away from the hundreds that are daily launched
upon 0the tide of experiment" and now stand
before the public higher IN reputation and
more extensively employed in all parts OF the
United States, the Canadas, Texas, Mexico
and the West Indies. than any medicine that
has ever been prepared for the reefoi suffer-
inc man. They have been introduced wher-
ever it was found possible to carry them and
there are but feg towns that do net contain
some remarkable evidences of their good eff
fects. The certificates that have been pre-
sented to the proprietor exceed twenty thou
sand upwards of five hundred of which are
from regular practising physlcians-who are the
most competent judges of merits.
Often have the cures performed by this me-
dicine been the subject OF editorial comment in
various newspapers and journals and it may
with truth be asserted, that no medicine OF the
kind has ever received testimonials OF greater
value than are attached TO this.
They are in general use as family medicines
and there are thousands of families who declare
they are never satisfied unless they have q
supply always onhand.
