On the 1st of July 1849, I was so bad that I could not turn myself in bed, and the pain so severe that I had not slept a wink for six days. At this time mv attending physician prescribed the "Hebrew Pbister," and it acted like a charm ; the pain left me, nnd 1 slept more than half of the night, and in three days I was able to ride out. I consider the "/A* brew Plaster" the best remedy for all sorts of pains now in use. O. W. M'MINN. 7/endersonviPie, N. C., Aug 16, 1850. ? ^ ^ ^ ^ Beware of counterfeits and base imitations !
