruddy, his strength 'is also wonderful
considering his former condition, I
recommend them as the best tonic in
the world. As evidence of truth of the
above I cite below named gentlemen.

meet it is to do better than "others, ii
all departments where experience,
skill, productive facilities and commer
cial honesty are legitimate factors.
In keeping wtth this view of the man
ufacture of medicines which are and al
ways will be in demand,, a class of
remedies have sprung np to meet a
popular demand, I allude to non-secret
or remedies having the formula on
them, thus enabling Physicians— who
are as a class oobusyto manufacture or
compound their own prescriptions,— to
inspect them and recommend them in
cases to which they are * suited. The
people who take such preparations are
enabled to Know what they are taking,
and what they may ‘reasonably expect
to gain from them. Prominent among
this class of remedies I would calf your
attention to PricKly .Ash, Poke Root
and Potassium, compound (P. P. P) as
a remedy of rare merit, being composed
as it is of the fluid extracts of Prickly
Ash, Poke Root, Stillingia, Sarsaparil
la and containing the Iodide of Potas
sium, all well-known alternatives
Blood Purifiers, carefully proportionQd
and combined, so that each table spoon
ful represents an exact amount of each
of those valuable Blood Remedies. The
P. P. P. Mfg. Company use the green
Roots and Barks in making the various
Fluid Extracts and in this way secure
the full medicinal strength of each of
the vegetable remedies used. Physi-
