It is be cause Ihey don't touch the cause of the dis ease. The cause of all ague and billious dis eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by its NATURAL ANTIDOTE, and all diseases caused by it disappears at once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless medicine. The cerlificate of the celebrated chemist. J. R Chilton, of New York, to this effect, is attached lo every bottle; therefore if it does no good it cue do no barm. This is more than can be said of Quinine, Arsenic, or any ionic in existence, as their use is ruinous lo the constitution and brings on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per son lo feel perfectly well for a single moment. In illustration ol these truths I annex some extracts from a letter just received from a Physician: Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56. Jts. A. RHODES. Esq.— Dear Sir: Yours of 2d inst. is at hand. The Cure arrived late ; lust year and the difficulty in gelling any one to try it was greatly increased from the fact that a remedy had been introduced whioh was growing in favor with the public, as be ing better than using Quinine, —not knowing ! 1 presume that ihe remedy they needed to \ escape taking Quinine, continued the DRUG j ITSELF! I This remedy,(known a* "Smith's Tonic,") j would invariably BREAK an ague, but it did j not CURE it, and it would ufien return with j renewed vigor. The one circumstance I I deemed in your favor, if I could institute a j test comparison between it and your CURE, j The following is the result: Three persons took your "Cute," all nf which were cases of "Quotidian Intermit- i lent Fever," of many weeks standing. They ] had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa- ■ eionully missing a chill, hut it was, (as lit all i such cases,! slowly wearing litem out, and j laying the foundation of other and severer j maladies. I did sucreetl in effecting a radi cal cure of all three of these cases with your j remedy, atttl Ihey tiave not hail a chill since, j In all three ol these cases the "Smith's Ton- j ic" had been used, and would, as before sta- J ted, break the chill, but after a period or two j had elapsed it would return. 1 think there will be no difficulty now in giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of any other remedy now in use here. &c. &c. WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D. RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or Antidote to Mularia, the only harmless reme dv in existence, is equal'y certain as a PRE VENTIVE, as a "CURE." 'lake it when yon feel the chill coming on, and you will never have a single one. JAMES A. RHODES, Proprietor. Providence, R.J. For sale by Druggists generally. June 18, 1856. To Contractu™.

J. A. RHODES, Esq.: Dear Si:—As 1 took your medicine to soil on consignment, "no euro no pay," I take pleasure in slating its ef fects as reported to me by three brothers who live in this place, and their testimony is a fair epeutmen of all I have received. W. S. CONKLIN told me—"l had taken nine bottles ol Christie's Ague Balsain, and continually run down while using it until rr.ylnngsand liver war* congested to that degree that blood discharged from my mouth and tiowels, so that all thought it impossible for me to lire through another chill. The doctors too did all they could for me, but thought f must tfie.* Nothing did me any good until 1 got Ihodes' Fever and Ague Cure, which at once relieved mo of the dis tress and nausea at my stomach and pain in my head anil bowels, and produced a perma nent cure in a short time." H. M. CONKLIN says—"l bad been tak ing medicine of as good attoctoras we have in our country, and taken any quantity of quinine and specifies without any good result, from 25th August to 17th December. But seeing how nicely it operated on my brother, I got a bottle of Rhode's Fever and Ague Cure, which effected a permanent cure by using two Ih.rds of a bottle." S. M CONKLIN was not here, but both the other brothers say his case was the same as H. M's 1 sold the medicine to both the same day, and the cute was as speedy from the same small quantity, end I might so spe cify. Yours with respect, A. HUNTINGTON. The above speaks for itself. Good proof as it is, it is of no better tenor than the vast number of like certificates 1 have already published, and the still greater amount that is continually pouring in to me. One thing mote. Last year 1 had occasion to caution the public in these words: "I notice one firm who have taken one of my generel circulars, substituted the name of their nostrum for n.y medicine, and ihfen with brazen impudence end their pamphlet with the exclamation, 'Let iffe Proprietor of any other medicine say as much il be dares,' &c &c. Now I take pleasure in saying that the Caution referred to the same "Dr. Christie's Ague Balsam" that is mentioned in the above certificate. There are several other industrious people who are applying to their puitouoiis trash all that 1 publish about my Fever und Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, except the cer tificates ol cures, and the certificate of the celebrated Chemist, Dr. James 11. Chilton, of New York, in favor of its perfectly harm less character, which is attached to euery bottle. These will always serve to distin guish my medicine from imitations. JAS. A.
