Walker's California VinegW Bitten are a purely Vegetable prcparntion, made chiefly from the nativeherbs found on thelowcr ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The questiou is almost daily asked, "What is the cause of the unparalleled suceess of Vineoab Bitters?" Our anewer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patiënt recovers hia health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principie, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualïties of Vinkqab Bitters in healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestión or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases. Jf men will eiijoy irood lioalüi, let them use A ixegar Bitters as a medicine, and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants ki every forra. o Pers can fake these Bittors according to directions, and remain long txnwell, proTided their bones are not stroyed by minera] [toisón or other means, and vital oipans wasted beyond repair. . Grateful Tli.onsands prodaim Vjnegar Bittees the most wonderfnl Invigorant that evcr sustaincd the sinking systera. Bilious, Reinittent, arnl íntermitteilt Fevers,.whicb aro so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivera throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Elinoia, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Eio Grande, Pearl, Alai bama, Mobile, Savannah, Roanolw, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our ontire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remaikably so during seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably aceompanied by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal visceva. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially' necessary. There is no catharticfor the purpose equalto Dn. J.Walkeb's Vineoab Bittees, as they will speedily remove the dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secrctioiis of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestiva organs. Dyspepsia or Indigestión, Head aohe.Pain in the Shoulders,Coughs,Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomaoh, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attac-ks, Palpitation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the región of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertisement. Scrofula, or King's Evil, VTiiite Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, SweUed Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affectiona, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc, etc. In these, as in all other oonstitutional Diseases, Walkee's Vinbgab BrrTEBs havo shown their great carative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Kheuniatism, Gout, Bilious, Eemittent md Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, these Bitters Lave no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.- Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, euch as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Minera, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To giiard against this, take a dose of Walkeu's Vinegab Bitteks occasionaüy. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions,Tetter, Salt Kheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Eingworms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of theSkin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelniinitics, will free the system from worms hke these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood or the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence tbat improvement is soon perceptible. Jaundice.- In all cases of jaundice, rest assured that your liver is not doing ita work. The only sensible treatment is to promote the secretion of the bile and favor its removal. For this purpose use VlNEGAR BlTIEKS. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood henever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul ; your feelings will teil you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. R. II. mcDONALD 4c CO., Druggiets and General Agenta, 8an Francisco, Califor. nia, aud cor. Washington aud Cliarlton Sts..
