two months, during which time | slept IN

miles. But the Mustard Seed are far pre-
ferable.

l know a young lady who has been cur
ed Of the same disease by the same
means.
One of my sisters whose liver was atiec-
ted, took Mustard Seed and is well.
A gentleman formerly a.surgeon in the
/ Navy who was in the same house whilst
/ was under this course Of Mustard Seed,
was, on reading but few pages Of the
treatise, inspired with faith enough to try
the seed for his complaint. lie had suffer
ed for years with a severe disease of the
stomach and yiscara; and having tried
without effect, almost every prescription,
had nearly concluded that his disease was
irremedable. But no had not taken the
Mustard Seed longer than two weeks when
he declared himself cured. He said that
he had not known a we'll day PRIOR thereto,
for SIX years--and added that the Mustard
Seed acted ike magic. He took them in
moderate doses in molasses.
Very few persons find any difficulty in
taking them though they must be swollow-
cd tckols, three times q dag, and usually
from tl0o to four tea spoon tuls ut a dose.
! They should be taken an hour before break
| fast-an hour AFTER dinner, aud the third
dose an hour BEFORE going to bed. Per
sons who dine later than four o'clock,
should take the second dose an hour before
instead of after dinner,
The seed should be well washed be-
fore taken to free them from dust or other
vicious matter which may adhere to them
+ from negligence from the persons who pre-
pare them for market. Those who expert
any difficulty in taking them in cold water
or without any thing, would do we'll to Poul
little hot water on them. This immedj
I produces mucigZage which render them
more easily to be swallowed.-But at al
events they can be taken without difficulty
| in a little jelly, molasses mush, or the like.
Persons much dyspepsia requires n dose
or so of epson salts or seidhtz PO'oders tc
assist the inception operation Of the seed.
An over dose may be known by and i'm
moderate operation on the bowels or by,
unusual restlessness at night, or an erup-
ton about the mouth In either case the
quantity should be reduced. Three tea
spoonful is the cmmon dose; butin one in
stance, only ten seeds wore sufficient.
Regularly is be to observed strictly. Il
is a sine qua non. The patient must expect
to be cured in n day, nor a week, nor two
weeks To stop short Of three weeks al
least, were no wiser than one who nearly
across a stream turns back because it still
runs rapidly. Let no one condemn the
WhHe Mustard Seed, who has not taken
them as above directed, rih PsrJeet regu
laritg three uceks at least.
Whilst taking the Mustard Seed a rig
id abstinence from all kinds OF ardent sPir
rs, sciass, and feymeated liquors MUST be
observed, or the Mustard Seed viii have
very little or no effect. And would advise
those as prefer health to poison, in order to
prereat a recurrence of disease, to cOHtinu<
this rioid abstinence. Il we're well also 10
