We hsve en our BOokii - of Itioord the:

age, residence, date, disease and
prescription of every case treated by us
during the last twenty years. In these
books are Contained the names of over
sixty thouscrnd persons, and more than
two hat:tired thousand prescriptions. In
this vast number of cases every kind
and.fariety of diseases have fallen under
our Observatien; and every form of treat
' went has been fully tested.
In COSst imPTIOx and "Lung Diseases"
we have had ample opportunity to test
not only every kind of treatment, but
every kind of medicine.
We know there are many cases of
disease that so nearly resemble consum e
Lion, but which is hot s that without
kes
a
very careful diagnoeis eriOUB mista
might be made, which would lead to
very prejudicial results in the treat
ment. It is the duty of every physician
to ascertain as nearly as possible the pre
cise nature of every malady before pre
scribing. "No more certain sign is offer
ed in disease than is found in the urin
ary secretion," says Simon. And in this
disease, we are especially favored with
indications in the urine whichAnable us
to determine not only the facts relative to
the true nature thereof, but to measure
tolerably correctly the extent of the same
We have thus detected and date,-
Aninadthe =Wet of hundreds of Oluses of
Cansuntpticrn, many of which, being
in
cipent only, , have been cured by us in a '
very short time. And whilst we would

cure; in last j ust f this dread
ful malady, we would say, that we
have cured many cases that so nearly re
sembled Consumption, that it was im
possible to determine the fact -by any
other means than by • examination of the
urinary secretion.
Among these we mightmention, Liver
Complaint, Dyspepsia, Heart Disease,
Female Weakness, dm., dte-
These diseases onions much resemble
Consumption. in many particulars. They
may come on with cough and expectora
tion of bloo d and mucus, pain in the
breast and aide, heats and chins, follow..
ed by weakness, night sweats, ite. l 'These
symptoms are taken for Canslimption ,
ase
and the patient is informed that the c
is a "hopeless one," when perhaps it
was yet as curable as nine-tenths of our
most cowmen diseases, and when some
prompt and efficacious remedy adm
tered for the real disease would dispel it
in a very short time.
We have cured many cases of this kind,
even after they had been abandoned tia
hopelessly consumpted, by their rela
tives as well as - the physician. Whilst
there is rife there is hope in such eases.

It is said thaproptietors of the
celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS rent
no less than nine pews from the differ
ent denominations In ?Sew York city fo
oc-
r
all those of their employes who will
cuy them regularly, free of. charge.
Th p is is certainly praiseworthy, and it is
to be hoped that others wbo employ a
large number of people will follow tbe
examPte. The above fact, accompanied
with the lief that a firm who would
look so c b l e osely after the monde and
welihre of their employes, would not
undertake to impose upon the public,.
has induced us to give, the PLASTATIOIT
BITTERS a trial, and aving found them
