ever valuable, gave me any re lef In March, 1862,
as you may remember, wrote to you stating my dI

Iwould add that several persons of my acquaint

The White inc compound, advertised at length in

The editor of the Manchester Daily and Weekly
Mirror, in aeader of the Daily, thus speaks of the
Compound:
"The White Pine Compound is advertised at much
length in our co umns, and we are happy to learn
that the demand for it is increasing beyond all previ-
Gus expectations. 1t is the very best medicine for
coughs and colds we know Of, and family that has
once used will ever be without it. We speak from
our own know edge, it is to Kill cold, and
ant as sure. The greatest inventions come by acct
deut, and it is singular that the Viii inc Com
pound. made for Colds and Coughs, should prove to
be he greatest remedy for kidney dicu ties known
But soitis. We cannot doubt it, so many testmo
mails come te us from wei known men, Besides, the
character of DIR. Pc and is su that know he will
not countenance what is wrong. For years Bap-
tist clergyman, studying medicine to find remedies
for his ailments, with delicate comsumptive look,
standing with one foot upon the ave, he made the
discovery which has saved him elf and cal ed out
from hundreds of others the strongest testimonials
possible. We have know DIR. Pc AID for years, and
never knew a more conscientious, honest, upright
man, and we giad to state that we believe what
ever he says about his White Pine Compound zls
