and most convenient Worm Medicine

Compound rup. is is so concentrated that the £f>e i"
very small, so combined as to ensure a purgative opera
tion. and so palatable as to be taken, not only w sth ease,
but with positive pleasure.
Th'* precise composition of th! syrup and the mede of
preparing it, are th ■ r- sult cf a series of eiperiroents
continued for years Before offering it for sale, it was
subjected to the test of experience in the hands of emi
nent physicians, in Philadelphia and elsewhere, whohave
recommended it in the highest terms, and still employ It
in th-ir practice. In addition to tin* v\ idencc of its mer
its, we oiler the following. select- d from a comber of un
•olicited testimonials.
Ist A distinguished physician of Virginia, of truch
experience, writ- e of it thus :
"1 should have written before thl*. but fell disposed
first to try the efficacy of your Vermifuge. 1 have used
more than halt the quantity received, and the experiment .

Independent of the smallness of the dose, and the plca
s.antness of the sirup (great advantages in doting chil
dren! the advantage of administering it under a variety i
of circumstances, enhances its value; indeed there is
scarcely a condition of the system ir. w hich It may net
be administered. Yours, Ac."
'2d A respectable physician of l.ehunon county, In this
slate, writes
" I have been in the habitof prescribing your Compound
Hyrupof Bpigelia for some time past, and have four,c. it
an excellent worm medicine, particularly for children.—
Please forward per bearer 5 doz bottle*.—Yours,

had previously sold the syrup, writes
"Since my return home. | find that your S_\ rup of sin

have sold what we had on hand, and il gave such satis
taction that it is now called for evev day You tvill phase

Philadelphia, slated, that some time since he had beer. aje

advised a trial of Harris, Turner A Hale's Compound

was all that remained in the store. A day or two after
this the gentleman returning to the store, expressed his
surprise and delight at the effect of the Syrup, declaring
