GOOD TESTIMONY.
The Lea:11.111e 'Courier thus speaks of Bull's Sarsaparilla:
We have been shown, by Mr. John Bull, proprietor of
that world-renowned preparation, "Bull's Fluid Extract of
Sarsaparilla," an original, genuine, and beautiful letter,
addressed to him by the aecotnplished lady of ono of the
moat eminent old physicians in the West, giving a detailed
aerount of one of the most astonishing emus on record, per.
force d alone by the use of "Bull's Sarsaparilla."
This most excellent and charming holy bad long suffered
from prolepsus uteri, fluor allots, piles, and chronic diseases
of the stomach and digestive organs, and derangement of
the whale system, attended with distressing cutaneous erup
tion, sick beadeehe, and violent ethnics of eranipp. After
exhausting all of her husband's sltill,And applying to many
celebrated medical gentlemen, both at home and abroad,
and also using {{,,rent quantities of "Townsend's Sarimpa
rllla," without the slightest relief, she woe induced to use
"Jhn Ball's Sarsaparilla." And what was the happy
result/ After the use of a few bottles, a perfect and won
derful cure—the lady mitered to perfect health, and to her
usual flow of spirits.
Such letters as }We PtIR we speak of, must afford Mr. Bull
more real gratification, than could the possession of count
less wealth. And whether he aecumula te. wealth or not
by the sale of his truly valuable Medicine, being its author
is glory and honor enough; and ho can ray to the world,
without fear of contradietion, "I have In my poverty re
lieved more Inman suffering, than did Stephen Shunt or
John Jacob Astor with Unit. millions."

For the benefit of sufferers like ma'am' oth

have suffered more or less for twenty years with
the must desperate Rheumatism, and also for 18
years at times with most desperate !Tin in the

it would burst; also for many years I was ter

I can't describe all my sufferings for so long a
time. I could do no business for the last ten
years, nor had I a single good night's sleep for
the last five years. I never could find any relief
worth mentioning, until last November, when I
mot with the Extract of American Oil, and to
my no little surprise I gdt relieved of all in a
short time and to this day. I respectfully in

HUNTINGDON, March 11, 1850.
I do hereby certify to the following facts:—
That I have suffered for five years past with
Pain in my back, spine and kidnies, and never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last November I got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, I used it inward
ly, and to my surprise it removed the complaint
in a short time. From. What I have seen and
heard of its wondrous effects upon others in des
perate cases, I can freely recommend it, and be
lieve it to be worth all the humbugs in the land;
and do believe it will do all for what it is so
highly recommended. C. COUTS.
LEWISTOWN, March 1810.
I never before gave a certificate, but this I
give with o clear conscience for the benefit of
sufferers like myself. I suffered with the Ery.
sipelas or St. Antony's Fire, mixed with Tet
ter, so pronounced by my doctor, for 12 years.
The suffering I endured is beyond description.
At times all my hair came off my head. During
this time Kati no relief for more than a few
days at a time. Last October I got a bottle a
the Extract of American Oil, used it inwardly
and outwardly, and to my great astonishment
and my neighbors, I got clear of it in a short
time, and to this time I have noticed its won
drous effects on other desperate complaints. I
do assure my friends and the public that it is
indeed a wondwfal thing for many Complaints.
I invite all whochoose to visit me inLewistown.

despaired of, I supposed that this state of things wili
