trial 1t always speaks ~foritself. There are TWO tb;nr-
about this herb that appears to me surprising. 6rst
that 1t grows in our pastures, in some places on;,s
plentlful, and yet its value has never bean
known until L discovered it in lS46-seeond ,bat
it should cure all kinds of humor. ""'
In order to give ONE idea of the sudden risa
and great popularity of the discovery, I will stoto
that In April, 1858, I peddled it, and sold abont
SIX bottles per day-in April, 1854, L sold over one
thousand bottles per day of it.
some OF the wholesale Druggists who have been
IN business twenty and thirty years, say that notb-
ing IN the annals of patent medicines was ever
IKE II. There is a universal praise of it from all
quarters. ~
In my own practice I always kept it strictly for
humors-but since its introduction as a general
iamlly medicine, great and wonderful virtues have
been found in it that 1 never suspected.
Sew eral cases O. e~pileptic fts-a disease which
was always considered incurable, have been cured
by a few bottles. o, what a mercy if it will nrov,
eHectual In all cases of that awful maIadv-tbar,
are but few who have seen more of it than I have
know of several cases of Dropsy, all of then
aged people, cured by it. For the various disease
OF the Liver, Sick Headache, DYSPEPSIA. Astbma
Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side, Diseases Of III
rer. Spine, and particularly in diseases of the kidney,
&c. the discovery has done more good than an
medicine ever known.
No change of diet ever necessary-eat the be,
you can get and enough of it.
