cholera having been as yet present; the weak
ness Of the system from the effect Of the dlar-
rhra, not having vital force in it sufficient to
withstand the further debilitating effect of
the sssleepy drug" In fact il would be only
an exhibition Of common sense If some of the
Medical Faculty would try the average dose on
strong, healthy man. / am Of the opinion
that il would be the last dose he would take
! However, we do know that the general his
tory Of cases Of cholera is this. "He was ef-
ficfed with diarrhea, on Thursday his con-
plaint was supposed to be thoroughly checked; |;
on Friday and Saturday be underwent eonsid-
cradle fatigue; on Saturday night be was at
tackled with cholera or malignant dysentery
and died next morning.o This is the history
with doctors, with div;nes, with civilians, and
with laymen. Diarrh9a checked, cholera or
malignant dysentery sets in, and death closes
the scene. And win nothing warn, win moth
ing induce correct praeticee II all die who
have the diarrh9a checked, will no physician
try the other plan and report the facts? IL

patients with laudanum-the opposing nature,

trieds Surely medical men are not afGaid Of
the patient being too soon cured for their pro-
lht! this will not comport with my idea Of the
general highmindedness Of the profession.--
No. il is from ignorance and education that
they are opposed to purgation with the Bran
dreth Pills For purgation with the ordinary
lpurgatives know viii not cure diarrbPa, but
Brandrethis Pills will, and l am willing TO
submit them to any trial in the public hospi-
tails that may be desired, as | have often pub
liely declared. But physicians at these insti-
tutions say, we will not use them, sir, unless
you tell US Of What they are madee Its for
their valuable effects in curing disease, and
their special value in cholera that | wish them
TO be used, is my reply. And is it Of eonse-
quence that what compose the Brandreth Pills
should be known! II you send a prescription
to the apotheeary, you never have two apothe-
carries who make use of the same quality OF
drugs, and in fact so much DO drugs Of the same
name differ in appearance, that it requires
great experience to tell that they belong to the
same family. Brandreth's Pills are purely
vegetable; they are ten times more powerful,
weight for weight, than ealomel; they are, in
7 fact, the most economical medicine in the
world; for one pill, the cost Of which is one
cent, will purge some constitutions equalto an
ounce Of salts. They are the poor mans medi-
cine. 1t is to him who has small means, and
who has a young family depending upon him
for support that their worth is evident. Those
who can afford to have doctor and be sick a
month. can do so; but all cannot have this
high privilege children would starve Bran
dreth's Pills are the medicine for the poor man,
and for the sensible rich. But the simple, the
ignorant, the learned. prejudiced man, who
shall save him, if be Is really attacked with .
dangerous diseased He will die for the RENE
dies Of physicians are Of no value in cases Of
absolute danger, as all the friends Of those who
are gone know. Let the truth be spoken
sometimes Yet again it is said use no purga-
tives, use no medicine which evacuates the
bowels. And yet Mr.. Il. was purged and
griped; he was almost in Commissions; he took
four Brandreth Pills and drank plentifully Of
barley water, and he recovered next day. Mr..
G.. was sick in the course OF four months seve

but Brandreth Pills and they cured him.

dence Of their great curative qualities; it re-
mains with the public to say what weight it
deserves. But that they remove the impuri-
ties from ihe system by their occasional use,
which greatly lessons the liability to an attack
OF diarrhGa, is beyond doubt.
Costiveness may be considered the first symp-
tom diarrhea with constant flying pains in
the bowels, the next symptom; dysentery with
constant seated pains, the next; and the
malignant form is present when these pains
become cramps. Now, these Brandreth Pills, I
used in view Of prevention, may save nll the
above trouble; they remove the costiveness,
and If pains in the bowels continue, you use
smnllient drinks, as Cruel, barley water, &c
Should diarrhea set in, you still use the pills )

owed If the disease runs into dysentery, either
'efore or after the pills have been taken; for ?
u that can be claimed for the pills is that they
'il cure and generally prevent an attack but n
the poison Of the malignant dysentery has
cen already received into the system. then al
hat we can do is to blunt its powers for evil. !
This we can do; end pledge my word. if the
ills are used with ordinary discretion in any d
these prevailing bowel disorders, the rommu- II
ity will find it to their advantage.
