LETTER FROM DIR. CLEVELAND.
WATERviLLE, July 10, 1637.--Sir: Although
Physicians do not often approve OF the practice
of medicine by laynen, in any manner; and
have myself been accustomed to consider all
such as quacks, and therefore not to be patron
Used. Yet have lately seen such beneficial ef-
fects, resulting from the use of your Life Pills,
that | am constrained to discard my prejudices
and to declare, that they are worth more than
all the patent medicines | have ever seen or
heard OF.
The case I alludc to, particularly, was that
of an adult person, laboring under every symp-
tom Of worms. He was much emaciatcd, was
very feeble and suffered at times extreme and
agonising pain. Three successive doses OF your
pills. were administered to him which succeed
ed in expellng a small tenia or tape worm,
about three feet long, and the patient speedily
recovered his health and strength though he
had before tried many prescriptions, without
any relief.
Since that have used them in every variety
of complaint, where cathartic medicines are APP
pilcuble, with general good success: their ope-
Iation is1very mild, producing less irritation
than any other cathartic remedy have any
knowledge of | have also furnished other
physicians with them, and persuaded them to
use them, in their practice. And can assure
they are gaining rapidly in public estimation.
have not written this for the purpose Of
certificate, but if you think proper you are at
liberty topublsh it, and may add also the tes
timony of my brother, who is also physician
and who has used them i'll his own family and
has very high opinion of them. Yours, &c

In both cases violent nervous prostration was
the consequence. The latter case was exceed
