These Cakes are principally prepared from Herbs, and do not contain any dan gerously active ingredients. They have a wonderful effect in curing children, as well as grown persons, by removing the worms. They have been with grea suc cess introduey into the principal families in Europe, Australia, and Hew Zealand. They are guaranteed to do away, in a very short time, with many serious complaints like Bronchitis, Piles, Ulcers, Ulcerated Throats, etc., if taken in time, as these sicknesses are often caused by worms of all kinds, especiolly by the Tape Worm, and by the most dangerous Thread Worm, which, if not destroyed in time, will soon create the hardly-curable Worm Fever. The smallest, the Thread Worm, will more than any other worm penetrate through all the crevices of the body up to the brain. An example was recently wit nessed, where a child falling continually into fits (the parents not knowing the cause) at last died with the brain affected by the too fatal Thread Worm. Still more recently there was a case, a grown man whose seat was affected by the Thread Worm, and who, after trying many sorts of remedies, without effect was directly relieved by a dose of UR HEILBRON’S Worm Cakes. There are cases where the worms come away that they almost can be counted ; then often they come away in whole clots, and sometimes in a thick and slimy stuff, and although not so perceptible, still they are caused to leave by Dr Heilbron’s Worm Cakes. And there have been other cases where children affected with Worms, when coughing or sneezing, do discharge them through the mouth and nose. The symptoms of Worms are generally as follows . Lassitude, Giddiness, De pression of Spirits, Impaired Appetite (which if not acted against, will engender diseases of the bile), Disorder of the Stomach and Digestive Organs, Sick Headaches, Vomiting, Disturbed Sleep, and many more serious complaints, in cluding Fits, of which last many persons have been cured by these Worm Cakes. No time should be lost in removing these Worms, else the consequence will be seri ous, as they will increase in size and quantity, and ultimately spread through out the intestines. If Worms are ne glected for a time they will do so much damage as to make it beyond human skill to restore and reorganise the system of digestive organs. DIRECTIONS FOI? USB. The quantity of these Worm Cakes to be taken at a dose depends mostly on the age and constitution of the patient. In most cases a couple of doses will drive the worms away for many years, if not en tirely. As a standard : A dose for a child up to 2 years will be half a Cake ; from 2 to 4 years old, one whole Cake ; from 4 to 8 years, one Cake and a half ; from 81 o 14, two Cakes ; and so to increase with the age, but never m6re than four Cakes at one dose. Grown females may gene rally take three Cakes at a dose, and grown men four Cakes, according to con stitution. The most effective way of using these Worm Cakes is by taking the dose before going to bed, and on the following morning to take a cup of hot tea before breakfast. As I am not certain how long 1 may stay in this town, and as these Worm Cakes can be obtained at a very small ex pense families will do well to have always a small supply of them at their houses.
