SARSAPARILLIAN is onty one of the ingredi- its that forms this truly wonderful medicin. the omly compensating remedy that comm: cates its purifying, cleansing and reinvigorating properties through the BLOOD, SWEAT, URINE, and other secretions, secming @ harmonions fanc- tional action of every depraved organ and gland in the system. If the blood is corrupt, the Resolvent will make ft pure. 1f the Lungs are ulcerated and sore, secreting thick phlegm, and prurelent matter, the Resolvent will loosen this deposit and repair | the wasting lung with sound and healthy material. If the Skin is covered with pimples, spets, pustules, sores, ulcers, &c., the Besolvent will quickly re- move these annoyances. If mercury is ceposited in the boues and has accumalated inthe system, the Besolvent will driveit out. Ifthe thros: or Bron chial Glands are ulcerated, the Resolvent will cure these signs of an early waste. Direct remedies pos- sessing only exclusive properties, are hurtfal, as they increase the fuuctional secretions of one organ by suspending the constituent secretions of ethers; hence, a compensating remedy like the Kesolvent is the only means of a permanent cure. BEAE IN MIND THAT EVERY DROP OF BLOOD impregnuted with the Besolvent and ab- sorbed to supply the waste of the body, will make pure, sound and hqalthy flesh and fibre.

If you are suffering, or have suffered, what effect does it produce upon your general health ? Do you feel weak, debliiated, easily tired? Does a little extra exertion produce palpitation of the heart? Does your liver, or urinary organs, or yonr kidneys frequently get out of order? Do you have spells of short breathing, or dyspepsia® Are your bowels constipated? Do you have spelis of fainting, or rushes of blood to the head? Is your memory impaired? Is your mind constantly dwell- ing upon this subject? Do you feel dull, listess, moping, tired of company, of life? Do you wish to beleft alone, to get away from everybody ? Does any little thing make you start or jump? Is your sleep broken or restless? Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant? the bloom on your cheek as bright? Do you enjoy yourself in society as well? Do you pursue your business with the same energy? Do you feel as much confidence in yourself? Are your spirits dull and flagging, given to fits of melan- choly? If so, do not lay it to your liver or dyspep- sia, Have you restless nights? Your back weak your knees weak, and have but little appetite; and you attribute this to dyspepsia or Hver com- piaint ? Now, reader, did you ever think that these bold, defiant, energetic, persevering, success- ful business men are always those who are in perfect health? You never hear such men complain of beimg melancholy, of nervousness, of palpitation of the heart. They are never afraid they cannot succeed in business; they don’t be- come sad and discouraged; they are always polite and pleasant in the company of ladics, and look you and them right in the face—none of your down- cast looks or any other meanness about them. I do not mean those who keep the organs inflamed by running to excess, These wil not only ruin their constitations, but also those they do business with or for. How many men, from badly-cured diseases and excesses, have brought about that state of weak- ness in those organs that has reduced the general system so much as to induce almost every other diseasc—idiocy, lunacy, parelysis, spine! affec- tons, suicide, and almost every other form of dis- ease which humanity fs heir to,and the real cause © the trouble scarcely ever suspected, and have doctored for all buttherightone. ~ =» Diseases of these organs require the use of a din- retic.
