A HEMANftEIEE SAVED!
DOWAOIAC, Midi, March 11, 1856.
J. A. RHODES, Esq : Dear Sir—As 1 took
vonr medicine to sell on consignment, "no
cure 110 pay," 1 take pleasure in stating its ef
fects as reported to me hy three brothers who
litre in ibis place, and their testimony is a fair
specimen of all I have received:
IV. S. CONELIN told tne — "1 had taken nine
bottles of Christie's Ague Balsam, and contin
ually run down while using it until my lungs
and liver were Congested to that degree that
blood discharged from my month and bowels,
so that all thought it impossible for roe to live
through another chili. The doctors too did
all they could for nic, but though 1 must die.
Nothing did any good until 1 got Rhodes' Fe
ver and and Ague Cure, which at once reliev
ed me of the distress and nausea at my stom
ach and pain in my head and bowels, and pro
duced a permanent cure in a short time."
11. M. Coxkus says: "J bad been taking me
dicine ol as good a doctor as we have in onr
county, and taken any quantity of quinine
and specifics without any good result, from
25 August to 17th December. Bnt seeing how
nicely it operated on my brother. I pot a bot
tle of RHODES' FEVER AND AGUE CURE,
which effected a permanent cure liv using two
thirds of a bottle."
S. M. Comw was not here, but both the
other brothers say his case was the same as 11.
M's. Isold the medicine to both the same
day, and the cure was as speedy from the same
small quanti y, and i might so specify. Yours
with respect. A. HUNTINGTON.
The above speaks for itself. Good proof as
it is, it is of no better tenor tlian the vast T um
ber of like certificates I have already publish
ed, atd the still greater amount ll:at is contin
ually pouring in to roe.
One tiling more. Last year I had occasion
to Caution the I'tihlic in these words:—
"I notice one firm uha hare taken one of my gen
eral circulars, substituted the name of their nos
trum for my medicine, aud then with brazen impu
| deuce end their pamphlet with the exclamation,
'Let the proprietor of any other medicine say as
much if he dares,' " Ac.
Now I take pleasure in saying that the Cau
tion referred to the safnu "Dr. Christie's Ague
Balsam" that is mentioned in the above cer
tificate.
There are several other industrious people
who are applying to their poisonous trash all
that I publish about mv Fever and Ague Cure,
or Antidote to Malaria, except the certificates
of Cures, and the Certificate of the celebrated
Chemist, Dr. James. R. Chilton of X. Y., in
favor of its perfectly HARMLESS CHARAC
TER, which is attached to every bottle. These
will always serve to distinguish my medicine
from imitations.

To Seth S. Jlance, Baltimore. Mil.
Dear Sir—Having been afflicted f,„- SO me
years past with Falling Fits. 1 saw your adver
tisement, and determined to give your pills a
trial, and I am happy to say that since I com
menced the use of them, I have not had an at
tack. I believe them to lie a first rate article,
for, as I have written to you in a former letter
1 was attacked every two weeks, hut since 1
have been using them I have not had an attack.
Yours, respectfully,
LETTER FROM A DRUGGIST.

A PERFECT CURE OF EPILEPSY.
Pittsburg, Nov ember 22, 1853.
Dear Sir—lt is now ten months since my wife
liad any of those nervous attacks. She thinks
she is cured. She has not had an) symptoms of
the disease for the last nine month*. She took
your Vegetable Extract Pills for about four
months.and discontinued thcru foui mouths
since. Mrs. S. was treated by the best old
sehoolphysicians in the State tor ten years, then
by the best Homeopathic for eighteen months,
without a cure. It is to your Veretabfe Ex
tract Pills, and with stn regard to diet, that,
we ascribe her cure of the most dreadful dis
ease that ovei afflicted the hunianfanilly. I wish
every person afflicten witii Epilepsy had this
medicine, and wonld give it a thorough trial
It may not ctirein alleases. but in this it has
perfet mod wonders.

Millcdgeville, Ga. i
December 17. 1852. J
Dear Sir—l wish to inform you that onrof
my family lias been uffiicted Willi FITS torn
number of year*, and seeing an advertisenieu
in a news paper, concerning your Vegetable Ex
tract Epileptic Pills, 1 came to the conclusion
after trying almost every physician in mv reacht
and all having failed in relieving my child of
the disease, to send for six boxes ot your pills,
which proved an effectual cure lor my daughter,
wfio is now about 18 years of age. I think
there is no other medicine in use equal to them,
and 1 will he forever gratelulto you for the use
of them for my daughter whom it has cured.
Yours, respectfully.
Nervous and Conslituliual Disea

ty, dislike to society, melancholy, religious mo
nomania, heats and Hushes of the face on the
slightest occasion, a desire that existence should
terminate; they will produce a cure in an aston
iishnglv short period of time, and it will alos
remove depression, excitement, a tendency to
blush, restlessness.sleeplessness,incapacity for
study or business, loss of memory, condition,
giddiness. blood to the head, mental debility,
hysteria, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of
