"The name of DIR. Il. v Pierce has become
as familiar to the people all over the country
as household words. His wonderful rene
dies, his pamphlets and books, and his large
medical experience have brought him into
prominence and given him a solid reputation.
The Times, in the present issue, presents Il
whole-page communication from DIR. Pierce,
and our readers may gain from it some idea of
the vast proportions of his business and the
merits of his medicines. He has at Buffalo Il
named The Worlds Dispensary,' where
patients are treated and the remedies com
pounded. Here nearly hundred persons
are employed in the several departments, and
a corps of able and skilled physicians stand
ready to alleviate the sutierings of humanity
by the most approved methods. These ply
sicians are in frequent consultation with DIR.
Pierce, and their combined experience is
brought to bear on the successful treatment
of obstinate eases. The doctor is 4 man of a
large medical experience, and his extensive
knowledge of materia medica has been ac
knowledSed by presentations of degrees from
two of the first Medical Colleges in the land
How meritorous his works may be in
fcrred from the fact that his pamphlets and
books have been translated into German,
Spanish, and other foreign languages, and
have been in heavy demand. As evidence
of the business of the dispcnsary 1t is only
necessary to state that for the quarter ending
March 81, 1874, the sum expended for postage
alone, not to speak of that paid on newspapers
received, was S2,0SO.70. Aperusal of the com
munication will be found interesting reading,
and will show to what proportions n medical
institution can grow under able management
and well directed effort"

No MORE HEROICs.-The deadly veg
etable alkaloids, such as Mercury,
Strychnine and Prussic Acid, cannot
cure disease or produce any but the most
disastrous results. Perhaps no event has
occurred of late years which is SO well
calculated to disabuse the public mind
of belief in the efficacy of mineral
poisons and bleeding as the discovery of
DIR. Walker, of California, of certain
medicinal herbs, whose healing prin-
ciples he has extracted and combined in
the form of VINEGAR BITTERs. The cures
wrought by 1t seem marvellous Its ac-
ton is mild and agreeable, but at the
same time rapid and et1ectual, and being
unimpeded by the presence of alcohol or
fermented liquor of any description is
attended with results hitherto unachieved
by any remedial agent. The cures of
Bilious Complaints, Malarious Fever,
Dyspepsia, rheumatism, Scrofula, and
all diseases arising from impurities of
the blood attest the paramount excel
lence of this medicine, and justify us in
recommending it.
