    BONPLAND'S VEGETABLE

    REMEDY.

    FOR

    THE

    CURE

    OF

    FEVER

    AND

    AGUE,

    and

    other

    FEVERS

    of

    a

    BILIOUS

    CHARACTER

    ISAAC OSGOOD, Proprietor.

    This

    truly

    valuable

    remedy

    was compounded

    after

    the

    experi-

    ence

    of

    several

    years,

    in

    the treatment of

    intermittent

    and

    remit-

    tent

    fever,

    and

    other

    forms

    of

    bilious

    diseases, as

    they

    occur in

    various

    parts

    of

    the

    United

    States.

    The

    unparalleled

    success

    which

    has

    followed

    its

    use,

    in every

    case

    in

    which

    it

    was

    prescribed, has

    induced

    the

    proprietor

    to

    bring

    it

    before

    the public

    in

    such

    a

    manner, as

    that all

    who are

    suffering under

    these

    distressing complaints,

    may avail

    themselves

    of its

    beneficial

    effects.

    It

    is

    not offered to

    the

    public

    as

    an

    uni-

    versal

    panacea

    for all

    diseases

    to which

    the

    human

    frame is sub-

    ject,

    but as

    a

    purifier

    of

    the

    blood,

    by removing

    the

    obstructions

    of

    the

    liver and

    promoting

    the

    flow

    of

    bile.

    It

    is

    especially intended

    for

    the

    prevention

    and

    cure

    of

    intermittent

    fever,

    or

    as

    it

    is

    com-

    monly

    called,

    Fever

    and

    Ague

    ;

    this

    being

    one

    of

    the

    most

    preva-

    lent

    forms

    of

    bilious disease.

    Although

    the symptoms

    of

    this

    dis-

    ease.

    are pretty

    generally understood

    ;

    still,

    it may

    not be

    amiss

    to

    state

    them in

    the order in which they commonly

    occur.

    INTERMITTENT

    FEVER.

    The

    fit,

    or

    paroxysm

    of

    this distressing

    form

    of

    fever,

    is ushered

    in by

    a great sense

    of lassitude

    or weakness,

    frequent

    yawning

    and

    stretching,

    an

    uncomfortable

    feeling

    of

    weakness

    of

    the

    whole

    body, with

    aching

    pains

    in

    the

    loins

    and extremities.

    After

    these

    symptoms

    have

    continued for a

    length

    of

    time, the patient

    begins

    to feel

    a

    slight

    sensation

    of chilliness and

    coldness

    along

    the

    back,

    which

    is

    often

    attended

    with

    frequent

    yawning

    and

    a disposition

    to

    change

    the

    position

    of

    the

    body. The

    extremities

    then

    feel

    cold

    and

    benumbed, and are

    evidently

    shrunken

    or

    diminished

    in

    size.

    Sometimes

    the sensation of

    cold

    is

    very

    intense,

    at

    others

    it

    is

    but slight,

    this

    is

    succeeded

    by

    rigors

    terminating

    in

    universal

    shaking.

    After

    the sense

    of

    coldness

    has

    been

    endured

    for

    some

    time,

    its

    intensity

    begins

    to

    abate gradually,

    and

    is

    eventually

    suc-

    ceeded

    by a

    glow,

    which

    spreads

    itself

    over

    the

    whole

    body,

    at

    first

    irregularly,

    by

    transient

    flushes,

    soon,

    however,

    succeeded

    by

    a

    steady,

    dry

    and

    burning

    heat, which

    rises

    much

    above

    the

    natural

    standard

    pains

    arise

    in

    the head,

    and flying

    pv.ins

    are

    felt

    over

    different

    parts

    of the

    body.

    The

    pulse

    is

    quick,

    strong

    and

    hard.

    The

    tongue

    is

    white,

    and

    there

    is

    great

    thirst,

    etc.

    A

    moisture

    is

    at

    length

    observed to

    break

    out

    over

    the

    face

    and

    neck, which

    soon

    becomes

    an

    equable

    universal

    perspiration.

