FOR THE CURE OF 



FEVERandAGUE 



Or CHILLS and FEVER, 



AND ALL IVI.V.flRlflL DISEASES. 



The proprietor cf tliia celebrated medi- 

 cine justly claims fur it a superiority over 

 all remedies ever o. "ered to the public for 

 the SAFE, CERTAII^, SPEEDY and PER- 

 MANENT cure of Ag::= ::nd Fever, or Chilh 

 and Fever, whether of short or long stand- 

 ing. He refers to the entire Western and 

 Southern country to bear him testimony to 

 the truth of the assertion that in no case 

 whatever will it fail to cure if the direc- 

 tions are strictly followed and carried out. 

 In a great many cases a single dose has 

 been sufficient for a cure, and whole fami- 

 lies have been cured by a single bottle, with 

 a perfect restoration of the general health. 

 It is, however, prudent, and in every case 

 more certain to cure, if its use is continued 

 in smaller doses for a week or two after the 

 disease has been checked, more especially 

 in difficult and long-standing cases. Usu- 

 ally this medicine w;ll not reqxiire any aid 

 to keep the bowels in good order. Should 

 the patient, however, require a cathartic 

 medicine, after having taken three or four 

 doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S 

 VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be suf- 

 ficient, 



BULL'S SAESAPARILLA is the old and 

 reliable remedy for impurities of the blood 

 and Scrofulous affections— the King of 

 Blood Purifiers, 



DR. JOHN BULL'S VEGETABLE 'WORM 

 DESTROYER is prepared in the form of 

 candy drops, attractive to the sight and 

 pleasant to the taste.
