SPRING DISORDERS.


In the spring of the year pill makers
reap rich harvests from the sale of their
nostrums. A single dealer has informed
us that in town of 5000 people, between
the first of March and the firstof June, he
has sold rs many as 900 boxes of pills.
OF course thew have been pulled well by
almanacs devoted to that purpose. The
reason why there is always such demand
for physic in the spring is, because when
the warm weather of March and April
comes, people keep on eating too much
food, more than can be managed by the
stomach, except during the cold weather.
The result is. the stomach is oycrtaXed,
the liver and bowels DISTRACTED, the blood
deteriorated and the patient, for want OF
knowledge. knows no better than to resort
TO physic. The true method to be obsery-
ed in such cases is on the approach OF
spring, to eat less food, and that OF mild
er nature. The brown bread should take
the place of the white, if white is used in
the winter. More fruit should be taken
Avoid stale vegetables. If you have not
good potatoes eat none, for poor potatoes
are very unwhoesome. Ifyou have good
potatoes. bake or boil them, and no: fry
or hash !, eat with fresh cream instead OF
gravy or butter Use freely of canned
fruit, or well kept apples; at least one
meal. Avoid fat meat, pastry, cakes,
rich buildings, and live simply and natu-
rally. Every family should put by for
spring use sufficient good fruit, to have it
abundant in March. April, and May, and
as soon as strawberries ripen they should
be used freely. Strawberries for those
who have attacks of the disorders incident
to spring, are one of the best remedies
that can be used. We pity the family
that does not have them in abundance and
early ones too. Nature seems to have
made them on purpose to meet demand
of the system in early summer. and we
have known many cases of invalids being
greatly improved by their free use. Will
son, the ornithologist, was once ordered
to live on strawberries, in order to cure
an obstinate dysentery, and to his surprise
he was cured in less than week. The
tomato, which can be canned in almost
unlimited quantities, so as to be as fresh
and good in the spring rs in autumn,
should also be used freely, and not as an
occ tsional luxury but rs irregular article
of diet. They are especially wholesome
at this season Of the year. These simple
rules followed, will in most cases prevent
much disease and suffering .-Hcro'd Of

A CASE OF TWENTY YEARS STANDING
PHILADELPHIA, Penn, June %, lSC
August IL, 1865 40 wood-st., Pittsburg, Penn

II. T. HELMBoLD, Druggist-DEAR SIR: l have
been sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel, bladder and kidney affections during which
time have used various medicinal preparations
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively adj
vertised, consulted my family physician in regard
to using your EqtractiB uchu.
/ did this because had used all kinds of adver-
tised remedies and had found them worthless, and
some quite injurious; in fact, despaired of ever
getting well, and determined to use no remedies
hereafter unless knew of the ingredients. 1t was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of buchu, cubebs
and juniper berries it occurred to me and my ply
ician as an excellent combinations and with his adj
vice, after an examination of the article and con-
sulting again with the druggist, concluded to try
it. commenced to use it about eight months ago,
at which time vas confined to my room
From the first bottle was astonished at the ben
efcial effect, and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out / felt much like writing to you a
full statement of my at the time, but thought
my improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer, and see il it would
effect perfect cure, knowing that it wonld be OF
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me-
am now able to report that cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
have not used any now for three months, and
feel as well in all respects as | ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor, nice tonic and invigorator of the system
! do not mean to be without it whenever occasion

EDITOR COsMOPLITE: l desire, as an unsolicited
tribute to the merits of HelmbOld's Buchu and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted as myself to
say that after consulting many eminent ply sicians,
and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies,
in the vain hope of finding relief from aggravated
kidney and bladder diseases, from which have
suffered excessively for many years, good fortune
commenced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for about month. At the expir-
alton of that time however, thought commenced
to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to
persevere in its and now, at the expiration of
four months, although ] am infirm old man,
nearly 1s years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favorably affect me as thew
otherwise would, l have found such unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbod's
valuable discovery that feel | ought to publicly
record the fact, as an acknowledgement to him and
a valuable suggestion to the public.
