aided 'them upon, Pharaoh, lie would have found
them worse than all the Plagues of Egypt cote_

Benefit: of Mankind, a modern Scientific in the
Art of -Healing, has invented, and happily act_
ministered, a _most succ.-essfUl' Antidote against
those- deleterious. Diseases,- Which, like a Poison, 7
rush through the Human System, and have so
often baffled the utmost, skill of. dre.Faculty at large 't
to cure. We mean Dr. Brodum's trot der,working
Nervous Cordial, a few Doses of which ,have so
often relieyed the Patient from the most ekeruciating
pain, and restored that health •and vigour, which
from the power of Medicine, scarce a dawn -of hope -
was to be entertained.

their assistance "arliirded only temporary' relief ; I went
through various CoursespfSalivatien, and from being rather
of a corpulent habit, was reduced to a mere skeleton. The
Ulcers, that spread all
,over my Limbs rendered mesa corn-.

try'a BOX of them, rather relieveil me, and