    The

    heat

    now

    comes

    down

    to the

    natural

    standard, the

    pulse

    is

    diminished

    in

    frequency

    and

    becomes

    full and

    free, breathing

    becomes

    easy,

    and all

    the

    functions are

    restored

    to their

    natural

    standard.

    After

    a

    certain

    interval

    of

    one,

    two,

    or

    three days,

    the

    paroxysm

    again

    returns

    in

    the

    same

    way as

    above

    described.

    Such

    is

    the

    usual course of the

    disease,

    but it

    is

    subject to

    great

    variation.

    In

    some cases

    the

    symptoms

    are

    all

    much

    milder,

    at

    others

    more

    aggravated.

    Directions.

    It is

    absolutely

    necessary

    to

    cleanse thoroughly

    the

    stomach

    and

    bowels,

    before

    taking

    the

    remedy,

    either

    by

    ten

    or fifteen

    grains

    of

    calomel,

    or

    two

    or

    three

    blue

    pills,

    or an

    active

    dose

    of

    any

    of

    the

    usual

    cathartic medicines.

    Breaking

    the

    chill,

    is

    not curing

    the

    disease

    ;

    the

    cure is but

    just

    commenced. If

    the Patient

    should have

    had

    the disease

    for

    a long time,

    or

    been

    a

    long

    time

    exposed

    to

    its

    causes, it

    will

    therefore require

    a

    greater period

    for

    its

    cure,

    and

    two

    or

    more

    bottles

    may

    be

    necessary.

    If

    it

    should

    prove

    too

    bitter

    to the

    taste,

    it

    can

    be

    taken in

    half

    a

    wine-glass

    of

    milk.

    While the

    chill

    is

    on,

    the

    patient

    should

    be

    kept

    as comfortable

    as

    possible,

    and

    should

    drink warm gruel

    or

    herb tea.

    During the

    hot

    stage,

    should

    the

    fever

    get

    too

    high,

    it

    may

    be

    moderated by

    giving ten

    or

    fifteen

    drops of

    Laudanum, and

    apply-

    ing

    cold

    to the

    head,

    by

    means

    of

    a

    rag

    dipped

    in

    vinegar

    and

    water,

    and by

    drinking

    cooling

    accidulated

    drinks.

    The stomach

    and

    bowels having

    been

    properly cleansed

    by

    the

    action of

    the

    cathartic,

    the

    person

    must

    then commence

    taking

    the

    Remedy.

    It

    must be

    taken during

    the

    intermission., commenc-

    ing

    soon

    after the

    sweating stage is over. Take

    a

    teaspoonful

    every

    hour

    regularly,

    until

    the

    disease

    is

    checked,

    and

    after

    that,

    take

    a teaspoonful

    four

    times

    a

    day,

    continuing

    to

    do

    so

    for

    several

    days,

    so

    as

    to fortify

    the

    Constitution against

    a

    second

    attack.

    If

    the

    patient

    is

    from

    six

    to

    twelve years

    of

    age,

    the

    dose

    should

    be

    half

    a

    teaspoonful

    at

    a time.

    If

    from

    four

    to

    six

    years,

    a

    quar-

    ter of

    a

    teaspoonful, and

    in

    this

    proportion

    for

    younger

    children.

    The

    remedy

    is perfectly

    harmless,

    so

    that

    these

    quantities

    need

    not

    be

    too

    strictly

    observed

    twice

    the

    quantity

    could

    be

    given

    without

    doing

    any

    injury,

    but

    the

    dose

    a

    c

    staled is

    found

    ft

     

    sufficient.

    FEVER,

    Bilious

    Remittent

    Fever,

    comes

    on

    in

    a

    similar

    manner

    as

    Intermittent

    Fever,

    or

    Ague

    and

    Fever,

    and

    resembles

    it

    in

    many

    respects,

    but

    the

    paroxysms

    or fits,

    suc-

    ceed

    each

    other

    so

    soon,

    that

    at first

    there is

    hardly

    any

    inter-

    mission

    or interval,

    when

    the

    patient

    feels

    relief.

