| From Arnold BaHum, the Phila nthroplst
DR.. Brandreth. my dear frie nd, ifto be good
and to do good is the highest duty ofman and
! IL to do good is the best evidence a man can
give that he is good, then l feel bound to ad-
dress thee as one who has come up to the mark
Of mans destiny. ..-..ar, f.-.
As a testimony that this Is not vain fattery,
give the following brief sketch off own ex-
perienee:
When wss twenty years old, was very
sick for about two months with what my physi-
cian called "Slnw Fever" during which time
took much medicine; from that time fer 81
years, was very often sick and under the eare
Of physician. About twelve years ago had
a very severe attack Of Infammatory Rheu-
matism, during which 1 was attended by DR..
Moore, Of Philadelphia. | then regarded nay
self as an old man with broken constitution,
swi fly descending to the grave Soon after
wards, however, ] purchased q boz Of Bran
dreths pills, and finding them on trial, to be
more efeetuaI in removing disease, than any
medicine had ever tried before, | repfenish-
ed my supply from time to time, ss occasion
required. Since that time have spent three
years in the Western Country, where was
very much exposed 10 yicissiiudes likely to
produce disease; twice l have erossed the At
lantic Ocean, and have now spent the last four
years in an once In this sickly city. Once
while travelling in the West. l was taken sud-
dedly very III, the friend at whose house stop
ped called in a physician, who made very
careful examination Of my case. and then pro-
posed TO commence process which be stated
would 81 reduce my system as to conhne me 20
The house for at least six weeks, but declined
his prescriptions. took a dose of Brandreth's !
Pills rallied the next day and paid the physi- !
elan for bis visit, and pursued my travel, and |
this is the only instance OF my being visited |
by physician since purchased the frst box Of
Brandreth's Pills IL years ago. Drir
My health Is now vastly Setter than il hae
been for 81 years belore commenced the use
Of these Pills. They have been my constant
companion wherever have been, by land or
by sea, and my only medicine; am now
ten pounds heavier than l was before 1 used /
them; when take cold now, have no
cough, and I attribute al this change, under 4
God, to the substitution Of Brandreth's Pills, |
for the frequent bleeding and the ealomel dos
ing TO which was before subjected. Ny wife, !
too, hy the same means enjoys the same unin- /
terrupted good health. Our Doctors bill for |
both Of us. have not amounted to Eve dollars in |
twelve years. When ve f1d our health i'm. /
paired from any cause, we take q dose Of Bran |
dreth's Pills.. and the difficulty is removed, |
and judging IRON nv own experience, believe |
If every family should adopt the same practice, /
the health and the longevity Of the eommuni- |
tY would be greatly promoted.
Most respectfully thy friend. -.. |
