FABM PRODUCE,

A s aperient a n d Stomacic preparation of IRON' purified el
Oxygen and Carbon by combustion in Hydrogen. Sanctioned by the highest Medical Authoritiea, both in Europe and
th« United States, and prescribed in their practicc.
The experience of thousands daily proves t h a t po preparation of I r o n can be compared with it. Impurities of the
blood, depression of vital energy, pale and otherwise sickly
complexions indicate its necessity in almost every conceiva- I
ble ease.
I n n o x i o u s ID all maladies in which it has been tried, it has
proved absolutely curative in each of the following c o m - !
plaints, viz:
In Debility, Nervous Affections, E m a c i a t i o n , .
Dyspepsia, Constipation, Dlarrhcca, Dysentery, I n - j
cipient C o n s u m p t i o n , Scrofulous Tuberculosis, Salt
R h e u m , MLismenstruation, W h i t e s , Chlorosis, Liver
Complaints. Chronic Headaches, Rheumatism, Int e r m i t t e n t F e v e r s , P i m p l e s o n t h e F a c e , ftc.
In esses of GKSKKAI. DKBILITV. whether the result of acute
disease, or of (be continued diminution of nervous and mus-1
cular energy f r o m nervous c o m p l a i n t s oue trial of tbis restorative has proved successful to a&extent which no description' nor written attestation would r e n d e r c r e d i h l c . Invalid*,
so long bed-ridden as to have bccome forgotten in their owp
neighborhoods, have suddenly re-appeared in the busy world
as if j u s t returned f r o m protracted travel in a distant land.
Some very signal instances of this kind are attested of female
Sufferers," emaciated victims of a p p a r e n t marasmus, sanguineous exhaustion, critical changes, and that complication
of nervous and dyspeptic aversion to air and exercise for
which the physician has no name.
In NBRVotra A r r s c T i o H s of all kinds, and for reasons fsrailiar to medical men, the operation of this preparation of
Iron must necessarily be salutary, for, unlike tbe old oxides,
it i s vigorously tonic, without being e x c i t i n g and overheating; and gently, regularly aperient, even in the most obstinate cases of costiveifess w i t h o u t ever b e l u g a gastric purgative, or inflicting a disagreeable sensation.
I n this latter property, among others, which makes it sa
remarkably effectual a n d permanent a remedy for 1'n.Ks, upon
which It also appears to e x e r t a distinct and specific action,
by dispersing the local t e n d e n c y which forms them.
