TEsa. Barker, of Canton, Til., says:!
Mr. n. O. Farrell's Arabian Liniment has cured
some bad cases here, which every other remedy had
failed in ; one was a white swelling aud contracted
cords in the lee of a boy 12 years old. The leg had
withered awav. and was so contracted that be had
no nse of it. Three doctors had tried their skill np
on it in vain, and he was fast sinking to the grave
when the bov's father was induced to trv H. ii. Far-
rell'e Arabian Liniment. Before the first bottle was
used np he came to Mr. B.'s store, and the first
words he said were. "Mr. Barker. I want all that
Iniment you have in the store; the one bottle I got
did my boy more good than all that had ever been
done liefore." That boy is now well and hear

medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures
of Consumption than any other remedy known to
the American public. They are compounded of
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which
can be injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedies advertised as cures for Consumption,
probably contain opium, which is a somewhat dan
gerous drug in all caces, aud if taken freely by con
sumptive patients, it must do great injury; for its
tendency is to confine the morbid matter in the
system, whicU, of course, must mane a cure impos

to contain a particle of opium; it is composed of
powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungB, liver, stomach and blood, and tnns corrects
all morbid secretions, aud expel all the diseased
matter from the body . These are the only means
by! which Consumption can be enred, and as
