striving to perfect schemes whereby the
masses NAV be benefited and elevated to q
higher plane OF usefulness in life. Science
has dlspelled superstition in all the civil
| ICED lands, and is rapidly making inroads in
the climes where belief in witcheraft and
the "black art" have for centuries made mis-
erable the lives Of the inhabitants. A hun
dred wears ago, even in this beautiful section
| of the country, now almost the centre of
civilization and culture, had person assert
ed that the infections of the human voice
could be transmitted TO distance Of hun
| dred miles he would have been treated either
as luuatic or an emissary of Satan. In a.
| like manner would the compounder of any
medical remedy have been treated had he
! claimed for his production the virtues now
| generally ascribed to Hunts Remedy, In
| proof of this latter assertion read the fol-
| low statements made by we'll l-known citizens
of Providence; Mr.. Edward r. Dawley,
with Waldron, Wghtman 4 CO., gives a
remarkable testimonial of the worth of
! Hunts Remedy. Mr.. Dawley SAID FOR
many years suffered intensely with what |
had every reason to believe was rheumatism
| When was first attacked was confined TO
my bed and could not walk a step; could
| hardly bear the weight of the bed-clothes,

I | believe. sincerely, that the Remedy reached
the cause of my whole trouble
have known Of great many cases Of
kidney dlsayraugemeuts that were cured by
the Remedy. To my own knowledge it IS,
aud has been for number Of wears, used
extensively throughout the State. 1t is ex-
tensNey prescribed by several Of our lead
+ InS phl lsscIans and they are free to admit
/ that, for the treatment Of the various kid
/ ncy troubles, they cun hnd no satisfactory
substitute. Hunts Remedy has been used
very successfully, and with beneficial results,
m my own family outside OF my own lndIvld-
/ ual case. Ny relatives have also used II
+ with good results. Not only that, but sew
eral Of my friends and Acquaintance, of this
/ city and State have had their attention called
to Hunts Remedy by me, and they have
aIWaNs found the same benefit IN their own
cases. One Of the most remarkable cures
coming 10 my knowledge was the case Of a
very prominent manufacturer IN the south
ern part Of Rhode Island. He had suffered
for long term Of years with kidney disease,
/ Vet less than two bottles Of the Remedy en-
/ t!rry cured HIM. \ sister Of this same
gentleman, resident Of Connecticut was
suterug with what her doctors called
I Brghts disease of the kidneys, She DIS
carded their medicines. and took Hunts
Remedy and vas entirely cured By its use.
/ Il Is my belief that the Remedy is destined
4 to be the standard remedial agent through
out the country wherever known, as specI-
