L of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
our diseases, speak in a language which must carry

BRowN UNIVERSITY, Dec. 25, 1888.
To Mr.. Samuel Young. Agent for the Hygeian Vege-
table Universal Medicines, for the State of Rhode
Island.
SIR-Grattude to the Great Preserver of Men com.
pels me. in compliance with your request, to give a
briet statement of Il cure, which, l think, | received
from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the
same the more cheerfully; because thereby, perhaps,
may be useful to some of my fellow.men. who may
De afflicted with a similar disease.
BY complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and that my real condition may be explicitly under,
stood, | state. in conneXion with the relation of the
cure, some Of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep
TENDER, 1882, | caught a severe cold, which settled on
my lungs; | was confined to my room about one week,
with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon abated, and apparently. / was regsining
my health; when, after about three weeks, in the
course of the night, having returned the evening be.
fore in usual health. I found myself bleeding at the
lungs. had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt
or strain, TO which the cause of this might be attribut'
ed. | spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left
me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap.
petite, and withal, very weak.
A few weeks determined that l was i'll a decline. I
received the attention of the most skilful Physicians,
who often seemed to check the progress Of the dis.
ease, and inspire the hope ofa speedy recovery. But
rel pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower
than the preceding, seemed 20 battle all human skill,
and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus,
months after the first attack, a =" tubercle" small ul-
cer] broke in the lnngs, after which spst blood, one
day. ] continued to decline twomonths longer, when
! obtained the Hygeian Medicines. | had now been
unable to sit up a whole day, for four months and a
half. My feet were cold and Iifeless, sleep unsound,
cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the
afternoon from seventy-fve to one hundred per mi.
mute, food produced great distress, appetite very
poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart,
attended with some cough, &c. sc. Such was my
condition., when | first became acquainted with the
Hygeian Medicines. | commenced taking the medi.
cines, four pills st a dose, and increased the dose dai-
iy, one up to the number of twelve. In about ten
days, my appetite became good, and food produced
no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing,
and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease
had nearly all disappeared.
took the medicine sixty days regularly every night,
averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num-
Der taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, |
took about four doses a week, until | had taken about
thirteen hundred pills, when ] found myself restored
to health. After | commenced the tIygsian, | took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, |
YVES able to resume my studies in college, where |
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease. Hitherto l have been convalescent; and if
my strength is not yet fully returned, | am certain |
have less pains, and am more free from temporary
sickness, than at any time since my earliest recollec.
ton. Yours, with respect,
HORACE L. LOVE.

Dear Sif-I wish to state that my sister, after severe
suffering, and employing a medical man three years,
was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
Tier complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her IS on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see
we're, that she could not sit up for upwards Of three
years. 1t was occasioned by over.!acing hers G If, and
perhaps, over exertion With it. After using 8 few,
doses Of No. l and ?, alternately, about eight pills for
a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is now restored to health; and have
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit of Others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
H. DYER.

In justice to DIR, NJ, her medical! adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, lie ecommende
perseverance in the use of medicines.
This valuable Medicine, being composed only OF
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted,
on oath, as containing not one particle of mercurial,
mineral, or chemical substances, Gall Of which are un.
consenial to the nature of man, and therefore destruc
tive TO the human frane,) is found to be perfectly
har nless to the mos. tender age or weakest frame, un.
der every stage OF human suffering; the most pleasant
and benign in it operation, and at the same time the
most searching out the root Of every complaint, how
ever deep, and of performing a cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the least tfOuoie 10 the patents, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation. with the least possible sensation of pain, or
exhaustion OF bodily strength, and without the fear of
catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way
different from their accustomed habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to
excess. Experience, which is the touchstone of all
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the
fact; and extensive use of them has already verified
It's truth in this country.
These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak,
the feeble, the infrm, the nervous, the delicate, are
in a few days strengthened by their operation, because
they clear the body of tits bad humours, and invariably
procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most
eftcacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy,
co5tiYeness, &c,
The Vegetable Cleansing Powders arc of great as
slstance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of
bad lumours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the
acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst.
One, two. or three powders may be taken throughout
the day, mixed in halfa wine glass of water.
