What does Reason Say


The little mongoose when bitten by deadly
escapes the effect of the poison That is instinct
Human beings on the other hand, must depend
on reason and experience in selecting the means
of protecting health and life against unwholesome
influences. Now, what does reason say on this
vital subject? Does it not tell that to invigo-
rate and purify the system is the best way to pro-
tect it against the invisible poison which gener-
ates disease? Surely, it does. The next question
is, what guide shall we follow in choosing a me-
dicinal safeguard? Reason replies let your mon
itor be experience Well, the experience of
eighteen years comprised in one unbroken series
of satisfactory testimonials assure that Hos
letters Stomach Bitters possess Strengthening,
regulating and antiseptic properties which are
not combined in the same happy proportions in
any other preparation extant This therefore is
the antdote to which reason bids us resort when
our health is imperilled either by the malaria
which produces epidemic disorders, or by any
other cause whether inherent and constitutional
OF connected with our habits, occupations and
pursuits.
The venom Of noxous reptile is scarcely
more subtle and dangerous than that which
turks in foul air and impure water TO escape
the fevers, bilious disorders disturbances of the
bowels, and other serious maladies produced by
these insalubrious elements it is absolutely nee
essary that the stomach and all the secretive or
gans should be, SO to speak, in a ROBUST condi-
ton. Upon the amount of resistance which the
vital system can oppose to the deleterious infu-
ences that assail it, the safety of the health de-
pc nds, and it is because the GREAT VEGETABLE
INvIGoRANT imparts energy and regularity to
the most important functions of the body, that
it can be recommended and guaranteed rs an in
valuable preventive medicine, ,-
10 the Nervous.
The natural result Of exhaustion OF strength
by excessive labor or action, is feeling of weak
ness, dullness hesviness, WEAKNESS, languor of
body mind &c. Persons of weak constitu-
tons, or whose habits are sedentary, frequently
complain of this relaxed condition of the vital
energies; and when persons of nervous tenn
permanent are thus weakened and debilitated, dis
ease inevitably follows, unless is at check
ed and overcome. All who suffer from these
causes alike require a remedy which will
strengthen the system without exciting it, and
awake a feeling of true enjoyment so that life
may become q source of pleasure. MIsHLER' S
HERB BITTERs has won its way into the conf
dence of thousands of thousands of this class of
persons, who warmly endorse it as the best in
vigoratng agent and the most potent and genial
of all tonics and alternatives for strengthening
and restoring the physical constitution.

perfect success. In the case Of our little

schools and asylums a great amount Of
annoyance; and many apoor child, suffering
more from weakness than habit, may be
spared punishment that is (not knowing 1t is

Ipropose to give evidence that this RENE
dy is not 4 Patent Medicine. The objection
which generally lies against all discoveries
and inventions in medicine is Publicity"
II somebody should discover a remedy topro.
long life, or an infallible cure for cholera or
consumption, what a monster would he be to
withhold his knowledge. We have yet to
learn from what chapter or verse in Scripture
to quote. that men may not heal others Of
their fellow men Of any disease"
Nor have we asked Pickvicks, Affected
Prudes, or. in short, men who are possessed
Of every kind Of sense but common sense,
and all kinds Of opinions but their own. The
Buchu Is a good thinR-it has hundreds Of
thousands Of living witnesses to attest ito
virtue and commend it. It is the prejudice
Of bigots and the envy Of " ouacks."

inform you Of one instance (among many
where your "Buchu" has worked wonders.
A man in our county, named ]. b. Estcil,
had been suffering about five years with
gravel. About six weeks ago he bought OF
US one bottle Of your "Buchu." and before
he was through with one bottle he passed
gravel that weighs eight grains. which We
now have on exhibition in our drug store.
He says that he will never be without the

rhs frst and most important object was to
offer to the afflicted a remedy that was per-
feetly safe, and could be taken BY adults
children. Ignorant persons, who pay no A.
~,.ntion to dose, direction or advice, who
mish. reason that "if a tsaspoonful taken
occasionally did good, two would do better
and perhaps a bottle would cure in a day"
MANY have broken down their health By
dissipation and on this principle but they
had been years in doing 50.
What 1 would have understood Is that no
injury can result from Its use. It Is as safe
a, any article Of food, but patients must not
expect any medicine to rebuild a wrecked or
shattered constitution in a few days, and per-
haps with a single bottle.
Notwithstanding the number Of years l
have been engaged in business there may be
those located at a distance that may not be
aware Of all the facts, and would like to be
satisfied on all the points. Having been edu-
Gated a druggist I append the following

Mr.. H. T. Hclmbold-Dear Sir: About
two years ago I was troubled with both In
Aammation OF the Kidneys and Gravel, and
I resorted to several remedies, without deriv-
ing any benefit whatever; and seeing your
EXTRACT BucHu advertised, I procured 4
few bottles, and used them. The result was
a complete cure in q short time. I regard
your EXTRACT Bucuv to be decidedly the
best remedy extant for any and all diseases
Of the Kidneys, and I am quite confident that
Il will do all you claim for it. You may pub.
lish this II you desire to do so.
Yours respectfully,
