To calm our suderingi. and sssuage our woes.
DETROLEUM.-Iti Unnecessary, upon the in
l PRODUCTION Of 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 orEaniza-
tion is a complicated one; and to understand
the functions Of eaeh organ. requires the study
Of years! But to understand that certain
remedies produce certain impressions upon
these organs may be learned by experiences in
short time. 1t is by observation in Matching
the effects Of various medicines. that we are
enabled to increase the number Of curative
agents, and when we have discovered new med
ieine and attested its merits, it is our duty to
bring it before the public, that the benefits to
be derived from il, may be more generally diff
fused, but have no right to hold back remedy
whose powers are calculated to remove pain,
aud to alleviate human suffering and disease

| DERFUL EFFICACY, Every one not ac-
quainted with its virtues, doubted its healing
properties. The cry OF humbug vas raised
against it 1t had some friends. Those that
were cured through its wonderful agency -
These spoke out in its favor. The lame,
through its instrumentality, were made TO walk
the blind to see. Those who had suffered for
years under the torturing pains, of Rhelna-
4 hsnl, Gobd and Neuralgia, were restored to
health and usefulness. Several who were
blind have been made TO see, the evidence of
which win be placed before you. If you still
have doubts, go and ask those who have been
cured Some Of them live in our midst, and
can swear for themselves. In writing about
medicine we are aware that we should write
TRUTH-that we should maxi no statements
that cannot be proved. We have the witness
es-erowds Of them, who will testify in terms
stronger than we can write them, TO the eff
caey Of this Remedy, who win testify that the
PETRoLEuN has done for them what no medi-
cine ever could before--cases that were pro-
nounced hopeless and beyond the reach
remedial means---cases abandoned by Physi-
clans Of unquestioned celebrity, have been
made to exclaim, This is the most wonder
sul remedy ever discovered :" 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 win stand at
the head Of the list of valuable Remedies. I'll

Remedy; it is put up as it flows from the bo-
