TH E Sin of Ignorance is easily forgiven. Many of
T
the "nostrums" of the present day are put out by
persons who have no knowledge ofthe science of morn
eine in theory or practice, and in older to hide their ig
norance cry out loudly against the" Ignorant Preiend
ers," and bribe others to boast for them, which oft
times has gulled the unsuspecting, and fur 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 asthose 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 die 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 fur the cure of all
diseases of the Lungs and Breast, Cough., Colds,
Consumption, Asthma, Spitting Blond, 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
gleam original preparation. The genuine is only
prepared by Dr Simple, corner of Eighth and Race
streets, Philudelphil. For sale by
