If you have contracted the terrible disease, which when
once seated in the system, will surely go down from one
generation to another, undermining the constitution, and
Mapping the very vita! fluids of life, do not trust yourself
in the hands of Quacks, who start up every day in a city
like this, and fill the papers with glaring fal-ehoods too
well caleulated to deceive the young and those not ac
quainted with their tricks. You cannot lie too careful in
the selection of a remedy in these eases.
The fluid extract Ruchu has been pronounced hy emi
nent Physicians
THE G UK A TEST RKMKDY EVER KNOWN.
It is a medicine perfectly pleasant ill its taste, and very
innocent in its action, and yet so thorough that it annihi
lates every particle of the rank and poisopous virus of this
disease- and, unlike other remedies, it does not dry up
the disease in the tdood.
Constitutional Debility, brought hy self-abuse, a most
terrible disease, which has brought thousands of the hu
man race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant
hopes of parents, and blighting in the bod the glorious
ambition of many a noble vouth, can be cured by this
INFALLIBLE REMEDY.
And as a medicine \\ hich must lienelit everybody from the
simply delicate to the confined and despairing invalid, no

from excess of Mercury, exposure and imprudence in

Scald Head, Ulcerations of the Throat and Legs. I'ains
and Swellings of the Rones, Tetter, I'implex on the face
and all Scaly Eruptions of the Skin.
This article is now prescribed by some of the most dis
tinguished Physicians in the Country, and has proved
more efficient in practice than any preparation of Sarsa
parilia yet offered to the public. Several eases of secon
dary Syphilic, Mercurial and Scrofulous diseases have en
tirely recovered in the incurable wards of our public insti
tutions, which had for many years re-isted every mode of
treatment that could lie devised. These cases furnish
striking examples of the salutary effects of this medicine
in arresting some of the most inveterate diseases, after the
glands were destroyed and the bones already affected.
