RH  AM  N  US  PUESHIANA,   to  the  Materia  Medica  and  is  indicated  particularly  in 
habitual  con -ti  pat  i  oil,  an<l  in  dyspeptic  compiica' ions.   It  ha*  beeu  proven  in.  repeated 
trials  To  be  one  of  the  most  pleasant,  and  relia>  le  laxatives  known  to  the  practitioner.  False 
varieties  of  th»s  drug  are  undoubtedly  in  the  market,  and  we  caution  our  friends  against  using 
any  of  this  preparation  but  what  bears  our  firm  name  and  capsule.

VXUVXXU  XXVjLU.lXVXXU.XJJ..  U8  The  profession  have  long  sought  in  vaia 
for  a  remedy  ••ombining  tome  as  well  as  alterative  properties.  This  preparation  combines 
both  in  a  marked  degree,  and  h*s  been  proven  by  repeated  trials  to  be  »  sure  remedy  in 
s\  philis.  salt  rheum,  tubereular  affections,  psoriasis,  and  all  complaints  occasioned  by  aviti- 
ated  state  of  the  blood.  Physicians  -no  have  been  disappointed  in  the  results  obtained  from 
the  u  e  of  ot^er  prepurations  should  not  condemn  the  r.  medy  until  our  extraet  has  been  tried,

"Pl  Tin  P  ll£l  rinnnST/1  tinoners  who  have  used  our  preparation  have  found

combination  with  Yerha  San  a  it  has  also  been  found  specially  efficacious  in  bronchial1 
affections.  While  the  general  verdict  is  largely  in  its  favor,  Mill  some  have  been  disap- 
pointed in  its  use.  In  these  eases  it  was  probaMy  owing  to  the  fact  that  the  supply  of  the 
drug  was  not  genuine.  It,  i -  a  wHl-known  fact  that  many  of  the  varieties  of  this  family  bear  so 
close  a  res^mblani-e  to  each  other  that  hot*nists  distinguish  between  them  only  with  great  diffi 
culty  and  the  Squamosa  and  ether  varieties  are  hencr-  of  en  unwittingly  substituted  for  the 
Kobusia.  Our  ow  n  supply  is  gathered  for  us  under  the  direction  of  a  competent  botanist,  and  is 
therefore  known  to  be  genuine.
