An attractive apothecary label for GARRIGUES VEGETABLE WORM CONFECTIONS, sold by E. B. Garrigue, Philadelphia. Nicely printed on colorful green stock so typical of the period, this 7 ¾ X 5 3/8 uncut label extols the wondrous virtues of Mr. Garrigues little vegetable pills in ridding one of stomach worms. A common affliction of the Civil War era and an especially frequent malady of the southern camp where warm weather and flies took their toll from Yankee soldiers whos systems or habits were not accustom to sustained heat and close living.
