SPREAD TILE TRUTH

Some medical men insist that it is undignifed
TO advertise remedy, however valuable it may
be. Queer reasoning this. tits like saying that
an article which the world needs should be hid in
eorner-that the means of protecting and re-
storing health should be "a close monopoly, and
not accessi lie to all. The argument is bad. 1t
is worse than that; it is inhuman Suppose Hos
dyspepsia, bilious and nervous deblity-had
never been known beyond the repertoire of the
faculty, what would have been the consequence :?
Instead Of curing and invigorating Millions the
good effects Of the preparation would have been
confined to comparative few. There is the
highest authority for saying that light should not
be hid uuder bushel; that whatever is excel
lent should he placed as city on hill, where
all men can take cognizance of it, 1t is upon
this principle that the Bitters have been adver-
tised and continue to be advertised in every news
paper Of any prominence in the western hemis-
phere and that the spontaneous testimonials in
its favor have been translated into all written
languages. Thousands enjoy perfect health to-
day who would be languishing on BEDS Of sick
ness if the newspapers had not spread the truth
with regard to this unequaled inyigorant and
corrective far and wide. Suppose profit has been
repaid from this publicity. Is that any argu-
ment against it? If the public health has been
protected; if lives have been saved; if he feeble
have been strengthened and the sick restored,
great good has been accomplished; and who so
mean to grudge to exertions thus directed their
fair reward?
