LIVER COMPLAINT.

LIVER COmPLAlNT.
The following is an extract from letter received
from Rev. William Galusha:
BERKsHRE, W., Oct. %, ls4s.
Messrs. SANDS have been afflicted with a severe
pain in my side occasioned by diseased liver, for
the last twenty years. suffering at times what Ian
guage cannot convey; but since taking your Sarsa-
Parilla have been greatly relieved, 50 much so
that have been able TO attend to my business, and
preach occasionally for the last eighteen months.
i wholly discarded all other medicine, and thor
oughly tried the Sarsaparilla, which I can recon-
mend in truth and sincerity 10 all those who in
any way afflicted with any species Of scrofulous
complaints. There have been some remarkable
cures effected by its in this vicinity Mrs. !.
Shaw by the use of six bottles, restored 20 bet
ter health than she had before enjoyed for years;
and MIR. w. Stevens, who had been severely afflicted
with crysipelas, was entirely cured by the use of
few bottles. Yours truly, VIM. GALUSHA.
sCRoFULoUs AFFECTION OF THE EYES
SoUTH KINGSTON, r.. l., Oct. IL, lsf7.
Mcssrs. SANDS; Gentlemen-My little daughter,
when one year old, was attacked with a scrofulous
humor on her face, which soon after extended into
her eyes. causing almost total blindness in one Of
them and dishguring her whole face. IempJoyed
two physicians to attend her, who exhausted their
utmost skill TO give her relief but IL all proved
less, and finally one Of them remarked 10 me that
he had known OF some striking cures effected by
Sands Sarsaparilla, and advised me 10 tryit OBJ
tanned one bottle, which she commenced using, and
before IL was all used up il had effected entire
cure. IL s now ovcrfour years since she was cured,
and there has been reappearsnce Of the disease,
and satisfied that Il is perfect cure. IL
gives me great pleasure TO add that can recon-
mend IL 70 every sufferer from any similar COM
plant. Respectfully yours,

practice, and would therefore recommend to all
who are unfamiliar with the use of tar for this
purpose. to use hot water in its stead. A simple
immersion is sufficient, and from this no injury
whatever can result to the corn, even should 1t
be productive of no advantage in forwarding
the crop. There are some seasons SO favorable
that no preparatory measures Or applications are
required, and when this is the case none should
be used. When corn is planted late however,
there is demand for extra stimuli in order that
the loss Of time may be made up, and the crop
pushed vigorously forward that it may escape

A day or two after this, npon, going into my

off they went again. Icond kill thecut worms,
but that did not replacemy plants. A new idea
then struck me. Ipuleda few handfuls of clio
YER and laying small quantity at the base Of
each plant, put thereon chip. By this simple
continuance, trapped the whole brood of rascals
and saved my plants.
The philosophy Of the thing is this The cut
worm prefers the green clover, which will KEEP

day or two you can hand the worms which col
,ect there, over to the tender merces Of the ole
hen aud chickens The trouble OF doing this il

BEWARE Or COUNTERFEITs,

A LMOST every system of medicines that the
n world has ever produced-and there have
been many Of them-has proved less beneficial
than the practice which leaves to nature the per
Torrance of cure. The true philosophy of dis
ease, and its treatment, seem never 10 have been
discovered by the legalizee profession, or egalized
empircism. But, they have allowed the most
beautiful aid important science which the human
mind am cultivate 10 lie buried under acrude and
undigested mass of materials, collected Though
many centuries by superficial observers and WIS.,
onaIy theologsts. The language of medicine
has been vague and inaccurate, often used to OBJ
scure the most simple truths, and 10 give to mere
fiction Of the Imagination the appearance OF reality
So mysterious has been 'ile practice OF Physc in
all ages that philosophers Of reputation have
regarded medicine as deceitul art, the empire Of
which was founded, and its existence continued
| solely on the credulity and weakness of man. They
ell us that nature has placed in all her works the
means of restoring order, and when these means
men are wholly useless. The secret springs ofthe
human frame ere, say fhese philosophers, entirely
too much yelled from view 10 ascertain the tue
causes OF their arrangement Opinions like these
have been spread abroad among intelligent men,
They were the natural result Of the system Of EN-
pircism that existed in the profession. Some en-
lightened physicians were induced to regard medi-
cine in much the same light
THE BRANDRETH PILLS are the longest
known, have been most considered and are the
DeSt understood OF all the IneUiclneS OF The day
Their action harmonizes with the condition of the
/ body. Ifthe bowels are merely cosve-if il is
ny some irregularity of diet that requires correc-
ton, two, three or four pills, taken at night, or any
time during the day, will seldom be felt after they
are swallowed, until they produce their own effect
But should there be crude matters in the circu-
lation, or any nndigested food in the bowels, OF
putrid, acrd bile in the region of the heart OF
liver, or in any part Of the viscera, then the pills
of Dr.. Brandreth may occasion some slight ncon-
venience but nothing in comparison to the great
good they do in removing the Death principle OUT
of the system. For when we are born. we bring
into the world our Life-prineiple, and also that
which must terminate our being.
