having perfect apparatus for compromising

get better articles in the first place. but
also to present the medicine in better form
and at less price than the same preparations
could be possibly obtained from any other
source. DIR. Richmond has devoted all his
energies to the alleviation of human suffer-

cess is real is evidence by the fast that his
reputation as man and physician does not
deteriorate, and the fact that there is a
| steadily increasing ,le:nanl for his S,mari-
tan Nervine proves that it is no nostrum
but reliable remedy. He has repeatedly
informed the public that it is no patent
| medicine, and no patent has ever been asked
| for or obtained. Neither does he advertise
| it as cure all. There are hundreds of DIS
| cases that he acknowledges it will not cure
! 1t may be urgei that some of these diseases
are widely different that it seems absurd
| to prescribe the same remedy. They may
differ in symptoms, yet in character be pre-
cisely similar; and then we must take into
| consideration the fret that remedies may
possess various properties. Thus, some
| medicines are both tonic and alterativs;
others may be tonic and laxative, the prop
critics differing according to the quantity
| administered and the time AMI circum-
stances which demand its employment.
In the manufacture of any pharmaceu-
| tical preparation the purity and strength
| of the materials used, and the requisite
| machinery to be employed, are-. among the
chief essentials. The first is insured by
| purchasing the ingredients in large quan.l-
| ties, whereby the exercise of greater care in
selecting the materials can b. afforded; and
the second can only be accomplished where
| the business is sufficiently extensive to war
| rant large outlay of c,pital in procuring
| chemical apparatus. These facts apply
| with especial force to the manufacture Of
| our medicines. their quality having been
| vastly improved since the demand has be-
| come so great as to require their manufac-
ture in very large quantities.
These ideas are not mere speculative
remarks to mislead the reader, or to Undue
him with false views Of the superiority of
our medicines. While inspecting DIR. Rich
mond's establishments you would be sur
prised to see the admirable facilities, both
chemi al aud mechanical. which he employs
in the prosecution of mis- business. Every
| thing is arranged in the most perfectly sys-
tematic order, and while to the general
observer there appears to be no room for
Improvement, yet new. apparatus and M
