Telford, Missionary in China, now visiting his home in Penn.] Washington, Ponn/., June 25, 1866. Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, Providence, R. I.—Dear Sirs : —Dufing a residence cf some ten years as a ridssionary in Siam and China, I found your Vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. in administering tho medicine I found it most effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweeteued with sugar; then, after about fifteen minutes begin to give about a table6poonful of the same mixture every minute until reliof was obtained. Apply hot applications to tho extremities. Bathe the stomach with the Pain Killer, clear, and rub tht limbs briskly. Os those who had tho C'holora, and took the medicine faithfully in the way stated above, eight out of teu recovered. Truly yours, It. TELFORD. If attacked with tho Diarrhoea, Dysen tery, Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of tho PAIN KILLER. Tungohow, China, August 29, 1866. Messrs. Perry Davis <£• {Sons.—Dear Sirs : —During a long resideuce in China, I have used your invaluable Pain Killer, both in my own family and among the Chinese, and have found it a inoHt. excel lent medicine. In the summer of 1862 and ’63, while residing in Shanghai, 1 found it an almost certniu cure for Cholera, if used in time. Indeed, using it in a great many instances, I do not remember failing in a single case. For three years I have beeu residing in this place, more thou fifty miles from a physician, and have been obliged often to fall upon my own resources in cases of sickness. The Chinese come to us iu great uuinbers for medicine and advice. Though without medical knowledge our selves, tho few simple remedies we can command arc so much in advance even of their physicians, that wc havo almost daily applications We allow them to come, because it brings us in contact with them, and opens a door of usefulness. In diar rhoea, colic, vomiting, cholera, coughs, etc., your PAIN KILLER has been my chief mediciuc. * * * * * Yours, very trulv, T. P. CRAWFORD. Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer I have used the medicine known as PKRItY DAViS’ VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER iu my family, for the last twelve months, and have great pleasure in testify ing in favor of its very valuable properties. I would not on any account be without it. During the existence of the cholera last year I used no medicine of any sort but the Pain Killer, although myself and sev eral members of my family were attacked by it severely, and I am.happy to say that the Pain Killer was equal to every emer gency—-it was both a preventive and a certain cure. I consider I should not be doing my duty to the community did I not say this much. If I were attacked by Ibe cholera to-day the Pain Killer should be the only remedy 1 would use. 1 have thor oughly tested it, and know it can be relied on. F. E. BERG INSEND, Galena, Illinois. Those u. ( ing Pain Killer should strictly observe the following directions: At the commencement of the disease, take a tcaspoulul of Pain Killer in sugar and water, and then bathe freely across the stomach and bowels, with Pain Killer, clear. Should the diarrhoea and cramp continue, repoat the dose every tifteeu minutes. Iu this way the dreadful scourge may he checked, and the patieut relieved in tbo course of a few hours. N. B.—Be sure and got the genuino article; and it is recommended by those who have used the Pain Killer lor the cholera, that in extreme cases tho patient, take two (or more) teuspoonfuls instead of one. Wc ask tho attention of the public to this long tested and unrivalled family med icine. Tho Pain Killer is, by universal consent, allowed to have won for itself a reputation unsurpassed in the hietorj’ of medical preparations. Its instantaneous effect in tbe eradication and extinct on of pain, in all its various forms incidental to the human family, and the unsolicited written and verbal testimony of the masses in its avor, have been, and arc, its own best advertisement. j>9-ly
