caused by the Malaria of mi
asmatic countries.
Fever and Ague:is not the only consequence of the
miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders arise
from its irritation, in malarions districts. among
which are Neuralgia, Rheumatism. Gout. Headache,
Blindness. Toothache, Earache, Catarrh. Asthma,
Palpitation. Affs etion Of the Spleen. Hysterics. Pain
in the Bowels. Colic, Paralysis. and Derangement of
the Stomach, all of which , when originating in this
cause, put on'the intermittent type, or become periodi
cal. This "Casa" expels the poison front the blood.
and thus cures them all alike. It is not only the
most effectual remedy ever discovered for this class
of complaints. but it is the cheapest, and, moreover,
is perfectly safe. No harm can arise from its use.
and the patient when cured is left as healthy as if he
had never had the disease. Can this be said of any
other cure for Chills and Fever? It is true of this,
and its importance to those afflicted with the com
plaint cannot be over estimated. So sure is it to
cure the Fever and' Ague, that it may .he truthfully
said to be a certain remedy. One Dealer complains
that it is not a good medicine to sell, because one
bottle cures a whole neighborhood.
