tues are proverbial—in so many instances having
raised from the very verge of the tomb the subjects
of diseases in their most terrible forms, as testimo
nials of the most ezalted character from individuals
and institutions testify. In the descriptive circular
may be found one from the Masonic and Odd Fellows'
Lodges of Norfolk. The medicines able to give relief,
are numerous*and valuable ;but if persons are willing
to suspend their use and submit to a course of ELIX
IR VITA, a cure at once can be effected in ord.nary
cases, only one or two weeks being required, and
those regarded as utterly incurable only three or four
weeks. It will thoroughly purify the blood. In
scrofula. Rheumatism, indigestion, kc., it stand*
alone. Its action on the Bowels, Liver and Kidneys
are direct and efficient. Depraved humors in the
circulation affect the vital organs. A course of two
or three weeks will relieve the system of all morbid
matter, a reaction ensues, an incontrollable appetite
with high and vigorous health the result. In deep
and heavy colds, that often end in a rapid decline,
nothing is comparable. For mercurial and syphilitic
diseases it is truly the only medicine known, not
leaving a vestige of the disease. Pursue the course
above, unless the bones have commenced decaying.
If so, at the end of three weeks suspend its use 3
weeks, recommence, aad at the end of three weeks
the body will be restored to Its original health.
