He bad long seen and felvthe want of some reme dy which would-strike at the root of disease, and so prevent much of the suffering which • the human aridly was then compelled to endure. The great .question was-presented to-his mind every day in vivid colorS' as he-moved among the sick and dying, and observed' tho inefficiency of nearly• all the remedies then in use. Thus he was lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of study and labor, he presented to his fellow-man the Wonderful Zingari Bitters. The effect of this prep aiittion in the- prevention and cure or diSease, was so marvellous and astonishing,: that the , most flat tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon him who discovered it. His IMITIeWII.3 placed upon the 11°11 of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Dr, Cheopsus; the Public Rene factor—was_presented to him by the Viceroy.

Jacob - L. Baker,' Big., of Lancaster member. f the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. Mr. Baker had a great deal of experience in the treatment of Cholera is of, druggist of sixteen years standing,was Hospital Steward in the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, for three years,. and is withal a gentleman -of undoubted integrity and one in whose statement the Most •implicit confidence can be placed : .Lancaster, November 3d, 1865. Dr, Mishler—Dear Sir.—Knowing that the Cholera.with its dreadful ravages is now upon our land, and knowing that'no medi cine now in, cur. country . possesses such a caloricinfluence "which is the vital reme dy for ,all diseases of this kind;" • as the Bitters yon ;now making I request you to' prepare such a quantity of your, bitter as would ; snit all demands, as I assure you they will be an invaluable .remedy,, - aad will be hailed as a blessing by all who will use it., , 670,198,37 - Being thus urged, and having noticed the Bitters were constantly curing ,noticed most violent cases of Diarrhcea, Cholera Morbus D and kindred complaints, r. Mishler at last ofiered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result hits exceeded his most sanguine expectations and fully justifies all that Mr. Baker says in his note. It certainly proves that Mr. Baker's practical knowledge of thedioine far exceeds that of most doctors who too often dose their patients with de leterious drugs on some absurd theory.—. For the purpose of, showing that Mishler's Herb Bitters will cure Cholera we give below a few facts. AU intelligent persons who have investi gated the origin of cholera, agree that it is caused by poison introduced and generated, into the system by impure water, damp ness, filth and over-crowded rooms With deficient ventilation. This is proved by the fact that cholera always rages worse on board of ships where all of the above causes are found more or less combined. To cure cholera, and also to prevent it,it is necessary to neutralize 'this position, and that Mishler's Bitters will do this is proven by the following : The steamship Virginia, arrived at the Port of New York: about , the middle of April with cholera a board a number of the passengers having died during the voyage With this complaint. Among the passen gers were a family named Schmith, from Baden ' Germany. This family was at tackedwith cholera. ' Fortunately for them they had friends living in this city I ,an caster. Pa.,) who knew the virtues of Mish ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle and sent it to the Schmid' family. When this package arrived at Quarantine,the doctors examined it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed in a more secure manner: it safely reached the Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the Vir ginia, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were both laboring under choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmith, wife of the former was very bad, not expected to re cover, and a son had died of the dread com plaint and had been buried theday previ ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish- ler's Bitters, sent forth like an Angel of Mercy found the poor Schmith family.— Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave it to his wife and brother both of whom it at once relieved. They used the entire contents of the bottle and all three were so much relieved that the physicians permitted them to leave the Virginia,after being confined at quarantine aboard that scourge ship forty-two says.— The Schmiths'proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster and at an early opportunity called on Dr:Mishler to express their grati tude for the timely relief they had sound -in his Bitters. MI. Henry Schmith stated that all the compounds the doctors had given him did no good, but that one glass of. Mishler's Bitters made him feel like a new man, warming his whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to pet-ropire freely.,; His statement was substantially was subolantially as given above. au he further said that if the doc tors had not kept the first bottle from reaching him, his son would yet hrve been living. Mrs. Schmith was still weak from the effect of cholera, but the continued use of the Bitters were most surely restoring her accustomed vigor. It is not to be expected that regular M. Ps. will admit that any .remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or any other complaint, but candor compels Dr. D. H. Bissell of the Cholera Hospital ship ". Falcon" to admit that he believes Mishler's , Bitters to be a " very good Tonic." In reply as to a case of Bit ters that was sent to him by a well known gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as fol lows : $2,000,000 OD 3,596,922 00 130,335 13 Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New York,J une ith .1860. George S. Rowhotham ; Esq.—'Dear Sir : Yotirs of the 23d, inst. is to hand. In re ply, I beg leave to say; that I received.the case of Bitters you sent me for trial &e., that I gave them to the convaleScents in Hospital. I believe them to be a very good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all eases requiring Tonic remedies. D. H. BISSELL, Physician, Hospital Ship "Falcon." • This letter from Dr. Bissell,just after the reception• of the Bitters, and before' he had time and opportunity to .thoroughly test their wonderful medicinal properties is considered an important endorsement, as that gentleman to-day occupies the most important position of any physician in America. The passengers and crews , o emigrant and merchant, vessels that arrive in the Port of New York front foreign coun tries,are subject to his inspection and con trol, and the great experience he has had in the management of that dreadful dis ease, Cholera, gives an endorsement -by him an unusual importance. This letter together with the statement of the Schmith family—who while in the Steamer Vir ginia, were wader Dr. • Bissell's control, Shows what the Bitters have done and can do. Another case of Cholera cured by Mish ler,s Berb Bitters is that of Mr. Pearsol of York county, who,after suffering severely from all the symptons of Cholera, , finally became collapsed and while in this state, (the doctors stating that he twet beyond re lief) a friend administered freely,Mishler's Bitters. The effect was instantaneous ; heat was generated in the body, perspira tion was induced and after using one bat tle Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored. Mishler's Bitters cures Cholera by coun teracting the poison which is the cause of the disease. Poison in the system,whether generated by bad air, filth. ttc., as in Cholera, or introduced by the ,bite of a N ; enoinous snake or- mad dog will be ex pelled and all bad synspions allayed by. die use of Michler's Herb Bitters. The above proves this to be the fact in Cholera and the certificate of Mr.Rhinehart proves that :Mishler's Billers will cure the bite of a poisonous snake: , _ Lancaster, July 4th, 1865:, . Mr. B. Mishler—Sir:—About eight week's since-I was - bitten in the left hand by. a snake, but at the time did -not - know of what species it was. Iminediately after the bite my hand swelled to a very large size, and the poison appeared to , be work ing up my arm.,l. suffered _great, Pain in my,hand and ara ; I had to quit work and was afraid I would. be compelled to have m yhand amputated. Leanne to you, ;and by your advice washed:any hand and 'arm with your Herb Bitters at the same time taking In eleven days I was 'able to go to work. again. The poison Was all, drawn out and Mishler!s 'Herb -Bitters was the only medicine or application that I made use of.'. Mr: Christian Burns, a near neighbor of mine, went out a day' or two after to the place where • I vas bitten, and killed what I, belieVe -was the .sarrie snake that bit me as he caught within five yards of the spot, where' I was' bitten,; It proved to'be whriS"called a copper snake; at any rate, whether it, was the same one that.bitarie or-not--one-thing is certain— that your Bitters cured the' bite of a snake in' m y cage' for Whichl shall ever be thank fill,"as I believe it was the means of saving my Hand.• ••'" " ' .'" • • , " . • . .‘ I '1161.1. be pled personlly, satisfy. any,dne of.the truth'of the above. .T.A.008,R Low Street; LaiacastOi:.
