TTNHE ineratitude Of man to his fellow man Is so
often met with in life that testimonials
prompted by the finer feelings OF the heart are
oasis in the life Of those who sacrifice their best
days in philanthropic devotion to the allevaton
of the ills of frail mortality. Empricsm floods
the columns Of our press with fraudulent and fcti
tous letters, singing peans TO the worth of their
own egotistcal charlatanism. Below we append a
letter from a worthy man who, brief period since.

hand of disease can. Contrary to hope. the ability
OF skiIlfu physician has restored him to his for
mer health. Relieved from his terrible situation,
and impelled by gratitude, he makes known his
case and remedial agent, and bis statement is au-
thenticated by Notary Public. The demands Of
society mperiousy command its publicity, and it
given more 10 warn the unwary than to sound the
praises of physician Of whom scores of like cases
can be cited:
