DIR. j. H. ScHEScE, Phia Pa:
Dear Slr-I wrlto this to let you know that
my little daughter Henrietta. whom you saw
ON your visit to this city in tho fall OF 1879, has
entirely recovered her health by tho use OF
your Medicines. I wish also at tho same time
to give you some facts In regard to her case
which did not havo timo TO do when you
were hero. My daughter was considered n
healthy child until tho month OF November,
1878, when sho was attacked with Remittant
Fcvcr, with which sho was sick for n long timc.
As she was recovering from It she took heavy
cold, which settled on her lungs, producing n
constant hacking cough. As several of her
mothers relatives had died OF Consumption
we were much troubled In regard to her case
especially as our physician told us that her
lungs wero weak. and after hcr cough had
continued some tlme, that they wero seriously
affected. He prescribed many things for her
principally cod-llver oil and stimulants: but
she kept getting worse and worse. until at last
hc told us that thcrc was no hope for recovery;
and, to satisfy us that he had dono all that 1t
was possible for him 10 do called in two other
doctors. They, after consultation agreed that
shc must die and that al wo could do was to
mako her comfortable while she lived. This
was In tho month OF September, 1870 AL
though we were assured by our physician that
our Ilttlc uuuBntcr could not get well, yet we
were always looking over tho papers to try to
IND something that would at least preserve
her llfo for a time. Ono evening read In tho
ALBANY EVENING TIMES tho statements of
many who had been cured OF serious lung dis.
cases by your Medicines. md feeling that they
ut least could do her no harm, | concluded to
give them trial. | therefore went to tho drug
store Of Mr.. Miller. n gentleman with whom
was well acquainted, and asked him Whit no
knew or thought of your Medicines. He said !:
~ have heard them highly spoken OF by my
customers, AMI believe them TO DO good" /
then bought n bottle of the Pulmonic Syrup
as vol as some OF the Mandrake Pills and Sea.
weed Tonic, and my daughter commenced to
use them according to tho printed directions
We all soon saw that they were doing her good
When she hal taken them about two weeks We
noticed by the paper that you wcro to visit AL
bany professionally, and, taking advantage of
this opportunity. We had you see her. Although
you dld not see her at tho worst. you OF course
remember her apparently hopeless condition.
We can only say that from the Medicines you
gave her she soon rapidly improved and be.
came healthy and strong We give you this Ger.
tlicate or letter that others may know OF your
great Medicines. l am satisfied that you saved
the lito OF my child. as she was pronounced be-
You'd medical aid by three OF tho best physi-
clans Of this city.
Respectfully yours,

MANDRAKE PILLS

Do not produce sickness At the stomach, nausea
or gripping. On the contrary, they are so mild
and agreeable in their action that person suffer-
ing with sick headache, sour stomach, or pain
IN the bowels, is speedily relieved of these dis
tressing symptoms. They act directly on the
liver, the organ which, when in healthy condi.
ton, puriics the blood for the whole body.
They are perfect preparation Of that great and
well-known remedy, Mandrake or Podophyllip, a
remedy that has displaced the use Of mercury, as
well as many other poisonous drugs, in the prac-
tice OF every Intelligent physician.
