The answer is plain. Give the Vermifuge, which
will be sore to do good' if they have, no worms, and if
they have, it will destroy and eradicate them with a
certainty and precision truly astonifiting.
There is no mercury or mineral in it. Mercury is

enges, but rely upon this. Every person will be con
vinced on one trial that it le the most perfect cure
ever invented. I
.

The immense sale that this Vermifuge has, Is a sure
test of its value and the estimation in which ills field
by families. It would be quite too expensive to pub
lab. the volumes of certificates that have been given
for this article, and the users of it are 'requested to
spread the name to a persons whom they think will
be benefitted by it.
Speak of it in ell families, land you will do your do.

probilion of all good men, said will receive your reward
in heaven.
We call on all good citizens to make known the of

Hundreds of children and adults are lost yearly with
worms, when some other cause has been supposed to
be the true one.
ft is admitted by all doctors that SCATO2).I men, wo.
man. or child exists, but! what sooner or later are
troubled with worms, and ifol hundreds of cases. sad to
relate, a supposed fever, seerlatina, cold, or some other
ailing carries of the doefet of the human family—
while in truth" they die of worms! and these could
have been eradicated ins 4sy , by the use of one bottle
of 'ORRICK'S VERMIFEGE.

know that even if the case was not worms, this reme
dy could not by any poskibility do hurt—but always
