~ MEDICINES In presenting these prepa-
raeons TO Che public, the proprietOTs are aware
of the preiudices which they must expect to en-
counter. The country is delnged with quack

THAT has been said and the essays written against
their use by the profession, and out of the pro-
fession, Indeed so. prevalent has become the
mania for quackery, that recent writer, man
of eminence in the medical profession strongly
advises that the subject be let alone exists
says he, " in every walk and occupation of life,
/ by the exercise of which men procure bread, y
and thinks it time wasted to endeavor to stem
/ the tide.
We have long since thought that the only ef-
tectual method of counteracting this strong cur
rent of quackery was to place in the hands of the
people, regular medicines, prepared in accordance
with the rules of pharmacy.
w hon our prOirieS and mountains catch fire,
and tho inhabitants behold the devouring ele-
ment sweeping towards their devoted homes,
what do they do? Do they vainly endeavor to

preaching torrent of fame, and by exhaustino
it's food, put stop to its ravages, or turn it out
of its course. Now this is precisely what we arr
| trying to do. The counter-fre which we are
kindling, consists in presenting to the public me-
dicines which are prepared according to the
laws of Science, from the best of drugs, and nm
der the superintednence of regular physician.
For testimonials of their efficacy in the treat
mcnt of the various diseases for which they arc
recommended, we would rofer to all TINT have
! ever used of them. We bring forward no certi-
fcateS from obsure individuals, stating that
they have been cured of all manner ofincurable
diseases. deeming it an insult to the intelligence
of tho community to try to palm off such stuff
upon them. If these medicines are a humbuo
then medical science is humbug.
