M. . KING. REATEST THE 6 MEDICAL DISCOVERY OF THE AGE. Dr. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, Has discovered in one of our coMMON PASTURE . , WBRDS a remedy that cures EVERY IND OF HUMOR; FROM THE WORST SCROFULA DOWN TO & COM- MON PIMPLE. H® HAS TRIED IT IN OVER ELEVEN hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases, See pee Samer ) He has now in his possession over two hundred certificates of its vir- tue, all within twenty miles of Boston - Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing sore mouth. One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of pimples on the face. oe to three bottles will clear the system of les. Two bottles are warranted to oure the worst canker in the mouth and stomach. Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of Erysipelas. One to two bottles are warranted to cure all humor inthe eyes. Two bottles are warranted to cure running of the ears and blotches among the hair. Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and running ulcers One bottle will cure scaly eruption of the skin, Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of ringworm. ‘Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most desperate case of rheumatism. Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt rheum. Five to eight bottles will cure the worst cases of scrofula. A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is taken. Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of itin everycase) Sosureas water will extin- guish fire, so sure willthis cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another; afters trial it always speaks for itself. There are two things abont this herb that appears to me surpris- ing; first that it mors in our pastures, in pace: quite plentiful, and yet its value has ever n known until I discovered it in 1546—second, that it should cure all kinds of humor. In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and creat popularity of the disco » 1 will state that in April, 1853, 1 peddled it, and sold about 6 bottles per day—in April, 1851, I sold over 1,000 bottles per day of It. ; Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in business pwrenty ane thirty years, say that no- thing in the annals of patent medicines was ever like it. here is a universal praise of it from all quarters. In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humore—but since its introduction as a general family medicine, great and wonderful virtues have been found In {t that I never suspected. Several cases of epileptic fils—a disease which ‘was always considered incurable. have been cured by a few bottles. ©, wh: mercy if it will prove effectual in all cases of that awial malady—there are but few who have seen more of it than I have. 1 know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged people cnred by it. For the various diseases of the Liver, Rick Headache. ! Ae pe Asthma, Fever and Ague. Pain in ‘he Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particalarly in diseases of the Kid- neys, &c., the discovery has done more good than any inedicine ever known No change of diet ever aecessary—eat the best you can get and enongh of It Directions for Use.—Adults one table spoonful ner day-——Children over ten years dessert spoon ul—Chidren from five to eight years, tea spoon- ful.
