all impurities thus rendering the stream of lie pure and
healthy. Ii men We're more sincere, there would
be fewer religious creeds; and if they kept closer to
natures lawsin the management of their bodies, they
would require little medicine. As men grow more u-
legent they will become wiser and happer even now,
their isdom is proved by the fact that when sickness
assas them, they use Brandrefs Vegetable Universal
Hills, which soon restores them to health.
They are peculiarly adapted to this climate, and re-
