TRUTH AKIN TO NATURE.-Have you
pain! Be thankful 1t is vigorous effort Of Nature
to throw off morbhc matter From what may the
morbitc matter arise? From bruise or unwholesome
air which has become mixed with the blood, not ncor
porated in it, but which liable faint the whole mass,
if not speedily removed. Or the pain may arise from
bile which has become bad, rancid putrid, in conse-
quence of the want of power in the proper organs
discharge it. This pain, which so irlshens people, is
only the symptoms of the efforts of Nature dor the
vital principle of the blood; to expe the pecant i'm
pure matter which would otherwise destroy the human
fabric All diseases of the solids fluids. BOTH
When we have pain in our head, or in our foot, in
throat, in our back bowels, let but be satisfied
that it produced by the efforts OF blood to throw
off morblfc NATTER and if this be So if we can but
believe and understand this, will be easy and
generally sure For our course will then be to help Ma
ure to throw off the morbid NATTER not to take away
the blood. For the blood, every drop we have is re-
qured to insure ultimate health to the body. We must
not lose drop-neher must we use any medicines in-
ernaly which are not perfectly harmless, if applied
externally to the body. So we must not any of the
preparations OF mercury, neither must any
getable medicine of corrosive power.
In order to discriminate between truth, which is eter
nal, and conjecture which is like transient vision we
must be guided by the light of experience. To what
doesiexperence direct! To the free of DR.. BRAN
DRETHS PILLS in all cases of bodily suf-
fering. As this advice is followed, will the health
of the body be. The writer has long used them and
has never found them fail omparting relief In all acute
Diseases let Brandreh Pills and mild diet be used, and
the patient will be restored to good health. In
l6l Ue USED dS Olten DIS COLI
venient, by which means the vitality OF the blood will
be generally brought about the disease being changed
to acute, few large doses Of Pills and few days
confinement to the house will change the chron-
icaly diseased individual to sound man. This
is figure Of the imagination it be proved by
thousand matter of fact who have experienced it:
Remember in all cases of disease, no matter whether
it be cold or a cough whether it be rheumatism or
peurisy; whether it be typus fever and ague, bill
lious fever, cramp whoopng cough measles; wett
er it be scarlet fever small pox: that the Pills
the medicines of the Drug stores for your restoration
to health, and what is more, will surely do you no
harm.
