VINEGAR BITTERS
PUI?ELY VEGETABLE.
FREE FROM ALCOHOL,
Dr. IValker'e California Vinegar Bitters are a
purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from
the native herbs found on the lower ranges of the
Sierra Nevada mountains of California, the medical
properties of which are extracted therefrom with
out the use of Alcohol. The question is alwost
daily asked, "What is the cause of the unparalleled
success of Vinegar Bitters ?" Our answer is, that
they remove the cause of the disease, and the
patient recovers his health. They are the great
blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a
perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system.
Never before in the history of the world ha= a med
icine been compounded possessing the remarkable
qualities of Vinegar Bitters in healing the sick of
every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle
Purgative as well as Tonic, relieving Congestion or
Intlamation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in
Bilious Diseases.
Dr. IValker's California Vinegar Bitters act on
all these cases in a similar manner. By purifying
the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving
away the effects of the inflammation (the tubercu
lar deposits) the affected parts receive health, and
a permanent cure is effected.
If men will enjoy good health, let them use Vine.
gar Bitters as a medicine, and avoid the use of al.
choholic stimulants in every form.
Grateful 7 hottaande proclaim Vinegar Bitters dm
most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained du
oinking system.
No pereou can take theee Bitters &wording to di
rections, and remain long unwell, provided their
bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair.
Billions, Remittent rend Intermittent Fever., which
are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially those of
the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee,
Cumberland, Arkansas, Red,Colorado, Brazos, Rio
Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and many others, with their vast
tributaries, throughout our entire country during
the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so dur
ing seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are inva
riably accompanied by extensive derangements of
the stomach and liver, and otherabdorninal viscera.
In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a power
ful influence upon these various organs, is essential
ly necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose
equal to Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters, as they
will speedily remove the dark-colored viscid mat
ter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same
time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and
generally restoring the healthy functions of the
digestive organs.
Fortify the body against disease by purifying a li
its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can
take hold of a system thus fore-armcd.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head-ache, Pain in
the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest,
Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad
Taste in the Mouth, Billions Attacks, Palpitation
of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, pain in
the region of the Kidneys, and a hundred other
painful symptoms, are the offsprings of the Dys
pepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee
of its merits than a lengthy advertisement.
Scrofula, or King's Evil, White Swellings, Ul
cers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous
Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial
affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore
Eyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional
diseases, Walker's Vinegar Bitters have shown
heir great curative powers in the most obstinate
and intractable cases.
For infiamatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gant,
Billions, Remittant and Intermittent Fevers, Dia
eases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
these Bitters have no equal. Such diseases are
caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases.—Persons engaged in Paints
and Minerals, sash as Plumbers, Type-setters,Gold
beaters and Miners, as they advance in life, are
subject to paralysis of the bowels. To guard against
this. take a dose of Walker's Vinegar Bitters oc
casionally.
For Skin Directors, Eruptions, Totter, Salt-Rheum
Blotches. Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbun
cles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, sore Eyes, Erysipe-
Itch, Scrufs, Discoloration of the skin, Humors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or na
ture, are literally dug up and carried out of the
system in a short time by the use of the. Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other IVorine, lurking in the sys
tem of so ninny thousands, areeffectually destroyed
and removed. No system of medicine, no vermi
loges, no anthelminitice will free the system from
worms like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young or old, married
or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or the turn
of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an
influence that improvement is soon perceptible.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you findits
impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples,
Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it ob
structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it when
it is foul ; your feelings will tell you when. Keep
the blood pure, and the health of the system wily
follow.

WISTAR'S BALSAM
WILD CHERRY!
IRE GREAT REMEDY FOR
CONSUMPTION!
and acknowledged by many prominent physicians
to be the most Reliable Preparation ever introduc
ed for the RELIEF and CURE of all
LUNG COMPLAINTS.
This well known remedy is offered to the pu' lie,
sanctioned by the experience of over forty years,
and when resorted to in season seldom fails to effect
a speedy cure of
Coughs, Colds, Croup, Bronchitis, Influenza,
Whooping Cough, Hoarseness, Pains or Sore
ness in the Chest or Side, Bleeding at
the Lungs, Liver Complaint, Ice. •
All of which he is prepared to sell at greatly re
duced prices.
Don't forget the new stand in the Diamond. Old
customers and the public generally are invited to
CONSUMPTION I call.
Jan. 4,'71.
CAN BE
CURED
by a timely resort to this Standard Remedy, as is
proved by hundreds of testimonials received by
the proprietors.
Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry
does not dry up a Cough and leave the cause be
hind, as is the case with must preparations, but it
loosens and cleanses the lungs and allays irrita
Lion, thus removing the canoe of the complaint.
THIS HOUSEHOLD REMEDY
Should be in the hands of every family and indi
vidual. as its prompt use for a slight cough or
cold will cause immediate relief, while cases of
long standing and apparently incurable character
often yield to its wonderful curative powers, and
its great adaptation to the wants of man when
cted.
CLERGYMEN, LAWYERS, SINGERS,
and all those whose occupation requires an unusu
al exercise of the vocal organs, will find this the
only preparation which will effectually and in
stantaneously relieve their difficulties.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
Remember that the genuine Wistar's Balsam has
on the outside wrapper the signature of "I.
BUTTS." and the printed name of the proprietors,
"SETH W. FOWLE SONS, BOSTON." All
others are base imitations. Examine the wrapper
carefully before purchasing.
PREPARED BY
SETH W. FOWLE & SONS, Boston,
