THE Sin of Ignorance is easily forgiven. Many of the "nostrums" of the present day are put out by persons who have no knowledge ofthe science ofmerli cine in theory or practice, and in order to hide their ig norance cry out lousily against the "Ignorant Pretend era," and bribe others to boast for them, which oft times has gulkod the unsuspecting, and for want of a proper knowledge of the diseases they pretend to cure, no doubt think they cure when they do not, therefore they are to be pitied, but not half so much as those who take their "miserable compounds," but they not only lose their money, but miss the advantage of that ne cessary advice which the real practical physician, is always able to give. We look to the tailor for an im provement in the mode ofdress; to the medical man for an improvement in the science of medicine—and this accounts for the great superiority of Dr Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry over all other medicines ever offered to the public for the cure of all diseases of the Lungs and Breast, Coughs, Colds, Consumption, Asthma, Spitting Blood, Liver Com plaint, Pain in the Side and Breast, Broken Constitu . tion, &c. Remember always to inquire for the name of Dr Swayne, as all preparations which have the name of Wild Cherry attached were stolen from the great original preparation. The genuine is only prepared by Dr Swa,yrte. corner of Eighth and Race streets, Philadelphia. For sale by ap 5 REMOVA L. JAMES UOWASID & CO. FRESH SPRING GOODS Removal by Fire.
