has science made in every department of civilized
life particularly in that which relates TO the
knowledge of the human system in health and dis
ease. How valuable and indispensable are the Gu

and our admiration glow at the ingenuity, the near
approach to the standard perfection of the present
time Through the elaborate investigations of
Physiology, the science of LIFE, and the pathol-
ogy of prevalent diseases, much valuable practical
knowledge has been gained. In consequence Of

almost total blindness. For thus was treated and
finally relieved, but the remedies such to

end of my fingers, and for two years N
were beyond deseraidnfate DR.. Bushe who told me

quantity ofmercury taken to cure the Inflammation
of my eyes.
My sufIerings continued, the arm enlarged, tu-
formed in different places, and in few months
discharged, making ten running ulcers at one time,
some above and some below the elbow, and the dis

me truly miserable. Such, gentlemen, had been
my situation for seven years OF my life when |
commenced the use of your Sarsaparllla but as my
case considered hopeless, and the near prospect
of speedy dissolution seemed inevitable, felt but
little encouragement to persevere The persuasion
of friends induced me to try your medicine, which
in few days produced great change in my sys-

pains, and giving me strength; success inspires
confidence, l was encouraged to persevere, my
pains grew easier my strength returned, food rel
