From Rev. J. Newton Brown, d. D.. editor of
the Encyclopedia of Religious knowledge and
Christian Chronicle Philadelphia:
Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their ingredients and effects yet know of no suf-
feient reasons why man may not testify to the
benefit he believes himself to have received from
any simple preparation, in the hope that he may
thus contribute to the benefit of others.
1 do this the more readily in regard to HOof-
lands German Bitters, prepared by DIR. &. VI.
SacksOn, of this city, because l was prejudced
against them for many years, under the impress
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
| am indebted 10 my friend. Robert Shoemaker,
ESQ, for the removal Of this prejudice by proper
tests and for encouragement to try them when s1f-
fering from great and long continued debility.
The of three bottles of these Bitters at the
beginning of the present year, was followed by
evident relief and rostOratian to degree of bod
lily and mental yigOr which l had not felt for six
months before and had almost dcspaired of re-
gaining. | therefore thank God any Iny friend for
directing me to the use of them.
