PROGRESS OF THE REVOLUTION A
new light dawned upon the world with the
introduction of Plantation Bitters twelve
years ago. Drastic purgation went out
restoration and renovation came in. The
eyes of the people were opened to the
great fact that the way TO cure disease is
to strengthen its victims, not to place them
at its mercy by depriving them Of the little
strength they have 1t soon became eyi-
dent that as means of infusing vitality
into the feeble system, regulating the Sc
cretions, curing Indigestion, and reforming
bilious habit of body, no medical prepar-
alton then known was at all comparable
to the new restorative. Since then hun
dreds of attempts have been made to rival
the Btters. They have all failed and the
Grand Revolution in Medical Treatment,
which was commenced in 1860, is still in
progress Nothing can stop it, for it is
founded on the principle, now universally
acknowledged, that physical vigor is the
most formidable antagonist of all human
ailments, and experience has shown that
Plantation Bitters, is peerless invigorant
as well as the best possible safeguard
against epidemic diseases.

The friends and adhereuts Of The old Board It
ectured would rally 10 its support and there seemed to
be danger that conflict such occurred in 1857 might
ensue. Mayor Hall became nervous. and writing brief
telegram directed TO superintendent Kelso asking for