    The

    treatment

    should

    be

    similar to

    that

    for

    intermittent

    fever, after

    the

    system

    has been

    somewhat

    relieved

    by

    gentle

    purging, and

    the

    use

    of

    cooling

    drinks

    after

    which

    take the

    remedy

    as

    already

    directed.

    There

    are

    many forms

    of

    intermittent

    disease,

    such

    as

    periodi-

    cal

    headache, nervous

    headache,

    &c,

    which

    are

    often

    cured

    by

    taking

    a

    teaspoonful

    of the

    remedy

    three

    times

    daily.

    The

    proprietor of this

    valuable

    remedy,

    could produce hundreds

    of certificates

    from persons

    who have

    used

    it,

    and

    who have

    been

    restored

    to perfect

    health, but

    it is

    believed

    that

    the

    publication

    of them

    would

    not

    be

    more

    satisfactory

    than

    THIS

    IS

    TO

    CERTIFY,

    that

    I have

    the

    Medicine

    known

    Bonpland's

    Remedy

    for

    effects

    in

    hundreds of cases,

    I

    should

    deem it

    an

    act of

    injustice

    to

    the

    public, if I

    withheld

    my

    opinion of

    its

    merits. It

    is

    one of

    the

    best popular

    Remedies I

    have

    ever

    known, for

    the

    permanent

    cure

    of

    Intermittent

    Fever,

    and

    other Fevers

    of

    a

    New

    York,

    Nov. 12th,

    1847.

    Mr

    Osgood.

    Your

    medicine

    has

    performed

    wonders,

    as

    the

    above

    certificate

    will

    show. You told me

    to

    find one

    of the hardest

    cases

    that

    I

    could

    hear

    of,

    and

    give

    a bottle

    to

    the

    person to

    test

    its

    efficacy.

    This

    is

    the

    case,

    and of which

    I

    wrote

    you some

    time

    since,

    that

    I

    had

    in hand.

    He is

    a

    man

    who

    has

    had

    the

    advantages

    of

    an

    education

    only

    to

    a

    very limited

    extent

    ;

    a

    Carpenter

    by

    trade,

    and

    when I

    saw him

    first,

    was

    in

    the

    condition

    he

    describes.

    He

    had

    had

    the

    Ague

    for

    two

    years,

    was

    very

    much

    bloated,

    like

    a

    person

    with

    the dropsy

    ;

    and was not

    able

    to

    work

    without

    having

    chills every

    day

    or two. He

    haJ

    taken

    only

    about

    two-thirds

    of

    the

    medicine

    in

    tne

    bottle,

    and

    says he is now

    perfectly

    well

    and

    hardy, and

    that he

    has

    not

    been

    in so

    good health for three

    years

    past, and

    thinks

    your

    medicine is

    the

    only thing

    that has

    in

    fact,

    saved

    his

    life.

    He

    had

    tried *

    Osgood's

    Cholagogue

    and

    every

    other

    article

    of

    medicine

    he could hear

    of,

    but

    their

    effects

    were

    no

    better

    than

    water.

    I

    was

    about

    to write

    to

    you the

    result of

    the

    experiment,

    when

    vours, by

    my

    brother,

    came

    to

    hand.

    1848.

    Mr.

    Osgood.

    Toledo, August 8tk,

    1848.

    I have

    had

    the

    Fever

    and

    Ague

    tor

    two

    years

    and twelve days,

    without

    cessation

    ;

    and

    have

    also

    had the

    most

    skillful physicians

    in the

    country,

    first,

    Dr.

    Luckey

    of

    Ottawa

    County,

    second,

    Dr.

    Rider,

    of

    Lower

    Sandusky,

    third a

    German

    physician at

    Wood-

    ville,

    as

    also

    three

    different

    ones

    in

    this

    place

    ;

    viz.

    :

    Bostwick,

    Clark,

    and

    Ferguson.

