DR.. Brandreth, my dear mend, If to be good
and to DO good is the highest duty Of man and
If TO DO good is the best evidence a man can
give that he Is good, then feel bound to ad-
dress thee as one who has come up to the mark
Of mans destiny.
As a testimony that this Is not vain hattery,
| give the following brief sketch ofmy own ex-
Perienee:
When / was twenty years old, was very
sick for about two months with what my physi-
clan called "Slow Fever,S during which time !
took much medicine; from that time for 81
years, was very often sick and under the care
Of physician. About twelve years ago l bad
a very severe attack Of Infammatory Rheu-
matism, during which / was attended by DR..
Moore, Of Philadelphia. then regarded my
self as an old man with broken constitution,
swiftly descending to the grave. Soon after
[, wards, however, l purchased a box Of Bran
dreths pills, and finding them on trial, to be
more eifeetual in removing disease, than any
medicine had ever tried before, | replenish-
ed my supply from time to time, as occasion
required. Since that time have spent three
years in the Western Country, where l was
very much exposed to vieissitudes likely to
produce disease; twice have crossed the At
lantic Ocean, and have now spent the last four
years in an Office in this siekly city. Once
while travelling in the West. was taken sud-
dedly very in, the friend al whose house / stop
ped called in a physician, who made very
careful examination Of my case. and then pro-
posed TO commence a process which he stated
would so reduce my system as to confne me to
the house for at least six weeks, but declined
his prescriptions, took a dose Of Brandreth's
pf1f. 1laI ha - 10 he nh
clan for bis visit, and pursued my travel, and
this is the only instance Of my being visited
by physician since purchased the first box Of
Brandreth's Pills u years ago.
My health is now vastly Better than il had
been for "a years before | commenced the use
of these Pills. They have been my constant
companion wherever l have been, by land OF
BY sea, and my only medicine; am now
ten pounds heavier than l was before | used
/ them; when | take cold now, l have no
cough, and attribute all this change, under
God, to the substitution Of Brandreth's Pills,
for the frequent bleeding and the calomel dos
ing 10 which was before subjected. My wife
too, by the same means enjoys the same unin-
| terrupted good health. Our Doctors bill foI
both Of US, have not amounted to five dollars in
twelve years. When We find our health i'm.
paired from any cause, we take dose Of Bran
dreth's Pills, and the difficulty is removed
and judging from my own experience, | believe
If every family should adopt the same practice
the health and fine longevity of the communi.
| tY would be greatly promoted.
Most respectfully thy friend,
ARNOLD BUFFUM.
