GALLIGHAN’S VEGETABLE
FEVER AND AGUE PILLS
A certain and lasting cure for .| hat disease,
THE subscribers having been appointed special
agents for t!ie sale of Fever and
Ague Fills, is prepared to furnish planters and
country traders with supplies of fiaid article on
terms equally as favorable as they can ne obtained
of the proprietors
Gallighun’s Pills, though useful for all diseases
hich originate in a superabundant collection of
bile in the stomach, are more particularly intended
for Fever and Ague. In the first place they cleanse,
strengthen and give tone to the stonjiach and bow
els, and create a new and healthy action through
out the system. They produce a natural and per
manent appetite; they defend the | ; Vstern against
new or subsequent attacks of the; disease; they
assist the various operations of nature by cleansing
the system of all vitiated,corrupt anil acrid humors,
and thus invigorate and reanimate the whole frame.
Possessing a purgative quality, they! cannot remain
in the bowels to produce such other diseases as
often follow the injudicious treatment of the fever
and ague. They are composed entirely of vegeta
ble matter, and may be taken 1 y persons of both
sexes and of all ages, without the least danger of
unpleasant consequences. In fine, the public are
assured that Gallighan’s Pills possess those inesti
mable virtues, which are requisite hot only to ar
rest, but to eradicate and destroy the last seeds of
this most distressing malady of the human family’.
The proprietors solemnly pledge themselves that
they do not contain a particle of minerals in any
shape or form,but'are composed entirely of simple
vegetable substances, which either separately’ or
combined, and without regard to sex or age, are
perfectly harmless in their effects upon the human
system. ; !

Radical Cure ol Henuaor iiujpture, by J)i*.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
riIHE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug
1 store of Messrs. J. J. Roberson &Co., for the
treatment of Hernia or Rupture, pjf means of these
ustly celebrated instruments. 11(> has now used
them for nearly a year, and, didr 05: delicacy forbid,
he could name several persons whdhave been radi
cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
affection, by the use of these Trusses,besides many
others who are in a fairway of jbmng entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of tire com
mittee ot the Philadelphia Medial Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia. i :
“ The instruments of Dr. Chtjse have etlected
the permanent and accurate retk-rition of the in
testines in every case of Hernia - qbserved by the
committee, without material rncrir venience to the
patient, and often under trials bipre severe than
are usually ventured upon by wearother
trusses; trials that would be imjpl’udent with any
other apparatus known to the committee.”
“ The committee are induced jbri the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, in strpr.g terms, the in
struments of Dr. Chase to tliej confidence of
the profession, as the best known] means of me
chanical retention in hernia, and is furnishing the
highest chances of radical cure.” j :
The following is from the Southern Medical and
Southern Journal, published in oui| own city.
“ All must admit of the radical? cure of hernia,
and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best
y'et invented to elfect the object.”' i
Persons from a distance can have the instruments
applied, upon application at the office, and all ne
cessary information given co enablp them to adjvs
it themselves. The poor, who a.fe laboring under
this afflicting complaint, will be Heated gratuitous
ly upon presenting a certificate, iipirr someresponsi*
ble person, of their pecuniary disability.
The instruments are of all sizes.; and applicable
to every variety of reducible ruplju ire.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR THE {
itcha
Try- No article ever introduced to public notice has been
found to answer a belter purpose, or been more highly ap
proved, than the justly celebrated
Dumfries’ Itch Ointment.
SO preat and extended has become its reputation, that
dealers are ordering it from all parts of the country,
as a remedy which gives their customers the highest
satisfaction.
Student!—connected with one of our Liter
ary Institutions, where this loathsome disease had ap
peared, observes, that Dumfries'’ Itch Ointment extermi
nated it, after various other applications had failed to do
so, and it had in consequence gained a reputation in that
Seminary, and vicinity, as the best remedy known for the
Itch!
%♦ This preparation, for pleasantness, safety, expedi
tion, ease and certainly, is unsurpassed, if equalled. It
does not contain the least particle of mercury, or other
danperous ingredient, and may be applied with perfect
safety by pregnant females, or to children at the breast,
and it cures, however inveterate, in
One Hour’s Application only!—And no
danger from taking cold.
It is also one of the best applications for a humor, in
form of a ring-worm, known by the name of the Barbers’
Itch, Mid for Pimples, and diseases of the
skin generally.
Price 25 cents a box, with ample directions.
Caution ! Ce particular to observe that the only
original and genuine Dumfries’ Itch Ointment is signed
by T. Kidder, the sole proprietor, on the outside printed
wrapper. Try-None other can possibly be genuine !

