A Popular FsIlaey Triumphanty Rsfutsd-
Our sotsnporaFy, the Sunday C0rrirr, last
week Published the following testimony in IA
vOr Of the wonderful sheasy Of a celebrated
and universally popular medieaneut:
Yes. people will doubt and suspect and OF
st~inaiely refuse to believe in everything that
has not the certificate Of licensed authority and
old time precedent to support IT, Somehow Or
other, you cannot get them to put faith in tai
ent OF genius, or anything else, until Il has been
rendered respectable BY long custom, and has
achieved a secure position through years Of
trial and labOriOus fOsterage. Il was so With
Calico and the planetary system, with Harvey
and the circulation Of blood, with Newton and
he theory Of grayitatiOn, and, in more modern
times, with Fulton and steam, Morse and the
~sleetriet telegraph, Colt and his repeating
firearms.
No workers for the public good, no apostles
Of PhilanthrOPie benevOlsnee and goodwill to
mankind, have suffered so much from the un-
charitable suspicious and wesk-ninded ihered-
ulousness Of the public generally, as those who
have come out from among the thick fog and
almost imPenetrable darkness Of medical
science, and boldly standing on the principles
Of free trade in health and happiness, and the
universal rights of man to remedy By the sim
plest means the countless ills that flesh lie heir
to. have endsavOrsd to shed light and difuse
instruction upon the vital topics Of human LA
bility 10 disease, and the legitimate curative
means which lie within the reach Of all who
seek their own benefit, rather than that Of an
Feis and u~sed-up medical sligarehT. Those
apostles Of modern progress and enlightenment
have been called empiries-quaeksl Their
systems have been ridiculed-the wondrous
cures they have wrought treated with indiaer-
enee and eOntempt-ths ~testimonials to their
efficacy and success have been looked upon as
impostures, or as the paid for illusions Of
bribed and interested parties.
We are happy in the knowledge that we
have it in our power to record the merits Of at
least one case which has come under our own
personal supervision, and to place before the
public our testimony to the miraculous influence
and beneficial effects brought about By the
agency of a curative system which, even now,
has hosts Of supporters, as well as dstTsetors,
and which needs only to be brought to the no.
tice Of the public to be appreciated as one Of
the greatest benefits Of The age.
A person, with whom we are well acquainted,
had been for six weeks confined to bis be. with
disease of the kidneys and urethra, and, for
two or three weeks, had been subJectto pain of
the most exeruciating kind in the diseased To-
c~alities ;indeed, 50 violent at times was the tor
ture under which be suffered, as to bring on
sPasms and well nigh terminals in commissions.
During the whole time Of his illness be had the
attendance Of a proved and regular phy siciah,
to whom be, Of course, explained the symp-
toms Of his disease, and related the fearful
pains that he endured, but all without effect.
Medical science was completely at fault. In
dee the more the doctor tried to relieve him.
the worse be grew, and, during one particular
y violent attack, his wife became so alarmed,
that she sent for her husbands brother, fully
believing that the patient could not long sur
vive the agony be was compelled to endure.
The brother came, bringing with hin a bottle
of Railways Ready Relief, which the sick
man (faL. of the general prejudice on the sub
jeet) refused at first u apply, having as be
said, 8 no faith in ADVERTISED nostrumso (the
common cant Of the prsjudieed and ignorant
Prejudiees, however, at length sueeumbed to
pain, and, with much fear and doubling, he
was induced to allow its application.
He experienced almost instantaneous relief,
the pain entirely subsiding in a few minutes.
The next afternoon the regular doctor called.
He was very much surprised to ind the pain
was all gone, and, naturally, very much OBJ
jseted to the means which had produced that
happy result ; he didn't at all like the idea Of
Railways Ready Relief being successful where
his exploded system had failed. For the sake
of the reputation Of his profession, be, of
course, dill his best to underrate tbs miraculous
and fully proved powers Of the Relief, and, at
length, so worked upon the mind Of the patient
as to persuade him to allow The application Of
a Spanish hy blister. This blister had the eff
feet Of rstsrding the sick mans recovery for a
short time; but, in spite Of it, the inherent
healing qualities Of Railways Relief proved
triumphant, and, in less than a week, the seem
ingly dying man was well and hearty, and rap
idly acquiring his former state Of rudy health.
As we said before, this is a case which has
come under our notice ; we can voueh the par
ticulars, aud think it our duty to make as pub
lie as possible, 80 convincing aud unanswera-
bic a proof Of the wonderful efficacy and al
most miraculous curative powers Of Railways
Ready Relief.
The case cited by the Courier, illustrating
the bigoted opposition made By the medical
faculty to really valuable remedies, simply be-
cause they are more powerful and economical
than those prescribed BY the " regular physi-
~cians," reminds US Of a circumstance Of
somewhat similar character which came to our
knowledge recently. A doctor, who shall be
aameless, had tended a patient for a long
while, not only without curing him, but with
out having positively discovered shat was the
matter. Under this state Of affairs, be told
the invalid that he might call in other pbysi-
clans to consult, if he desired. The patient
said a" yes" but while the doctor was absent,
a friend happened in, recommended Railways
Ready Relief, and persuaded the sick man to
try it 1t produced beneficial effects almost
Immediately and the physician, on calling
next day, was surprised to find the disease 90
nearly vanquished. Upon being advised Of the
remedy that bad been applied, be strongly OBJ
jected to its further use; said he knew now
what the disease was exactly; and that he
could effect a cure in a 5. OFT time. Accord
ingly, be left a prescription, which the patient
ostensiely submitted to, but secretly continued
the use of the Ready Relief, as at first, and
was speedily entirely Teeuperated in health.
The doctor has not sent bis bill in yet, but we
suppose that be verify believes the extraordi-
nary cure to have been the effect Of his most
eficscious prescriptions. Fortunately, the pa
tient and ourselves know better.
We could produce, IL Unnecessary, a volume of
just such testimony as the foregoing-estab-
fishing beyond a doubt, the efficacy Of Rad
