READ AND BE CONVINCED. Charles Robinson. Esq., Easton, Md., m a let ter to Dr. Jackson, January 9, 1850, said — “My wife and myself have received more bene fit from your medicine than any other we have ever taken for the Dyspepsia and Diver Disease The Tenth Legion, published at Woodstock, Va , January 10, 1850, said We have uniformly'retrained from recommend* ing to the public any of the various Patent Medi cines of tne day, unless'thoroughly convinced of their value. Among those we consider worthy of notice is the German Bitters, invented by Doctor Hoofland, and prepared by Dr. Jackson, in Phila delphia. One instance in particular, in which the superior virtues of this meaicihfe have been tested, has fallen under our observation. During the last summer, a son of Mr- Abm. Crabill, of this coun ty, was very seriously afflicted with Liver Com plaint, and after trying in vain various remedies, he purchased a bottle of the Bitters, and afier using it, was so much relieved of hts distressing malady, Uiat he procured another bottle, and is re stored eniirely to health. READ FURTHER A FEW FACTS. B rom the Weldon Herald, published ait Weldon, N. C-, January 24. 1850, which said — It is very seldom that we make any allusion to | Patent Medicines, either approving or otherwise, j Unfortunately for the country, and for honest and i conscientious inventors and venders of these med- ! icines, the land is becoming flooded with quack ! preparations, that are made alone for profit and are j fit not even for the dogs. In this state, of things v ’ it is hard to tell which are, and which are not ; worth having. If a person gets an indifferent med- t icine the first time he purchases, he is very apt to condemn the whole of them and buy no rfiore, and inventors must only blame those of their number, [who ignorantly combine plain medicines together ■ tor the purpose of making money,] for the ill sue- i cess which attends .he efforts of the deserving. We believe Dr. C. M. Jackson’s Hoofland’s ! German Bitters to be a most .excellent medicine, i and one that should be highly popular in these : days of Temperance ; for they are altogether PVg. i ctable in their composition, without one drop of ! Alcoholic Spirits in them. This medicine is inno- 1 cent, bnt strengthening in its efforts, and richly • deserving of an unbounded popularity, which, 1 when it becomes known, it will, no doubt, fully enjoy. Judge M. M. Noah said, in his Weekly Messen* : ger, January 6,1850 i Dr.' Hoofland's German Bitters. —Here is a preparation which the leading presses in the Union ! appear to be unanimous in recommending, and the reason is obvious. It is made afier a prescription furnished by one of the most celebrated physicians i of' modern limes-ihe late Dr. Christopher Wil- i helm Hoofland, professor to the University of Je- ’ na. private physician to the King of Prussia, and ! one of the greatest medical writers Germany has ever produced. He was emphatically the enemy of humbug , and therelore a medicine of which he was the inventor and endorser may be confidently relied on- He specially recommended It in Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Vertigo, Acidity of the somach, Constipation, and all complaints arising from a disordered condition of the stomach,- the liver and the intestines. Nine Philadelphia papers express their conviction of its excellence, and several of the editors speak of its effects from ; their own individual experience. Unde.* these cir j cumstance?, we feel warranted, not only in calling the attention of our readers to the present proprie tor’s [Dr. C. M. Jackson's] preparation, but in recommending the article to the afflicted. MORE EVIDENCE. The Philadelphia Saturday Gazette, the best family newspaper published in the United States. The ediior says of DR. HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS: It is seldom that we recommend what are termed Patent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of our readers; and, therefore, when we recom mend Dr* Hooflaird’s German Bitters, we wish it to be distinctly understood that <ve are not speak* ing of the nostrums of the day, that are noised about for a brief period and then forgotten after it has done its guilty race of mischief, but of a med icine long estab shed, universally prized, and which has met the approbation of the faculty itself. Evidence upon evidence has been received (like the foregoing) from all sections of the Union the last three years, andthe strongest testimony in its favor, is, that there is more of it used in the practice of the regular Physicians of Philadelphia than all other nostrums combined, a fact that can easily be established, and fully proving that a scientific prep aration wi'l meet with their quiet approval when presented even in this form. That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it as directed. It acts specifically upon the stomach and liver ; it is preferable to calomel in all billious dis eases —the effect is immediate. They can be ad* ministered to female or infant with safety and reliable benefit, at any lime. BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS. This medicine hos attained that high character which is necessary for all medicines to attain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a spurious article at the risk of the lives of those who are innocently deceived. Look well to the marks of the genuine. They have the written signature ot C. M. Jack son upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the bottle, without which they are spurious .

Mauiuceau —My Dear Sir: ‘ The Married Woman's Private Medical Companion,’ for a which I enclosed one doHar to your address, came safely to band. I would not have troubled you with these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense of gratitude, for myself and wife, to 1 give utterance to our sincere and heartfelt emotions.. “ My wife has been perceptibly sinking for some three years or more, in consequence of her great an -guish and suffering some months before and during confinement; every successive one more and more debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in im minent danger, and which was, on the last occasion, despaired of I supposed that this state of things was inevitable, and resigned myself to meet the worst. At this time {now about two months) I heard yonr book highly spoken - of. as containing some matters reaching my case. On' its receipt and perusal, I can not express to you the relief it afforded my distressed mind and the joy its pages imparted to my-wife, on learning that the greet discovery of M. M. Deso meaux provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to me which I little conceived was possible. No pecu niary consideration can ever repay the obligations I am under to you for having been the means qf im parting to us the matters contained in ‘ The Married Woman’k, Private Medical Companion.' , But for this, ere another year would have passed over-my head, in all huinau probability my wife would have been in her grave, and my children left motherless.’ Extract from, a Letter. Competence and Health. Lancaster, Pa., Oct. 24, 1847. “My Dear Sir: I know you will have the kind ness to bear with me in encroaching upon your time, while I acknowledge (in behalf of myself and wife) > the obligations we feel ourselves under to you in hav ing made known certain matters, contained in your most invaluable ‘Married Woman’s Private Medical Companion.' It has been worth its weight in gold to me. If I express myself rather warmly, you will see that 1 can not do so too warmly; when I inform you of the extent to which I have, through it, been benefited. I will state my situation when I obtained your book through the merest curiosity I-look upon ' it as one of the most fortunate events of my life. 1 had been married some ten years, and was the father of seven children. I was long struggling unceasingly, to the end that I might gain a moderate competency, but the results of my utmost exertions at the end left me about where I was at the beginning of each year; . and that only, with the most stinted economy, suffi i cing with barely the necessaries of life. Finally, this constant effort was beginning to have its effect upon ; my health : I felt less capable to endure its continu ! ance, while I felt the necessity of perseverance. ■ “ This constant, unceasing struggle on nay part was J imperative, in consequence of the prostrated condi ! tion of my wife (with occasional intermission) for six j years, much of the time confined to her bed, and of I course incapable of taking the charge and manage ment of household affairs. Her condition arose from causes of which I was ignorant. Oh! what would . I have given had I the six years to live over again ! s ' What would my wife have given to have been spared i the long days and still longer nights prostrate on a ; bed of sickness! all of which would have been 1 avoided, had I then seen a copy of * The Married Woman's Privjte Medical Companion.”' From, a Physician.
