great oppression at,the chest was experienced,
with excessive collibinative sweats, soreness and
pain in the sides and breast, with extreme languor .
and loss of appetite: In this situation, I travelled
to the New England states by sea, but obtained
no permanent relief Sometime after my return

CASE.
PHILADELPHIA, March 29th, 1829.
Dear Sir—After many but ineirectoal trials to
relieve myself from a most severe and distressing
attack of dyspepsia, I have been completely cured
by the use of, to me, your invaluable Ca tholicon,
and I thitit my duty thus public.ly to state my
1,
case, and )
-order that others may profit thereby.
The first symptomsof the disease were manifest
ed in the spring 0f1a27. Warned at the approach
of this destroyer of all ease, I had recourse to phy
sician after physician, and remedy after remedy,
but received little or no relief. 1 was recommend
ed to retire into the country, whore I so far re
cruited, that I began to think the enemy was dal
lodged. I returned to the city, where in a short
time all my old symptoms returned with double
violence. My stomach became so debilitated with
drugs that' I relinquished the regular system and
entered on a course of Swaim's Panacea. It did
me no good, and I wet:114110i, to any doctor, who
crammed ine with pulverized oyster shells, etc; etc.
My teeth became loose,and some actually fell out•
there- was a constant pain in my joints, particular
ly in damp weather, pains in my right side and
shoulder, etc. I now.suemitted to another course
of medical treatment, until the fall of 11129, when
my physicians stated the.disease to be a satin-us
of the liver. Then it.. was that I determined to try
your Catholicon, a tbw doses of which improved
my appetite, and gave me a feeling_ of ease end
comfort, I cannot readily describe. In twelve days
after using but one bottle, I found myself well—
the few teeth I had left were firmly clasped by the
gums and my appetite and digestion perfectly re
stored. I now enjoy as good health as I ever did,
and I must say it is to your valuable Cutholicoa
that I attribute this happy result.
Respectfully yours,
EZIIA P. WILTBANK.
