OF THANKLULNESS

TNIIE ngratiude of man to his fellow man is so
l. often met with in life that testimonials,
prompted by the finer feelings of the heart, are

Of the ills of frail mortality. Empiricism floods
the columns of our press with fraudulent and fc-
tltlOus letters singing pTans to the worth of ftheir
own egoistcal charatansm. Below we append

the advice of many physicians, who at first re-
garded my disease as of trihing importance-but
alas! after few weeks, and in several instances
months, of their treatment, found to nv unut
tcable horror that instead of relief the SYMPTOMS
became more alarming in their torture; and
being told by one that my disease being princi

little consequence, despared of ever regaining
my health, strength and energy; and as a last re-
sort and with but faint hope, called upon DR.