    I

    got

    so bad,

    and

    became

    so

    badly

    bloated,

    that

    I

    had

    to

    cut

    open

    my boots,

    and

    have

    my

    clothes made

    larger.

    At

    last

    I could

    scarcely walk

    alone,

    and

    was

    finally

    cured by

     

    Bonplands

    Vegetable Remedy

    for

    Fever and Ague.

    The

    fifth

    time

    I

    used this

    medicine,

    the chill

    and

    fever left

    me,

    and

    I

    continued

    to take

    the

    medicine

    for some

    time

    after,

    regu-

    larly,

    a

    teaspoonful

    at

    a

    dose,

    and now

    I am

    finally and perfectly

    cured.

    I have

    still one-third

    of

    the

    medicine left in

    the

    bottle,

    and

    yet

    I

    am

    free

    from

    all chill

    and

    fever,

    and

    the

    swelling

    has

    entirely left

    me.

    I

    am

    also

    hardy and

    working

    at

    my

    trade,

    as

    a

    Carpenter.

    It

    is

    not necessarv

    to say

    anything

    more

    of this valu-

    able

    medicine. Signed,

    Dear

    Sir,

    I

    have

    analyzed

    the

    medicine which

    you

    term

     

    Bonpland's

    Remedy

    for

    Fever

    and

    Ague,

    and

    find that it

    does

    not

    contain a

    particle

    of

    Arsenic

    in

    any

    form.

    It

    is

    entirely a

    vegetable

    compound.

    ligero,

    algunas

    de

    lo

    cual

    se

    puede

    administrar la

    medicina

    bajo

    el

    metodo

    que

    queda

    prescrito

    mas

    arriba.

    Hay

    varias

    clases de enfermedades

    intermitentes, tales

    como,

    la

    jaqueca

    periodica,

    ataques

    nerviosos,

    &c.

    que

    se

    curan

    muy

    a

    menudo,

    tomando

    una

    cucharada

    de te,

    de

    esta medicina tres

    veces

    al

    dia.

    El

    propietario

    de

    esta apreciable

    medicina pudiera

    producir

    algu-

    nos

    cientos

    de

    certificados

    de

    personas

    que

    con

    su

    uso

    han recobrado

    su

    perfecta

    salud;

    pero

    esta

    persuadido

    que

    la publicacion

    de

    ellos

    no

    seria

    mas

    satisfactoria,

    que el

    que da

    a

    continuacion, siendo producido

    por el

    Doctor

    James

    R.

    Chilton,

    quiraico

    perfectamente bien

    conoci-

    do

    y

    justamente

    apreciado

    en Nueva-York,

    dice asi

    A

    TODOS

    A QUIENES

    CONCIERNA

    Y

    FUEDA

    CONVENIR,

    CERTIFICO

    :

    que

    por

    muchos

    aiios

    en

    mi practica,

    he administrado

    la

    Medicina co-

    Tiocida

    por

     

    Medicina de

    Bonpland

    para las

    Calenturas

    y

    Tercianas,

    y

    despues

    de

    haber

    palpado

    sus buenos

    efectos,

    en

    cientos

    de casos

    y

    haber tambien

    adquirido

    un

    completo

    conocimiento acerca

    de

    su

    com-

    posicion

    ;

    consideraria

    un

    acto

    de

    injusticia

    hacia

    el

    publico,

    s

    :

    me ne-

    gase a

    rnanifestar

    mi opinion

    tocante

    a

    sus

    meritos.

    Es

    uno

    de

    los

    re

    medios

    mas

    populares, que

    jamas

    he

    conocido,

    para

    la

    curacion

    radical

    de

    la

    Calentura

    intermitente

    y

    otras

    Calenturas

    de

    caracter

    semejante.

    Eh

    muchos

    distritos

    del

    Campo,

    no

    se

    puede

    obtener

    prontamente

    el

    ^usilio

    de

    un

    facultativo,

    y

    en esos

    puntos

    se conocera

    una

    doble ventaja

    su
