The discovery of this valuable document was
made by a clergyman who has disposed of the same
with the sole use and right thereto to Messrs T.
Roberts & ca. crane court, Flcet-street London,
and they Ivy the assistance Of venerable chemist u
pby sician have caused the receipt of Old Farrs To
he made Into pills, and although only few years
have elapsed since the trial, on immense number of
cures have been effected more than one half OF which
were considered incurabIe; and what is more remark
able, cases which possess the very opposites
CARDS outward symptoms: the baIsamlc anu invIgor-
a,ing effects on the blood produced by the medi-
cine is almost miraculous; many who have Kept
their beds for years have been rapidly Refrigerated
with an infusion Of new blood, aud consequently of
new life aud strength, that their temperance among
their fellow beings, who had long given them up
ncurabIe, is looked upon the greatest OF the many
great wonders of this wonderful age.

so rapidly obtained such distinguished celebrity; is
questionable il there he any part of The civilized

not been exhibited. This sigma! success is not at
tribuable any system OF advert sing but solely TO
the strong recommendations of parties cured by their
use At this moment the proprieors are IN posses
sion of nearly 500 letters from influential, respeca
bic and intelligent members of society, all bearing
testimony to the great and surprising results from
the use of the medicine This is a mass of evidence

ever discovered.
