VAN BuREN, Ark, April Is. 1918.
De-. BRAGG- Dear Sir During the past
summer and fall, the various forms or bill
iouS Fever were very prevalent and often
fatal in this section Of country. Our wor-
thy none-such physicians, puiIed up with
pride and vain conceit, persisted in their
antiquated practice with that universal
panacea, calomei, with such unbounded
success, that one or two, panc-StluclS,
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 the exhibition of
calomel, great prostration. tympanitic con-
dition of the abdomen, and perforation of
the bowels were the result OF this heroic
treatment, and TO pr0veit so TO their weep
ing friends, post mortein 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 fiaxseed tea as drink. and a
poultce of the same applied to the bowels
when this failed, with sage look. and little
faith, 4 hearts fulfof apprehension. they
would confess to their friends their full con
fidence in the application of blistel> from
head TO loot--you may guess the result.

ton, one OF your ira Yelling agents passed
through our neighborhood. and made lib
eral depoSiteS of fyourvegeiahle medicines,
and distributed pamphlets. and the "Sun,"
TO shed genial and benignart light upon
this benighted, and apparently devo-
ted land. The mama sent 10 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 We're prepared to re-
ceive them, or amy 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 few days,
an erciy inStGacc, 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 prejudiceS and prcconceivcd
theories, have cheerfully abandoned their
calomel and lancet, and recommended
your pills in all cases OF bilious. inlermit
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 your a
gents are out Of pills, and the Sickly sea-
son is approaching.
With best wishes for your success,
] am truly yours.
