SYNOPSIS OF THE
EBrandretlaiasa Method


From whatever cause arising, (dlI ending
IN the same effect. e., producing
impure Blood and Fluids),
aoith one, and
ONLY ONE MEDICINE;
The capabilty of which has been fully prov
ed, beyond the power of mallgnIty,
envy, or malice to gainsay.
ENIRSTLY.-P.4LNc cannot exist but from COR
- RUPT HU.MORS being seated in the ldentl-
cal part where the pain is experienced. These
corrupt humors, when In sufficient quantity To
overpower the principle Of life, are the posture
cause of DEATH
1t is a solemn truth that corruption terminates
the existence OF all created beings; the Importance
OF its speedy removal from the body, when by any
cause il has accumulated, is therefore self evident; !;
rs not only health, but EXISTENCE being abso-
iutely endangered by its presence.
Let us then acknowledge that the only sure
means of preventing and curing disease, is The
speedy removal of corrupt humors from the body
Disease being only another name for c0rrnPt.on
and corruption, or corrupt humors being identified
in all cases as impurity Of blood.
Sccondly-PURGATIV MEDICINE, when
resorted to in season, that is, while there IS suit-
cient vitality remaining in the system, will remove
corruption; thus the blood is purified; thus chronic
infrmities and premature death are prevented
thus, those whose lives of the utmost lnPor-
tance to their country and families, often saved
The importance Of this discovery of curing dis
rare, after ages will do justice to; Dr. benjamin
Brandreih will not then be styled an "ignorant
protender." Bet that will neither please nor offend
him; in the rectitude Of his acts, in the quiet
Of his own conscience, is his reward.
The great the immortal Bacon says, at IS I'M
possible to calculate how many days might be ad-
ded to the life of man by the occasional use OF
pureing medicines that hcir effect upon the human
frame is the same that pruning trees has upon them
The excresences are removed, and new stimulus
is created. That when constant exercise cannot
be used from any cause, the occasional use of open
ing medicine is absolutely required. Thus, the
conduits of the blood, the fountain Of life are kept
free from impurities which would prevent its steady
current ministering health. Thus. morbid humors
are prevented from becoming mixed with it. II is
nature W hch is thus assisted through the means and
outlets which she has provided for herself''
With such authority as this before US, we may
indeed use the expression,
sPCleanse and purify The Body.e6s
The application of the principle of purgation
being allowed to be one of the greatest utility, in
the cure and prevention of disease, it is Of the
greatest consequence to ascerten what medicine is
capable of producing the desired effect in the easi.
est, and at the same time in the most effectual
manner; and
