Messrs. P. Davis $ Son—Dear Sir*: ****The Karens have no more confidence in the charms of their ancestors- They desire rational remedies for the sick. By various means, principally through the agency of the Rev. D. L. Drayton, these Karen people have become acquainted with your medicine, and their demand for it is to me very sur prising. <> I now have by me orders for more than fifty bottles, but 1 have not got one bottle; 1 therefore wish you to send me a quantity, and 1 will pay you through the tieasurer of the Missionary Union. I hope weshall be favored with some of it as soon as possible. There is no medicine which stands so high in the estimation of the Karens of these pro vinces as the Pain Killer, and 1 feel willing to gratify them, as 1 entertain a very high'opinion of its worth. D. G. THOMAS. Providence, R. 1., July 7,1851. Messrs. Perry Davis & Son: Gents—Before 1 left Mer gui,both Karens and Burmans had found out the value of your Pain Killer, and 1 could readily have disposed of a Jargo quantity of it among them, it seems particularly efficacious in cholera (porous, bowel complaints, and oth er diseases, to which the natives “of Burmah, from their unwholesome style of living, ate particularly exposed. It is a valuble antidote to the poison of centipedes,scorpions, hornets and the like. I have been twice stung by scorpions and in both cases eased the most excruciating pain, ana en tirely prevented the swelling by applying the Pain Killer. On our voyage homeward from India, the Captain of the ship was taken with vomiting and purging and other symptoms of cholera. 1 gave him a good dose of Pain Killer with the most immediate and happy results. So en tire and speedy was the relief, that he assured me he would never again go a voyage without your excellent medicine, if he possibly could procure it. Respectfully yours, - R.v. ). BENJAMIN, Late Missionary to Burmah. Calcutta, Nov. 4,1853. Messrs. Perry Davis Son: Dear Sirs—Confirming my lespects of the 4ttv all., (duplicates herewith) 1 find it necessary to address you again,as my most sanguine ex pections have been more thau realized. The eali for your valuable medicine is increasing so very rapidly that 1 tear I shall soon be unable to keep pace with it, as 1 have only about one hundred bottles ol the supply per Union on hand, and hope that long ere this you have despatched me another package, ot which, however, I have not yet heard trom you.
