What time es tablishes and consecrates, what experience adopts and confirms, w hat fill men in all places unite in saying is good and valuable, is so, no doubt. A popularity of this sort fixes in society its routs so deep and so strong, that time cannot destroy it. — i The success which has attended this medicine for ! several years past, has overcome the prejudices of all resj>ectable and sensible men, and the article has taken a stand among the first class of discove ries and blessings of the ago; and when resorted to in season, eradicates the diseases for which it is recommended. We cut the following from the Bellows' Falls c Gazette, of January, 1815. WISTAR’S BALSAM. —Notwithstanding our aversion to puffing, as many do, everything that comes along in the shape of Patent Medicines, and the fact that w e scarcely ever take medicines of any kind, yet we leel that we should be doing injustice to the community hy withholding longer the favorable opinion we have of Wistar’s Bal sam, in cases of colds and pulmonary complaints. Having witnessed its good effects in several in stances, we believe it to be an excellent article.
