From Arnold Bunum, the FhIIanIhroPIsT.
DIR. Brandreth, my dear friend, Ifto be good
and to DO good is the highest duty Of man; and
If to do good is the best evidence 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 testimony That this Is not vain latfery,
give the following brief sketch of my own ex-
perienee;
When / was twenty years old, was very
sick for about two months with what my physi-
clan called "Slow Fever 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 had
very severe attack Of Inaammatory Rheu-
matism, during which 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, how ever, | purchased a box Of Bran
dreths pills, and finding them on trial. to be
more efeetual in removing disense, than any
medicine had ever tried before, replenish-
ed my supply from time 10 time, as occasion
required. Since that time have spent three
years in the Western Country, where | was
very much exposed to vicissitudes likely TO
produce disease; twice | have crossed the At
lantic 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 III, the friend at 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 50 reduce my system as TO confne me to
the house for at least six weeks, but ] declined
his prescriptions, took dose Of Braudreth's
Pills. called the next day and paid the physi-
clan for his 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 I2 years ago.
Ny health is now vastly BETTER than it haS
been for "a years telore commenced the use
of these Pills, They have been my constant
companion wherever 1 have been, by land or
by sea, and my only medicine; am now
ten pounds heavier than | was before used
them; when | take 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 ealomsl dos
ing to which Twas before subjected. NY niEe,
too, by the same means enjoys the same unin-
terrupted good health. Our Doctors bin for
both Of Us, have not amounted TO Eve dollars in
twelve years. When we find our health i'm
paired from any cause, we take a 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 the longevity of the eommuui-
ty would be greatly promoted.
Most respectfully thy friend.
ARNOLD BUFFUM.