RHEUMATISM.
COHEN’S RHEUMATIC EMBROCATION.—
Dr. M. B. Cohen, proprietor of the universally
j celebrated lotion for the cure of Chronic and Infla
matory Rheumatism. Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and
Swellings in the Joints, &c., known as Cohen’s
Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer
ail persons suffering from these disea es to the
thousands of cures that his preparation has accom
plished, and to tlic numerous strange and highly
respectable testimonials which have, from lime to
time, been published to that effect in New York
and other places. So certain and searching is tl is
Liniment in its operations, even in cases of lor;g
standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has
never been known to fail. Tire following letters
arc selected from hundreds of others of a like de
scription. It will be proper that all persons using
he Liniment, see that it is accompanied with the
signature of the proprietor in his own handwriting.
Since the introduction of this remedy to the public,
various empirics have been palmed upon the coun
try, Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and
“Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be
ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated,
more or less, to injure the system rather than re
move any complaint. In proof of the estimation
in which the Embrocation is held by respectable
men in the medical profession, as well as by the
thousands of persons who have been effectua ly
cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined
letters from a few who are well ami popularly
known to the entire society in New York, and
whose opinions and professional judgments are
universally esteemed.

CINQ JOURS,
OR f
ANTI-BALSAM]C GONORRHOEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
long known, and used with such unparralleled
success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap
pears to need no panegyric. Its operation upon the
human system is such that it invariably acts like
a charm, for the relief and radical cure of a certain
common and disagreeable “ills the flesh is heir to.”
This prize obtains its own name from the certain
success which has attended it through all of its
trying circumstances, namely, “five days,”—the
same success which followed it in a Northern lati
tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula
or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue
and hazard by M. Cheveres, from the celebrated
Indian Chief Wabekothe, or Great Moon, whilst
he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu
siness in the North-west with the Indians. —
Wabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable
success throughout his two tribes. Its known and
valued virtues have already enriched to an amost
incredible extent the children of this warlike prince,
not only by actual sale of the article itself to in
dividuals, but by parting with copies of his receipt
at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe of
Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the
Great Spirit, never to divulge the “ait of its com
position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although
free to use it in their respective tribes, which
places it in the hands of every Indian who rely
with, 1 may say, religious confidence on its cura
ble powers.
Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can
be anglisized of tiie deed given by Wabenoshe, to
M.Cheveret,when he purchased the original recipe,
and had twice assisted the Chief himself through
the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture.
Few white men would credit the length of time
which is consumed in preparing the article for im
mediate use.
TRANSLATION.
“I, Wabenoshe, Chief of the nations Ottowa and
Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I
have for my white friend M. Cheveret, (for he has
done many good things for me and my people,) I
give to him my greatest cure for the bad sickness
which my children have had sent among them as
a punishment by the Great Spirit, and hope that in
his hands it may do much good, and make him very
rich.”

is to subdue every vestige of inflaraation, and then

The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,”
is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to
atFect a cure, none of those tenacious and disagree
able consequences which almost invariably results
from the sudden cure of Gonorrhoea, have been
known to obtain such as stricture, hernia, humoi

most loathsome, perplexing, and disagreeable dis

treatment of Gonorrhoea.

years to tne cure ana removal ot tne ctusesof NER- '

iLction to make known, that he has a remedy which
by removing ihe causes cures effectually and perma

stiiuiional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as
sures them that they are mistaken, aed labouring
under distress which incy might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the us“ if his remedy.
It is the result of scientific research,and isenlirely
of a different character from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing compaint is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so ra :ch suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or
cure,is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a remedy kas been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on w hu h it acts are simpleand plain. It is
an a milled fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach—those who think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th" sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of the natural and
healthy functions of the system. 'Plus object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to aitam.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers with the headache become
convinced of it, (he sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
prefessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout

