assnredy acting directly to the contrary for they are
exhibiting remedy that is kaOgn to be Just what il
pprports to bea remedy that has been tested in nun

with the happiest results-a remedy that enjoys the
confidence Of almost the entire population in sections Of
the country where has been iltroduced-a remedy that
is acknowledged by both those in out Of the profess

physician? To find out remedies What does the sick
patient crave and required Remedies. What are nee
essry to his recovery Not professional PRIDE not pro-
fessonal exclusiveness not arrogant assumption not
long faces with wondrous wise expressions not second
hand distinctions, but remedies. He cares not how
learned how scientific his physician NAV be- he wants
remedies lt for these which he pays his money 10
him, and which he hopes to get from him. It is Of
precious little moment to the patient whether is an
orthodox remedy with the profession, or patentn so

with every remedy you admniserj is thus all, he
expects you to possess knowledge every remedy that

business OF the profession which you have ia

too WI hout stopping to inquire from whence the remedy

"BLIsS DYSPEPTIC REMEDY" has been placed
before for you reject. It is for YOU To
receive, examine and test it, It been placed before
you in precisely the all other remedies
have been Every remedy under heaven, tolthout a
single exception, has been discovery Of the purest
accidentthe bndest chance and each its turn was
received examined tested and duly certified f good
by 'the order" You know Just as much about Bliss
DYSPEP1IC REMEDY" as you do any other remedy,
before the test and by subecg to the that
ali other remedies have been subjected to- you will then
know its remedial qualities and true WORTH and act in
good faith when you advise it to your patients.
Simply be it is "patent,n is no reason why YOU
should dis card it. There is not single remedy on Gods
earth but is "patent" in precisely the way that
tBLlsS' rYSPEPTIC REMEDY" is Why? Because
you know nothing about them until you have tried them
and tested them. There is no connection, natural
relation whatever betw disease and drugs. What vas
known about Peruvian Bark Rhubarb when first dir
covered in the forests. Nothing. What do you know
about theln nowr Nothing, except that you have tried
Peruvian Bark in Ague, and know that viii it.
You nothing about Rhubarbexcept you have tried
it. and found that moved The bowels. Was there any
thing in the color shape SMELL taste, weight Of the
Peruvian Bark that suggested the idea that pos
sessed properties Of curing Agaewas there anything
the COLOR shape, sue taste, or weight Of the Rhubab
root that told you possessed properties Of moving the
bowesr No. Their properties sscerained only by
trui hV
REMEDY, n and you will then know allsabout it Test
it, as you have done other remediesascerain what its
properties for It, and Judge Of it,
test it, and think about for yourself and not depend
for letter Of recital Of its properties ogre-
dents my, any elses opinion of it, and like the
flock foown the bell wether bndly trot on in the path
others have tIOd.
In your letter you also say that sit the intention Of
several OF the Fraternity around me to do all they to
discourage its use and they WILL know do all in their
power to Jesse It's sale. certainly very sorry that
they should come to any such determination, my
account however, their oFn but account of their
poor patients do not question the purity tf tn motive
which prompts them thus attempt the achievement OF
moral impossibityj but as the Irishman said, who
young all mady attempt, railroad track, TO
stop engine when under full Roadway, by bawling,
"Be Jasus like your spunk, but damn yer Judgment"
And now, in concusion-I think have given good and
sufficient reasons why physicians should hesitate to
recommend 'IjLIss' DYSPEPTIC REMEDY" There
great ny physicians in fact very large major
ity, who know do not hesitate in their practice
and recommend it, not only to their patients, but admin
lister in their families and have in my possession
hats full of letters physicians attesng its remark
able efficacy, and with the exception Of or two
instances all enthusiastic in its praise and pre-
among the whole number but that com.
menced with it with great deal OF dsrust, hesitation,
and doubt all of which, however, very quickly vanished
after making p thorough trial and following up the
