T ill E Sin of Ignorance is easily forgiven. Many of
_L the "nostrums" of the present day are put out by
persons who have no knowledge oft he science of medi
ciiie in theory or practice, and in order to hide their ig
norance cry out loudly against the "Ignorant Pretend
ers," and bribe embers to boast fur them, which oft
times has gulled the unsuspecting. and fur want of a
proper knowledge of the diseases they pretend to cure,
no doubt mink they cure when they do not, therefore
they are to be pitted, but not half so much as those who
take their '•artserable compounds," but they not only
lose their money, but miss the advantage of that ne
cessary advice which the rend practical physician, is
ulwtn•: able to give. We look to the tailor for an im
! prevenient in the !male old ress; to the medicul man for
an improvement in the science of medicine—and this
accounts for the great superiority of Dr Swayne's
Compound Syrup of U't/d Cherry over all other
medicines PN vr offered to the public for the cure of all
disease, of the Lungs and Breast, Cougk., Colds,
ConNumpl imi, Asthma, f•pitting Blood, Liver Com
plaint. Pain in the Side and Breast, Broken Constitu
, that, &c. Remember always to inquire for the name
of Dr Snreyne. as all preparations which have the
name of Wild Clt , rry attached were stolen from the

prepared by Dr Swayne, corner of Eighth and Race

AMPLE experience has proved that no combine
lien of medicine has ever been so effectual in
removing the above diseases, as JAYNE'S A LTER
NATiv P., or Life Preservative. It has ciilmted cures
that halve been truly astonishing, not only of Cancer
and other diseases of that class, but has removed the
most stubborn diseases of the Skin, Swelling, Liver
Complaint, Dyspepsia, &c., &c.
This medicine enters into the circulation and eradi
cates diseases wherever located. It purifies the blood
and other fluids of the body, removes obstruction in
the pews of the skin, and reduces enlargements of the
glands or bones. It increases the appetite, removes
headache and drowsiness, invigorates the whole sys
tem, and imparts animation to the diseased and debit
itated constitution. There is nothing superior to it in
the whole materia medico. It is perfectly safe and
extremely pleasant, and has nothing of the disgusting
nausea accompanying the idea of swallowing medi
cine.
