Direction*. Take one or two heaping tea-spoonfuls of the powders to three gills of boiling 

 water ; mix well, and add cream and loaf (or other fine) sugar, to suit the taste of the patient. 

 This makes a very pleasant stimulating tea, and should he liberally used in colds and all 

 similar affections. 



Price. Eight cents an ounce, and a dollar a pound. 



CATHARTIC SYRUP. This medicine is prepared expressly for young children, and is 

 recommended to mothers and nurses as a safe and gentle laxative and carminative, operating 

 in small doses, without nausea or griping. It is applicable in all cases where a cathartic or 

 laxative is indicated. 



Direction*. An infant from three to twelve months old can take from 20 drops to one 

 tea-spoonful, in a little cold water, or luke-warm tea. A child from one to three yean old 

 can take from one to two tea-spoonfuls. A child from three to six years of age can take from 

 two to four tea-spoonfuls ; from six to twelve years, a table-spoonful will be a sufficient dose. 

 An adult can take two table-spoonfuls. 



Price. Eight cents an ounce ; one dollar a pound ; and one dollar and fifty cents a quart 

 phials and bottles to be an extra charge. 



AGUE POWDERS. These powders are equally applicable to all cases wherein the laws 

 of periodicity are fully established, as in Fever and Ague, periodical headache, etc., etc. It 

 is an unrivalled remedy in such affections. 



Directions. Take one of the powders, in a little molasses, or water, or other convenient 

 article, six hours before the accession of the chill or stage of depression, and if it fails to cure 

 take another powder six hours before the next chill is expected, and so on ; though one dose 

 will generally be found sufficient. 



There is no difficulty in calculating the exact period of the chill's return, for if the first 

 chill should accede on Monday, at 10 o'clock, A. M., and the second on Wednesday, at 10 

 o'clock, A. M., the third may be expected on Friday at the same hour in that event, the 

 powder should be taken on that day (Friday) at 4 o'clock, A. M.; but if the chill should ap- 

 pear on Monday, at 10 o'clock, A. M.. and on the succeeding Wednesday, at 1 o'clock, P. 

 M., the chill on Friday would be at 4 o'clock, P. M. and in that event, the powder should 

 be taken at 10 o'clock, A. M., on Friday ; or if the chill should come on on Monday, at 10 

 o'clock, A. M., and on Wednesday, at 9 o'clock, A. M., the Friday's chill would be at 8 

 o'clock, A. M. and the powder should be taken at 2 o'clock, A. M.; and so on. The same 

 rule applies invariably, when the periodicity is well defined, in any disease of a periodical 

 character; and that rule is, to administer the powder six hours before the depressed stage is 

 expected, and a cure is almost universally the inevitable result. 



P rice. Twenty-five cents a powder.
