THE NEW FRENCH REMEDY.

THERAΡΙΟΝ.

This succesful and highly popular remedy, a played in the Cantinental Hospitals by Ricord, Rostan, Jebert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind, and surpasses everything hitherto employed.

THERAPION No. 1, in a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs effectually superseding injections, the use of which does irreparable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dis- cases. In dysentery, piles, irritation of the lower bowel, cough, bronchitis, asthma, and some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies have heen powerless.

THERAPION No. 2, for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swellings of the joints, secondary symp toms, disease of the bones, sore throat, and all discases for which it has been too much a fashion to employ mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of the sufferer's teeth and ruin of health. This preparation purifies the whole system through the blood, and throughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body,

THERAPION No. 3, for nervous exhaustion, waste of vitality, and all the distressing, con sequences arising from early, error, excess residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. I posseses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.

THERAPION may be procured at 2/9 and 4/0 per package, of the principal Chemists and Merchants throughout the world. In ordering, the purchaser should state which of the three numbers be requires, and observe that the word THERAPION" appears on the Govern- ment, Stamp (in white letters on a red ground) affixed to every genuine package by order of Her Majesty's Hon. Commissioners, and with- out which it is a forgery.

Sold by A. S. WATSON & Co., Limited, Hongkong, China and Manila.
