duced by the use Of that medicine on a member
Of my own family, and under my own observation
and superintendent, after the skill OF the best
physicians had been exhausted and all the usual
remedies had failed, fully justify me in recon-
mending Its Use to all who may be suffering from
that dreadful malady.

constitutions, that II will afford the same relief
In all cases for, Of course, l can know nothing
about that-but Of what have seen Of the effects
