 DR. JoHN BuLL-Dedr Sir: have recent ly given your ..Worm Destroyer" several trials, and find il wonderfully etficacious. It has not failed in asingle insiaiice to haye the wished for effect. nm doing pretty large country practice, and have daily use fo.- som article of the kind. lam free to confess that know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors that is 90 certain and speedy in it's effects. On the contrary they are un- certeain in the extreme. My object in writ ing you is to find upon what terms l can get the medicine directly from you. If can get it upon easy terms l shall use great deal of it. l am aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the teachings and practice of a great majority of the regutar line of NJ. D S.. but see no just cause or good sense in dis carding remedy which know tJ be efi cient, simply because we may be ignorant of it's combination. For my part shall make it rule 10 use all and any means to alleviate suffering humanity which l may be able to command-not hesitating because some one more ingerious than myself may have learned it's effects first. and secured the sole right to secure that knowledge. However, am by no means an advocate or supporter of the thousands of worthless nostrums that flood the country, that purport to cure All manner of disease to which human flesh is heir Plcas e reply soon. and inform me of your bes, terms. am. sir. most respectfully.