FiNIIE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo
-1 sit ion, especially in the Northern States, leaves
the proprietor hut little need to say any thing in its
favor: for it lias been generally conceded to it, that
it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex
ternal complaints that has ever been discovered.
Indeed ihe’spced and certainly of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds,
corns,fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake bites, &c. &c., immediately
yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, it prop
erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or
break and heal a bile in live days, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer in tw o weeks, and the most
desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima
t, gir ed have been destroyed by ii m less than two
[ months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effl
! cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its
powers of attraction are so wonderful that thry will
at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from
perva ting the system. It is likewise greatly supe
rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the
chafed hack and limbs of horses —lor tetters, ring
worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every exter
nal bodily evii that may fall to the lot of man or
beast.
The proprietor has received at least a thousand
certificates, and other documents, in favor of his
“ Specific Oinfra nt,” upwards of a hundred of
which were written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.

Dear Sir—My daughter,a girl of fourteen, was I
sadly afflicted witn ibecomp aim that physicians
i termed a scald head ; and 1 feared, indepe dent of
j every oilier evil, ihai she would be bald in conse- -
: quence. By the recommendation, however, of the !
[ Reverend Mr. ferrin, 1 applied your ointment io the ;
; afflicled part; and 1 thank God that rny child is ;
i now entirely recovered from the disease, and is :
getting her hair as fast as can be expected. The
. cure was effected in rather leas than two months; i
1 during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint- I
[ merit; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars i
i. during tiie previous three years, without any benefit !
whatever.

Dear Sir—l have to request of you to forward
me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most
immediate conveyance, and without regard to the
expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much
in want ol it. —You know my estimation of your
valuable discovery, and therefore 1 shall only add, j
that further «xperience lias increased rny enthusi
asm and established me in theopinion, that it is su
j penor to any remedy extant for external diseases.

Dr. Harrison.
Sir —The virtues of your Specific Ointment,have
been long known to me, as I have used none other
, in my rather extensive practice for several years, and
if you think it would be to your advantage, I can
, furnish you with twenty certificates of important
•; cures which it has effected under my own imme
diate inspection : the last being one of a severe
and apparently perpetual ulcer,in the back of a
poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di
. vision si reef, which it completely healed in twenty
i one days. My present chief object in writing to
you, is io learn w ho is your authorised agent in this
1 city, for,being in want of a supply of your oint
■ merit, and lfie person Mr. Beyle,from whom 1 used
to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of bust
! ness, lam fearful it 1 purchase a« random, that J
: may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

Dr Harrison.
Sir, —I have no hesitation in stating, in reply to
your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly
equal to the majority ol the ends for which you re
commend it. 1 qualify my certificate by the word
majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in
medical matters where 1 have had no experience.
In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit
lows, piles, it is m. universal recipe. I have
aLo used it on the leg of a boy which had been
bitten by an adder, and the extraction of l tie poison,
and ultimate cure was so rapid, that my patient was
a» well as ever in a week ; and has remained so to
this day
Yours respectfully,

r axHESE Pills are no longer among those of doubt-
X ful utility. They have passed away from the
hundreds that are daily' launched upon tiie tide of
experiment, and now stand before the public as
high in reputation, and as extensively' employed in
all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas
Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine tha*
has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering
man. They have been introduced wherever it was
found possible to carry them ; and there are but
ferv towns that do not contain some remarkable
evidences of their good effects. The certificates
that have been presented to the propiietor exceed
twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges of their merits.
Often have the cures performed by this mediciu
been the subject of editorial comment, in variou
newspapers and journals; and it may' with truth be
asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 lias ever re
ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at
tached to this.
They' are in general use as a family medicine
and there are.thousands of families who declare they'
re never satisfied until tlieyhavc a supply' always
on hand.
They have no rival in curing and preventing
Billions Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver
Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma,
Dropsy', Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen,
Piles. Chodc, Female Obstructions, Heartburn,

