MEDICINES
Ajbc .composed of Herbs, which exert a spec.fie ac- i
tioa upaa the heart, give an impulse of strength to :
theerteria system ; the blood is quickened and equal- j
ixed in us circulation through att the vessels whether
oCUte skin, or parts situated internal y, or extrerai- |
ties ; and as all the secretions ofthe body are drawn j
from the blood, there is a consequent increase of
every secretion and a quickened action of the absor
bent aad aifcalent, or discharging vessels. Any
mefbid.aetiea which may have taken place is correc
ted, att obstructions are removed, the blood is puri
fi&f, artd the body resumes a healthy state.
Theee medicines after much anxioustoil and re
search, hkruig been brought by the Proprietor to the
present state of perfection, supersede the use of the
innumerable other medicines; and are so well adopt
er :o the frame, that the use of th^ro, by maifttain
r^ffbe-baily in the due performance of its functions
i nd preserving the vital stream in a pure and health y
>*te causes it to last many years longer than it
fwme would, and the mind to become so cjm
?3teJ and tranquil, that Qld eg* i chen it arrives will
appear a blessing and not (as too manv who have ne
glected their constitutions, or had them iftjured by
medicines, administered by ignorance) a source of
misery and abhorrence .
They are bo compounded, that by strengthening
and equalising the action of the heart, liver, ^nd
other viscera, they expel the bad, acrid or morbid
matter, which renders the blood impure, out of the
circulation, through the excretory ducts into the
! passage ofcthe bowels, so that by the brisk or slight
! evacuations, which may be regulated by the doses
i always remembering that while the evacuation* from
the bowels are kept up, the excretions from .all the
other vessels ofthe body wfll also be going on jn the
same proportioa by wiiich means the blooj invaria

Wasuington, July 3d, 1838.
Sir ? Since I have been in this city, I have used
some of your Dyspeptic medicine with infinite ben
efit and {satisfaction, and believe it to be a most val
uable remedy. One of my constituents Dr. A. Cap
den, of Campbell eounty, Tennessee, wrote lo me
to send him some which I did and he has employed
it very successfully in his practice, and says it is in
valuable. Mr. Johnson your agent at this place,
thinks you would probably like an agent in Tennes
sea. If so, I would recommend Dr. A. Carden as a
proper person to officiate for the sale of your cele-1
bnjied medicine. Should you commission him he is '
willing to act for you. You can send the medicine
by water to the care of Robert King & Sons, Knox
ville county, Tennessee, or by land to Graham &
Houston, TTazevvell, East Tenn I have no doobt but
if you had agents in several countie* ill East Ten
nessee, a great deal of your medicine would be sold.
1 am going to take some of it home with me for my
own use, and that of my friends, and should like to
hear from you whether you would like an agent at
Bluntville, SuDivnn county, East Tenn. I can get
some of the merchants to act for you as I live near
there.

Mr. Septemius Kendall, of the to^n of Westerloo,
county of Albany, was far about 27 years troubled
with a nervous and bHtious affection, which for 7
years rendered him unable to attend to his business
and during the last tfcree years of his illness was con
fined to the hause. His syraptons were dizziness,
pain in the head, and side palpitation of the heart,
want of appetite, &c. After expending during bis
confinement, nearly three hundred dollars without
obtaining any permanent relief, he by accident no
ticed an advertisement of Or. Wm. Evans' Camomile
and Aperient Pills, and was consequently induced
to make a trial of tbera After using them about a
fortnight, he was able to walk out ; in four months he
could attend to business, and considered his disease
entirely removed. The above information was giv

can, therefore be no deception
