This we'.l known Anti-Dusentcrie" ad Worm Medicine has proved successful these twelve years past; and is universally acknowledged by all . who have tried it, to be far superior to any other medicine ever employed in the diseases for which il is recom- mendrd. It is peifcctly sate, arid no child will refuse to take it. Worms being" rspecully apt to infest persons of debilitated digestive organs and emaciated Constitu tion?, much mischief is often done by lhe ordinary worm medicines, which generally consist of the strongest purgatives, calomel, j that destroyer of th consttiutionltilu-i pink roo4, spirits of urpenine wormseed oil. &c. Scc Articles Ofthis kind may de stroy worms, buf thcyudRrifrg rhe-atnnrachy often materially injure lhe general peayh, without removing the cause. Swaim's Vermifuge has lhe peculiar advantage of removing the cause of wormsj !y giving vigor and healthy action to-" lue stomach, bowels, and organs of digestion, thereby relieving measles, croup, hooping r ouph, &e. -This medicine, by invigoratiirg the inle nal functions, strengthening lhe organs of digestion, and removing the primary ' cause which creates morbid 6ecre'ions, will reliever Bowel Oomplaintsf'holir, Dysentftry, Dyspepsia, and the whole train of biliary alfections, Sick Headach, Acidity of the Stomal h, Foul Prealh, Bleeilirvg'Pileg, &c." It is an antidote in the early stages of Fever (iiyl Cholera Morbus. Asa general Family Medicine, it stands unrivalled, tas it is applicable to most of the diseases to which children are subject. Swaim's Vermifuge will be found of some utility lo person who occasionally indulge in the conviviality f the table; a dose taken before dinner will anticipate the cfU'cts of acidity of the stornarli, not unfiequcntly produced by win .. In the neglect of this, however, a dose in the mum In;', or the foDoKing morning, will, in most instances, rct-ltre lhe tone of the Stomach. Families resident in the country, and isolated in a measure from medical advice, travelers journeying to the far west, or bct?nd lo distant ports,, seminaries and all pulilic institutions and i hariiuble associations will find this remedy, f nnst an tly at hand, of great utility.
