I may be useful to some Of my fellow.men, who may

cure, some Of the symptoms OF the disease In sep

with fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon sbated, and apparently. was regaining
my health; when after about three weeks, IN the
course of the night, having returned the evening be.
fore in usual health, found myself bleeding at the

with fever, pain in the breast, very little ap

received the attention Of the most skilfu Physicians
who often seemed to check the progress of the dis

relapse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower

poor pain in the breast directly opposite the heart
attended with some cough, sc. &c. Such was my
condition, when first became acquainted with the
Eygeian Medicines. I commenced taking the med-

days, my appetite became good, and food produced
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 dose; the greatest
Der taken at any one time was fifteen. After this,
took about four doses week, until had taken about
thirteen hundred pills. when found myself restored
to health. After I commenced the Hygeian, took
other medicine. One year from the first attack,
was able to resume my studies in college, where

Dear sr-I wish to state that my sister, after
suffering, and employing medical man three years,
Her complaint was violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
violent burning pain. almost intolerable; see
vere that she could not cit up for upwards Of three
years. 1t was occasioned by over.acng hers IT, and
perhaps, over xertion with it. After using . few,
doses Of No. and alternately, about eight pills for
dose, the pain decreased and. by perseverance in
their use, she is restored to health; and have
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit Of others, and am, dear sir, yours truly.

In justice to Dr. NJ, her medical adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, he recommended
perseverance IN the use of he medicines.
This valuable Medicine. being composed only Of
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs and warranted,
mineral, or chemical substances, (al of which
congenal to the nature of man, and therefore destuc
tive to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly
harmless to the mos. tender age or weakest frame, I'M
der every stage 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 cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing certain number Of small pills, and
being called few extra times to the purposes of
custon, with the least possible sensation of pain,
exhaustion OF bodily strength and without the fear OF
catching cold, attention to dress Diet any way
different from their accustome habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to
excess Experience, which is the tombstone of all
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the
fact, and extensive Of them has already verified
its truth in this country.
These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak,
the feeble, the n6rm, the nervous the delicate are
in few days strengthenedby their operation, because
they clear the body ofits bad humours, and invariably
procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most
ecacious to take to sea, preventing scurvy,
&c,
The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as
sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of
bad humours, they soften, cleanse, and detach the
acrimonious phlegmi cooling, and alsy the thirst.
One two, or three powders may be taken throughout
Inc day, mixed in hafa wine glass of water.
The genuine Medicines can be had of
