Tne healthful balm from Natures secret spring,
The bloom Of health, and life, to man will bring;
As from her depths the magic liquid flows,
To calm our suferings, and assuage our woes.
DETROLEUM.-Itisn is necessary, upon the in
l PRODUCTION of a new Medicine, to the notice
of the public, that something should be said in
relation TO its powers, in healing disease, and
the manner in which it acts. Mans organiza-
tion is complicated one; and to understand
the functions OF each organ, requires the study
of years. But to understand that certnin
remedies produce certain Impressions upon
these organs may he learned bv experience in
short tims. 1t is by observation in watching
the effects Of various medicines. that we are
enabled TO increase the number Of curative
agents, and when we have discovered new med
icine and attested its merits, il is our duty to
bring 1T before the public, that the benefits to
be derived from it, may be more generally diff
fused, but have no right TO hold back remedy
whose powers are calculated TO remove pain,
and to alleviate human suffering and disease.
THE PETROLEUM HAS BEEN FULLY
TESTEDi About one year ago it was placed
before the public as A REMEDY OF WON
DERFUL EFFICACY, Every one not ac
quainted with its virtues, doubted its healing
properties. The cry Of humbug was raised
ngainst it. 1t had some friends. Those that
were cured through lis wonderful agency =
These spoke out in its favor. The lame,
through lis instrumentality, were made TO walk
the blind to sec. Those who had suffered for
years under the torturing pains, Of Rheluna-
hsnl, Gold and Neuralgia, were restored to
health and usefulness. Several who were
blind have been made 70 see, the evidence of
which will be placed before you. If you still
have doubts, 90 and ask those who have been
cured . Some of them live in our midst, and
can swear for themselves. In writing about a
medicine we are aware that we should write
TRUTH-that we should make no statements
that cannot be proved. We have the witness.
es-crowds Of them, who will testify in terms
stronger than we can write them, to the eff
caey of this Remedy, who will testify that the
PETROLEUM has done for them what no medi-
cine ever could before-cases that were pro-
nouneed hopeless and beyond the reach Of
remedial means---cases abandoned by Physi-
clans Of unquestioned celebrity, have been
made to exclaim, "This is the most wonder
full remedy ever discovered!n We will lay be-
fore you the certificates of some of the most
remarkable cases; to give them al, would re
quire more space than would be allowed by this
circular. Since the introduction Of the Pc
troleum. about one year ago, many physicians
have been convinced OF its efficacy, and now
recommend it in their practice; and we have
no doubt that in another year it will stand at
the head Of the list Of valuable Remedies. III
the physicians 90 not recommend il, the peo-
pie will have it of themselves for its tran
scendunt power to heal, teiR and must become
known and appfeeiated--when the voices of
the cured speak out; when the cures them
selves, stand out in bold relief, and when he
who for years has suffered with the tortures
and pangs Of an immedicable lesson, that has
been shortening his days and Fastening him |
'to the narrow house appointed for all the liv-
ing" when he speaks out in its praise, who |
viii doubt it? The Petroleum is a natural |
Remedy; it is put up as it flows from the bo-
som OF the earth. without anything being ad
ded TO, or taken from it.
