nord County, North Carolina.
PINE HILL, March 4, 1854.
DEAR SIR: have been subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said l must die. While in this con-
dition was carried to the watering places in Vir-
ginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina, TO try the effect OF
some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icine for my child and myself There were several
Of the village physicians in the store and one of them
seemed to take some interest in my case, and after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys-
peptic and had been greatly benefited by the use
he insisted that would try the Bitters. He also
called the next day at my ROOM and insisted so much
that would try them that / asked him to get me
one bottle He did il, and commenced taking it as
directed and was more benefited by it than oil the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home, one of my neghbors came TO
me for prescription and medicine, (he dyspeptic)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case. He has often called
on me for more of the kind of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since. Will you, therefore, please ship
me dozen or more as soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH.

Thus they early become, not only theoreti-

casionally brought into requisition, at the in

minds of the children are thus led up from
a contemplation of the curosties of chem

inquiry into their causes. This done, the