and Bowels, IncipientDiarrhcea,Flatulence,Habitu
al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow
Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels,
where a cathartic or aperient is needed They are
exceedingly' mild in their operation, producing
neither nausea, griping nor debility.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a
highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No
Ca.,March 3d,1838;
Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By request of your agent,
Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the
almost miraculous e libels of your piPs; and I would
add, that you may make use ol them, in connection
with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I
speak of their merits from experience, as I and my
family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three
years ; and so great ape the benefits we have receiv
ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur
chase them alien dollars a box than have my'house
without them. I will not enumerate Ihe afflictions
they have relieved us of; but 1 can assure you they'
were many, and of very opposite natures, which
has fully proved to me that your medicine isasirn
ple purifier of the sy'storn, and therefore equally
the enemy of every disease. I will mention one
case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe
riod severely afflicted with dropsy' in the chest and
was brought by' it to the very verge of the grave.
She was attended by the most eminent physicians
that money'could procure; but ail their efforts to
restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer
ings were fruitless ; and accordingly, we all consid
ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good
fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex
pect ngevery day to be her last, your pills were
introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal
pable were their effects that three doses visibly re
lieved her, and in less than three months she was
perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all
who were witness of it, (but more especially the
suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to
miraculous; and yet I could mention many more
of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills
were equally successful in rescuing the patients
from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu
larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in
this section of the country ? But this I presume
you know from the immense quantity' you dispose
of 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding
its general use, I never heard an individual complain
of its elfects. My residence is 12mi!es from j.a.
eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen
timents of regard, your ob’t servant.
A. G. BANKS.
To Dr. Peters.—Sir —For upward- of fifteen
months, 1 have been ciueily afflicted with Fever
and Ague; and during the time could find nothing —
though I had applied to every' thing that gave me
any thing ;ikc permanent relief. At length, how
ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one
of our best pby sicians, and 1 am most grateful and
i happy in being able to add, that I had scarcely used
1 two boxes when I found that they had restored me
■ to perfect health. Since then, various members of
my family have used them with equal success—
and consequently'l feel it my duty to apprise you
; of the fact, and to request of you to publish this
j certificate, as 1 am anxious to add my' public testi
; mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un
rivalled medicine Respectfully'yours,
THEODORE JAMES.

Communication received from the eminent Dr. J.
H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia ;
Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of
the Ilthinst.,l was called in great haste to the
house of a fellow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 found
his son laboring under a most alarming attack of
Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) and apparently be
yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for
tune, however, I had in my pucket a broken box of
your pills—four of which 1 administered, with
such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes
my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This
case, in connection with my name is at y'our ser
vice—and 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform
you that your inestimable medicine is in such great
favor with the faculty here, that 1 believe there is
i not one of them who does not use it in his private
j practice. Yours must resp’y.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo
gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838. —Peters’
pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi
cine, those effects being produced by the differences
of the quantify taken,and are decidedly supeiior
to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.
Extract fiom a letter by Dr. Hopson of Bangor,
Me , Jan. 9, 1839. They are a peculiarly mild, yet
efficient puigative medicine, and produce little, it
any, griping or nausea. 1 have prescribed them
with much success in sick headache and slight bil
lious fever.
Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of
Burlington, Vt., July 9, 1837. —1 cordially recom
mend Peters’ Pills as a mildly' effective, and in no
case dangerous, family medicine. They are pecu
liarly influential in costiveness and all the usual
diseases of the digestive organs.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Edw. Smith of Mon
treal, U. C., Sept. 27,183(3. —1 never kne\ a single
patent medicine that 1 could put the least confi
dence in but Dr. Peters’ Vegetable Pills, which are
really a valuable discovery. I have no hesitation
in having it known that I use them extensively in
my practice,for all complaints, (and they are not a
few) which have their source in the impurity of the
blood
Extract of a letter from Dr. Dye of Quebec, L.
C., March 6, 1837.—F0r bilious fevers, sick head
ache, torpidity of the bowels, and enlargement of
the spleen, Peter’s Pills are an excellent medicine.
Extract of a letter from Dr Gurney' of New Or
leans, La,,Oct. 9, 1837. —I have received much as
sistance in my practice —especially'in jaundice and
yellow fever, from the use of Peters’Pills. 1 pre
sume that, on an average, 1 prescribe 100 boxes in
a month
Extract of a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson,
N. Y., Juae 3, 183,0. —1 was aware that Dr. Peters
was one of the best chemists in the United States,
and felt assured that he would some day (from his
intimate knowledge of the properties of herbs
and drugs) produce an efficient medicine, and 1 must
acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond
to my expectations. They are indeed a supeiior
medicine, and reflect credit alike upon the Chemist
the Physician, and the Philosopher.

Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills in my practice for
he last twelvemonths, 1 take pleasure in giving
my testimony of their good effects in cases of dys

diseases, produced by inactivity' of the liver. They
are a safe and mild aperient, being the best article

Dec. 17,1836. —I am in the daily habit of prescri

favor.

OU L’ELIXIR DE L’AMOUR.
ffNIIE subscriber has the pleasured announcing
S lo the citizens of the U. States, lhat he ha*
purchased, for a very large sura and from the in",
ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris h, s
recipe ard rkht for making this astonishing mtdi
cine. Until the appearance of the “Lucina Cor
dial, ’’ (about three years since,) it was thought dial
the complaints,which it speedily overcomes. were
beyond the reach of human remedy, as for towards
of a thousand years, they had baffled the wisdom
and ingenuity of profound physicians in
all pans ot the world. This Cordial, however io
ihe great advantage of the human race,soon proved
itself to be the desideratum so long sought for
accordingly, notwithstanding tl e briel peri.J of ]u
existence, it has required a celebrity so g re . u> t p rt
it is eagerly inquired for throughout rhe civilized
globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand
was so vast as io renders supply impossible, dis
posed of the recipe and righl ol sale, under oblura
tions of secrecy, fer England, the United iSiat'iK
and other countries, only preserving France and*
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber pos
scss.ed himself of the invaluable secret ; and now
hastens togivethe inhahitantsof his lined agents
the benefits of his speculation.
“le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “ine
Lucira Cordial,” isa general invigorator of i! ie
human frame ! In all the various cases oi languor
lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme
dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful
ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor
to the body But the peculiar virtue on whidi'u*
celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with
which it restores the virile powers when they have
hern destroyed by disease.lime,recklessness,orany
of the numerous causes which terminate in the
prostration of those functions.
In common with the generality of really good
medicines, this C ordial contains nothing of a meu
curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre
dients which compose it ; but is, at die same time,
so simple, yet so fill cations, that while it can reno
vate ihe prostrated energies of a giant, an rnliin
rnay use it,not only with impunity, but with ad
vantage.
The usages of society are unfortunately such,
that, notwithstanding the hern fits which would be
sure to result from it. weeannot enter into an analy
sis ol this ine liniable Cordial here,. r publish many
of the documents which have been received, us
vouchers ol the blessings n lias conferred on num
bers of despairing individuals Bin. I is weeannot
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
lhat there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at ail,
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of
die procreantf unci ions, in either sex ; and therefore,
that these evils are the effects of artificial causes,
and may be speedily subdued and removed by the
use ot “ Le Cordial tie Lucine.”
The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure
for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus, obstructed, diffi
cult, <>r painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon
tinence ot Urine,or the involuntary discharge there
of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled
medicine incases of Chronic Eruptions of t lies kin,
and in the dropsical affections of the aged.
Most important to the American Public.
The United Stales proprietor of the celebrated
“ Lucma Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to Jay
before the community, the following certificate,
which he has received flora the inventor, the illus
trious Dr. Magnin,of Paris ;
“ Tfci.i is to certify,that I have disposed of the
recipe for msking the “Lucna Cordial,” or
“ Elixir of Love,” and also ihe right lo sell it

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels
October 3, 1837.
To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mos
gratified at the unprecedented popularity of your
“Luc na Cordial,” and am able io ;->ear testimony lo
its surprising virtue. I had a patient recently,
1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor
several years abandoned himself in the vortex os
dissipation ; and was only reclaimed Hum u at
length by the utter prostration of all his vir.leener
gies. lie was,indeed, reduced to the last exi remily
ot debility and tastelessness, lor, il an occasional
Hash of excitement warmed his system, the reac
tion was almost immediate,and the result perfect
prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums
io such cases; but, as 1 had anticipated, without
success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucma Cordial”
advertised, 1 must confess lhat even the great weight
of your name did nor give me much hope m it, at
least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt
bound lo try it,however,and was soon satisfied oi
its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, mV
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity ol
his system ; and he is now, having used lour bodies,
as well is ever.
The number of documents, such as the above
which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the
first appearance of “Le Cordial de Lucine,” would
fill a volume as large as the Bible.
