DR.. Brandreth, my dear friend, ifto be good
and to DO good Is the highest duty ofman and
II 20 do good Is the best evidence a man can
give that he is good. then feel bound Ia ad-
dress thee as one who has come tlp to the mari
Of mans destiny.
As a testimony that this Is not vain iattsrv.
give the following brief sketch fmy own ex-
perienee;
When l was twenty years old, i was very
sick for about two months with what my physi-
clan called "Slow Fever,s during which time I
took much medicine; from that time for "a
years, vas very often sick and under the care
Of physician. About twelve years ago had
a very severe attack Of Inhammatory Rheu-
matism, during which l was attended by DR..
Moore, Of Philadelphia. then regardad my
self as an old man with broken constitution,
swiftly descending to the grave. Soon after
wards, however, i 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 I was
very much exposed to vieissitudes likely to
produce disease; twice ! have crossed the At
iantic Ocean, and have now spent the last four
years in an Office in this sickly city. Once
while travelling in the West, was taken sud-
dedly very i'll, the friend al whose house stop
ped called in physician, who made a very
careful examination Of my case. and then pro-
posed to commence process which he stated
would so reduce my system as to conhne me to
the house for at least six weeks, but declined
his prescriptions, took dose of Brandreth's
Pills, called the next day and paid the physi-
~vx1
this is the only instance Of my being visited
by physician since purchased the first box Of
Brandreth's Pills IL years ago.
My health is now vastly better than it had
been for "a years before | commenced the use
Of these Pills. They have been my constant
companion wh srever ] have been, by land or
by sea, and my only medicine; | am now
ten pounds heavier than l was before | used
them; when / take a cold now, | have no
cough, and attribute all this change, under
God, to the substitution Of Brandreth's Pills,
for the frequent bleeding and the ealomel dos
ing TO which / was before subjected. My wife,
too, by the same means enjoys the same unin-
terrupted good health. Our Doctors bill fof
both Of US, have not amounted TO five dollars in
twelve years. When 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
il every family should adopt the same practice,
the health and the longevity Of the eommuni-
ty would be greatly promoted.
Most respectfully thv friend,
