Dear sir:-Our Mr. Jones has been in
a very low state ofhealth for more than year;
he has had the benefit of the best medical adj
vice our country affods, and also visited your
city during last summer, but found no reilei'
On the 18th of April last we purchased half
dozen bottles ofyour Tonic Vermifuge, and
half dozen boxes of Sanative Pills Through
carelessnesg in packing the articles in dry
goods box one halfthe Vermifpge was broken,
Mr. Jones commenced with the Pills, and after
taking few doses, felt a decided improve
ment. Tie three bottles of hermitage, which
came safe to hand, brought from him, he
thinks, not less than ONE THOUSAND
WORMS, and perhaps many more lie is
now in better health than he has been IN tor
wears and we hope few more bottles of your
Vermifuge and Pills will effect a permanent
cure. All our physicians have entirely mis-
taken his case; Prof Samuel Jackson, OF your
city, at the head. AS to our responsibility we
have 10 refer you to Messrs. lnskip, Mqten d
Woodruff, Silk House, Market street, near

most anxious to get more of your Fills ana
