GRE/A.T EN`GLIBIE REMEDY!
The most Valuable Apring & %tomer Medicine
IN 'ens weint.n.
DR. HALSEY'S FOREST WINE!!
PA FRONIZED by the nobility and Medical
ulty of England, and esteemed the most extra
°Winery medicine in the world.
Medicines containing molasses or liquorice, like
the boasted Sarsaparillas, require many large bottle.'
to produce the slightest change in health. The
FOREST WINE is altegether a different—article.
It contains no syrups to give it consistency, but ac
quires its excellent flavor, and, powerful medicinal
properties from the vegetable plants of which it is
composed. The Forest Wine combines the virtues
of the
Wild Cherry, Dandelion, Yellow Dock,
and Sarsaparilla!
with other valuable plants whose properties are
still more effective.
Its high concentration renders it one of the most
efficient medicines now in use. Sometimes less
than a singe, bottle restores the lingering Fitlent
, from weakness, debits y, and sickness, to strong an
vigorous health. Every dt.se shows its good effect,
on the constitution, and improves the state of the
health. The Forest Wine is recommended, in the
strongest terms, for all complaints of the :Stomach.
Liver, Kidneys, Nervous Disorders, Bilious Affec
tions, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite. Jaun.
dice, Female ComMainis, Scrofula. and all 'Disor
