A highly valuable preparation. capable, liom the promptitude of Its action, of clearing the system in a few hours of every worm. The origin, development, and support of worms, in Ike human system, are to be attributed to a depraved and debilitated condi tion of the stomach aud bowels; it being an established fact that where the digestion is uotmpalrcd, and general powers of the system in a healthy slate, they can find no habitation.
