OATTBLL; Ay ex’a Sarsaparilla, FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD. The reputation this excellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of Which aro truly marvellous. Inveterate ***** of Scrofulous disease, where the system seemed saturated with corruption, have been purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affec tions aud disorders, which were aggravated by the scrofulous con tamination until they were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every section of the couu try, that the public scarcely need to be informed 01 its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison Is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism under mines the constitution aud invites the Attach of enfeebling or fetal diseases without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout he bod?, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its bideons forms, either on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in the lunge or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul sumo part of the body-. Hence tfie'occasibnal use of a bottle of this Bar**p*rtll* Is advisable, even whentno active 1 symptoms of disease appear.
