D. w. Vowles, NJ. D., of Fowler.
Adams Co., Ills, writing DIR. Pierce
says: Il send herewith .thirty-o no
cents (3D in stamps for The Peoples
Common Sense Medical Adviser in
French cloth. With this pittance for
so valuable work, (truly gift to the
public, must express my high appre-
citation Of the vast amount of good that
you have rendered the public. A cor
rect measure of your usefulness never
will be made by the public, or. the
multitude of afflicted humanity that
has been relieved and cured by your
medicines. Wherever I go, or have
been in the United States, 1 find per-
sons who have used, and are using Dr.
Pierce's medicines with satisfaction.
and confidence in their virtues for all
conditions for which they are recon-
mended. Never has one spoken dis
paragingly Of their action, and l must
say that. from having seen so often
their good effects. l am also enthused
with confidence in their action in cases
and conditions for which they are
recommended. 1t is not common for
regular physicians to endorse and
recommend proprietary medicines, but
in this case 1 have no equivocation or
hesitancy in so doing.
Il am graduate of two regular col
leges of medicine of high standing. and
do not regard it whatever as deroga-
tory or even prejudicial to good stand
ing. or as departure from the code of
professional ethics, in an old man of
10 years, who has been in the regular
practice since 1859, to award the just
need of praise to one whose laudable
works elicit the grateful thanks of
thousands who have been relieved by
his energy, brains and skill.
Il am Southerner; been practicins
here for the past II years.
will say in conclusion, that l met |
you several times while you were in |
Congress and that you are doing now |
Congress has done in many years past.
In plain words you have been a bless
ing to thousands of suffering hui
