DR.. BRAGe- Dear Sir: During the past
summer and fall, the various forms Of bill
iouS Fever were very prevalent and often
fatal In this section Of country. Our wor-
thy hone-slch physicians, pulled up with
pride and vain c~onceit, persisted in their
%antiquated practice with that universal
panacea, calomel, with such unbounded
success, hat one or two, panic struck,
scampered Off and left their patients with
nature and her Intellectual efforts to repair
the mischief they had done. In one fam
lily, four cases resulted in death, in the
short space Of four days :, in some cases,
three or four days after tie exhibition Of
calomel, great proStratiop, tympanitic con-
dition of the abdomen, aud perforation oC
the bowels were the result of this heroic
treatment, and 10 proveit so to their weep
ing friends, a post mortem examination
would reveal the fact. After finding their
practice altogether Intellectual, they came
to the wise conclusion to give no medicine
at all, but continue to visit their patients,
and order haXSeed tea as q drink, II a
poultice of the same applied to the bowels;
when this failed, with sage look, and little
faith, & hearts full of apprehension, they
would confess to their friends their full con-
fdence in the application of blisters from
head to foot--you nay guess the result.
lnthiS dilemma and universal conSternaa
ton, one of your travelling agents passed
through our neighborhood, and made lib
eraldeposites of your vegetable medicines,
and distributed pamphlets, and the "Sun,'
to shed a genial and benignart light upon
this benighted, and apparently devo-
led land. The mama sent TO the Chill
dren Of Israel, in the wilderness, was not
hailed with more hearty thanks than were
your health-restoring Pills in this awful
crisis. The people were prepared to re-:
ceive them, or any thing that promised
them relief from their apparently impend.
ing fate. | have watched their progress,
and the effects they produced in hundreds
of cases and am happy to give my, feeble
testimony TO their entire and triumphant
efficacy, in restoring health in q Il w days,
in erery instance, when they have been
taken in time, and in strict accordance to
directions. Some of our physicians,
whose love of truth and philanthropy tri-,
umphed over preiudices and preconceived.
theories, have cheerfully abandoned their,
calomel and lancet, and recommended
your pills in all cases of bilious. intermit
tent, remittent, congestive and typhus fe-.
vers; and they freely acknowledge that
they are almost a specific in all these dis
eases. Your travelling agent is anxious
ly looked for again, as many of tour a.
gents are out of pills, ard tie sickly sea-
son is approaching.
With best wishes for your success,
am truly yoNrs.
