Our 1 readers may remember We have on several occasions spoken in very eulogistic terms of a preparation which Dr. Seth 3. llancx, of IOS Baltimore street, Ud„ has discovered for the cure of Epileptic Fits.-, Now, in doing so, we have been actuated by tbp very best motives, viz:— tiio alleviation of human'suffering.! From circumstances which have lately come to our knowledge, wo fear there is a certain class of persons .who are not disposed to try this remedy in a common sense manner. We allude to the feet of selecting a particular case in a town where perhaps there are six or eigiil cases, and frying it one case. Now, pei imps the case selected might be the only one of tlip whole number that It would nut curt. This is neither doing them selves norths medicine justice. If a dozen persons were stricken down with cholera in one town or neighbor hood, would they all Send for a physician, or wonld only one employ him, and wait nod see if lie cured the first pa tient ? That plan of procedure would be most absurd. So in the case of Ur. Uanco’s remedy', every one who has Fits should try it fur a reasonable length of time. It-will not cure in a day or week; nothing worth doing can lie accom. plished at once. What is eiajly done is as easily-undone.— The growth of time .8 enduring. • From the moat respecta ble testimony we have examined, we leal assured that by a proper perseverance in this remedy, nine cases of Epilej»sr oat of ten may be cured. The Fills are sent by mail free of postage to any pari of the; world. Price—one buz, $3; two, $5; twelve, $24. You will find the address as above. A FAMILY NECESSITY. The following statement speaks for itself:— (Extract.) — “ In lifting the kettle from the Ore it-eaaght and scalded my hands and person {evsrely—one hand almost to a crisp.
