Season of the I Vrar has come when extreme care -hould be taken or the health. Nearly all the diseases of Summer are traceable to exposures in the Spring, l ir to ihe neglect of those unheal means which "htuild have been resort ed to. It is not surprising that the human sys. tern should lie powerfully aft'icied at this time. The whole realm of nature shows that wonderl'ul in. ftnences an noroud. The outer world awakes to new life, and man and beast and all animated existence .r. .AV..rl 'n. , th. nmu thvir..Hi ..... ..

As SrKIMi MEDICINES, the Graetenberg Vegetable Pills, the Graefenhrrtr Health Bitters, and the Grai fenberc; SarsaparilU Compontiil, should sup.-rceiled all others. For uui veral use the Pills and Fitters art of incalculable value. Those who take them need not fear tke enervating efforts ofthe Summer which is at hana. The ohjact ol the present Bulletin is to apprize the public of til.- acknnn led ired superiority oft In Graelellbi re SAR.SArAKIl.LA COMPOUND. Sarsaparilla is of vast efficacy in clean. imr the system from its foulest taints; hut it mut be prepared on the most scieatiftr principles and in the mot lalthful manner. It ia not eunuch that we put it in lartre vessels or vats to steep or boil, mixing it with great quantities of molasses and water. An article t litis manufactured must injure the tone ofthe Stomach, aiipbecompaialiv. lv inert. I he Sarsaparilla Compound manufactured by the Graefenberg Company, is a most powerful concentration. It is to Saisaparilla what quinine ia to Peruvian Rark; one bottle containing more virtue than ten of a nj oilier ever before manufactured. The dose is half a tea-spoonfut only; so that there are mure dosea in a bottle than there is in the largest bottle in market of any other manufacture. It ia almost literally a Sulphate of Sars-inarilla. The public are well advised of the nes of Sarsaparilla, by meant of the numerous advertisements which crowd the press. It is unnecessary fur us, therefore, to trouble the reader with a recapitulation of the matter. We would simplyadd that all persons who have made up their minds to use the article should purchase no other than that made by this C2. mPny.
