The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1880-12-23
PERSO n AIS.

Truth seeks neither place nor APP.
plause. Sue only asks a hearing. A
reasonable man will not condemn be-
| fore he reads, nor approach before he
investigates. The man who pronounceS
| judgment upon question without first
hearing all the evidence bearing upon
the subject, may be regarded as a per-
son without philosophy or common
sense. Men are but the creatures of a
day, while principles are eternal.
Within period of eighteen years
nearly zoe, 900 persons have made use OF
my medicines, and 100000 or more OF
these patients have been radically cured
of diseases that were regarded as incU-
rable by friends and physicians. Among
all these thousands of severe cases no
injury or accident has ever resulted
from the use of any Of my remedies
As an evidence of the truth of my state
ment, and of my entire good faith in
making it, hereby pledge myself to
pay $4,000 to any person who can show
any one OF my patients to have suffered
injury from the application of any med
icine prepared or prescribed by me up
to the date hereof, June lst, A. d. 1879.
Notwithstanding my remarkable re-
cord and experience in saving human
life, and relieving the ills to which
mankind are subject, am frequently
told that it is unprofessional to adver-
tise my remedies and cures, and / am
asked why | do not let my medicines
advertise themselves?
The government advertises its securi-
ties, the merchant his goods, the church
its services. If it is proper for the Gov
eminent and the merchant to advertise
for investments in their securities or
merchandise, why is it not right for me
to advertise to heal the sick? II it is
legitimate for the church to advertise
their services for the salvation of the
soul, why should it not be equally legi-
innate for me to advertise how to save
the body? III have the means to cure
Catarrh, Bronchitis. and Consumption,
it would be cowardly as well as crimi-
nal in me not to make those means
known to suffering humanity in the
most expeditions and effective manner
possible. If possess the power to save
a precious life, | should be unworthy OF
the name of man, did l not proclaim it,
even at the expense of being styled a
humbug and quack by every old gran
ny who CHANGED to see my announce
ments. Webster's definition of quack
is ian ignorant Prerender." Many
wears ago | was declared competent 10
practice medicine and surgery, and If
the reader thinks me an Ignorant pre-
tender" that L am nos well posted IN
my profession, let him bring to my Of
flee the best intelligence from among
the profession, and then and there show
an equal intelligence in regard to the
diseases of the human body, let me be
branded before the world as an "ignor-
ant pretender." 1 invite sharp criticism,
but have the most supreme contempt
for silly dOubters.
