THEIK EFFECTS.
A Vegetable and Universal Medicine, proved by
experience of thousands to be, when properly perse
vered with, a certain cure in every form of the- Only
One Disease, all having the same origin, and invari
ably arise from the UNIVERSAL ROOT of all
disease, namely, IMPURITY or IMPERFECT
circulation of the BLOOD.
In a period of little rn re than three years in the
United States, they have restored to a state of he alth
and enjoyment over ONE HUNDREt) THUUS
AND persons, who were given over as incurable by
Physicians of the first rank and standing, and in ma
ny cases where every other remedy had been resort
ed to in vain.
In all cases of Pain or Weaknes3. whether it be
chronic or recent, whether it be deafness or pain in the
side, whether it arise from constitutional or some im
mediate caoit, whether it be from internal or external
injury, it will be cured by persevering m the use of
these Pills.
The great principle of ‘ PURGING’ is beginning
to be appreciated. It is found much more convenient
to take an occasional dose of half a dozen Pills, and
be always well, than to send for a Doctor and be bled,
blistered and salivated—with the certainty that if you
arc not ki led, you will be sure to have months of mis
erable weakness, and the only one who is benefitted is
your Doctor. Look at the difference between the ap
pearance of those two persons—one has been treated
by your regular practitioner—see bow pale and debil
itated he is ; see how the shadow of death throws his
soli'ary glance from emaciated his countenance;seehovv
lie trembles in every limb • his eyes sunk ; his teeth
destroyed; his constitution, perhaps, irrecoverably
gone—yet, just hear how he arrogates to himself cred
it. He says, 1 most inveterate case oflivcr complaint’
—• nothing but the most energetic remedies saved
him.’ Energetic measures ! i. e. Mercury and Bleed
ing ruined his constitution, better say. So to save
life you must half poison with that comforter of the
tae'h and gums—MEßCUßY—and positively make
a man niisfrAble the sad remainder of his existence ;
this is called curing. Shocking fo,ly.
Let us now loo< at your ‘ purged’ man—the man
who lias taken Bramlreth’s Pills for Liver Complaint
—he has the firm, elastic tread of conscious strength,
hi- countenance is clear and serene, Lis eye is full and
sparkling with the feeling of new life and animation ;
je has been confined a few days to his bed, but he
used nothing but the true Brandreth’s Pills,
and soon rose without any injury being sustained by
his consiitution. Instead of being for months in a
weak state, he will be stronger afier he has entirely
recovered from the attack; because his blood and
fluids have become purified, and having purged away
die old and impure fluids, the solids are thereby reno
vated, and he is not borne down by useless particles,
but has renewed bis life and body both.
The principle of purging with Brandreth’s Pills re
moves nothing but the useless and decayed [.articles
from the body—the morbid and corrupt humors of the
blood; those humors which cause disease—they im
pede the functions of the liver when they settle upon
the muscles, produce rheumatism ; or, upon tlife nerves,
oroduce gout ; or upoh Ihe lungs, produce Consuinp
; ion ; or, upon the intestines, costiveness, or, upon
die lining of the blood vessels, apoplexy and paralysis,
and all the train of disorders so melancholy to the
sufferer and all who behold them.
Yes, purging these humors from the body is the
true cure for all these Complaints, and every other
form of disease ; this is no mere assertion, it is a
! demonstrable truth, and each day i’ is extending it
self ; ‘ar and wide it is becoming known, and more
and More appro’ iated.
The cure* bv purging may more depend upori the
laws which pruducb sweetness or purity than indy be
generally imagined. Whatever tends to stagnate will
urodiice sickness, b cause it tends to putrefaction ;
hi refore the necessity of constant exbreise is seen.
When constant exercise cannot lie used FilO.Vl
\\'Y CAUSE, the occasional me of Opening
Medicine is ABSOLUTELY required. Thus the
conduits of the Blood, the fountain of life, are
kept free from those impurities which would prevent
ns stcadv current ministering health. Thus, morbid
humors arc prevented from becoming mixed with it.
It is nature which is thus assisted through the means
and outhh which she has provided for herself.
