J)r. D. Jayne, Philadelphia: My Dear Sir—Wc are
nowiu great want of your Medical Preparations. Your
CARMINATIVE BALSAM is an invaluable Medicine
in this country in Bowel Complaints, and has been used
. m all our Missions with tho most gratifying pnccess. I
have known it in many cases to act like a charm. Your
SANATIVE PII*LS are-my Sheet Anchor. The best
medicine for my Liver Complaint and pain m the side,
that I have overused: They are in fgreat -demand, ana
wo are entirely out of them. Wc need five hundred
boxes ot them. Bro. Beecher says we could use a
thousand boxes yearly among our people to great ad
vantage. {have used yourTONIC VERMIFUGE as a
Tomo’in.INTERMITTENT:FEVER.;with the most
complete success. I think it was once the means of sa- -
ving my own son. During my travels among the church
es tne past season.l found a whole village suffering un
der a prevailing Influenza* attended: with. Coughs of a
most violent character. 1 often regie lied I had not had
a dozen or two of YOUR EXPECTORANT to admin
ister to them, for I believe from what I liave soen of its
"effects, that it would have been just the thing for those
poor peoylei I presume you have nqt “hitherto had an
idea to what amextent your medicines are used m ail
