ENDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS IN THE
IL CITY OF FMEXICO.-GREAT SUCCESS
AMONG THE voLUNTEERS!---LETTER
FROM A HIGH SHERIFF OF SOUTH CAR.
OLINA.
Extract of letter from the editor Of the Green.
vile Mountaineer, s. C.
DR.. w. WRIGHT-Dear SIR A
week or two ago l sent you MoUNTAINEET,
containing letter from one of our Volunteers in
the City of Mexico, in which he pays WRIGHT'S
INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS, under the cir.
cumstances, the highest need of praise have ever
known a medicine to receive. The Volunteer,
William w. Goodett, Esq, is a gentleman of fine
s,anding-an accomplished and well educated man.
| and was recently
HIGH SHERIFF
of this District. BY one of your advertisements
in Charleston paper. happened to notice the
location Of your office, and thought you might ex-
tract an article of some value in regard 10 your
medicine, therefore sent the paper r-
Tide following is an extract from the letter re-
ferred to above:
"My health is very fast improving. Iprocured
few days ago, some of DR.. Wrights Indian Veg
etabe Pills, and they have acted ON my system
LIKE MAGICw
Thus it appears that the brave and patriotic
Volunteers who have gone to Mexico, 10 defend
the rights and honor Of their country, already be-
gin to realize the extraordinary value of this in
comparable medicine. Long life to them!
HORRIBLE MISTAKES!!
Are sometimes made by confounding one medi-
cine with another, and administering the wrong
article. Equally horribeare those mistakes which
are made in suppDsng that all Pills are alike, and
that therefore it is Indifferent which are taken,
and If one kind is bad all are bad together. This
is very great mistake. There is as much differ
ence between Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills and
Mi nd ayt
We do not wish any one to take our word merely
for this statement. Let any one, having taken
other medicine, try this. Nothing more will be
necessary. .......
Many persons have been lead away by COAT
ING OF SUGAR, as if they anticipated that it
would remove the nausea of the medicine. But
they are generally mistaken. Without the SUGAR
those articles have nothing to recommend them,
and would not be sold single day. But with the
sugar, and by giving the article name SIMILAR
to Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills, they gain
temporary notoriety Wolves they are, in
Sleeps clothing of whom the public should steer
sufficiently clear.
Let t.be remembered that WRIGHT'S INDI-
AN VEGETABLE PILLS are prepared with |
special reference to the laws governing the human
body. Consequently. they are always good, al
ways useful, always effective in roofing out diseas
es. Every family should keep them on hand
