COIIetOn Bitters.

YNHESE Bitters are purely vegetable com
= pound, and are offered to the public from
principle Of benevolence, under the fullest convic.
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
emedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium.
ohanty tested, not only by some of the most re-
pectabe families and physicians in the State Of
| South Carolina, who have furnished ample testi-
nony to their decided excellence hut also by the
ropretor, who, for ten years. suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by con-
| tinued use. They contain not single delelerious
Ingredient and, as from the directions which
accompany each bottle, may be given with entire
safety to an infant in the month";
In accordance with your request that would
give my opinion concerning the "Colletin Btters,"
which have both taken myself and used in my
practice, it affords pleasure in being able to as
sert that entertain for it mo high and exalted
opinion, being medicine we'll calculated to give
relief, and even the disease for which it is is
sued, and has become notorious, namely, Dyspepsia.
know of no other compound Of medicine which is,
as a dyspephc remedy, more often attended with
such gratifying and pleasing result, substituting
for disease good health, for melancholy and op-
pressed heart and mind cheerfulness and sprighti-
ness of intellect. ss l6sE Ega.
Iknow of one case in particular in which Cole-
ton Bltters were peculiarly applicable After the
unavailing attendance Of the most respectable and
scientific physicians, and having postponed travelling
as dernier resort, when the patient was too deb-
tated to undertake the task, these biters (by the
consent of the attending physican) were resorted
to- and by perseyering continuance, attended with
the most unlocked for and happy efects-changing
a family of distress and affiiction to one of happi
ness, preserving for the infants the guardian eye of
mother, and for husband the only comfort and
happiness Of his life. Colleton Bitters believe to
be an invaluable medicine in family practice, being
highly useful in the cholic complaints during denti
ton. Although preiudiced against patent medicines,
in this instance cannot but have favorable opin.
ion, Judging Of its virtues only by the good see re.
sulting from lite use. With respect,
