The following are among many testi monials of its efficacy . Da. R. H. Wobthimotoh Dsa Sir: I take much pleasure In adding my testimony to others in faver cf your remedy for Bowel Affections, &c, having so frequently experienced its beneficial re sults in my own case, as well as in many others to whom I have given it. I carried a bottle of it with me to Baltimore, (and here permit me to say I would as soon think of travailing without money as without this remedy ) and finding many among' rflT. -AVMuaintancee there who were suffering with. yaxloaB forma of Bowel Affections, I gave it freely; f BWT XS 0 1ASTA9CS UIU 11 IH11 lO Htuiu U1C us i pkomft and Pccided relief as it has done her. ( congratulate you, and especially the public, on the discovery of a medicine which is better calcu lated to protect mankind and alleviate suffering thn any other ever brought before the people. L. T. SPIERS. This is to "certify that, some weeks back, I was taken with a violent Diarrhoea, which persisted for eight days. Being some sixty miles from home, I made use of all the remedies'I could think of, but without affording any relief On arriving at home, I was informed that Dr. R. H. Worthington had prepared a remedy for Cholera, ftc, and was advised to use it. I did so, and to my astonish ment, one single dose gnve speed)- and permanent relief, since which rime I have used it frequently in my family ; and, in justice to the Doctor, say I consider it much the mokt valuable medicine 1 have used in an experience of twenty years. F. M. CAPEHART. Murfreesboro." N. C; Oct , l-".4. Dr. Worthinoton Dear Sir: I take great pleasure in recommeuding your Cholera Medicine to the public and more especially since I have had persoual experience and observation of its benefi cial effects. I have tried several remedies put p fr Cholera, &C, but have never found such happy results from any as from your invaluable remedy. I have such unbounded confidence in its efficacy, that I am unwilling and will not leave home without a supply with me; and I regard it as one of the most valuable discoveries of the age. Yours, very truly, W. P. BRAM AN. Windsor, N. C, Sept 19, 1854. Dr. R. H. Worthinqtor Dear Sir. 1 have made some effort, and have succeeded in introdu cing your Medioine to the public, and 1 find it is taking very well indeed ; and the result is, taat I have nearly sold what you sent me. I. there fore, wish you woald send me wmt more as soon you can. l have not the slightest doubt but that this Medicine is the very best reme dy out for the disease for which it is recommend ed. I hope you will soon send me a supply, as l would not like to get entirely out of it. lours, truly, GEORGE W. McGLAUGHON. fFrom the Murfreesboro GAiette.l Missrs. Editors In looking over the last number of the Gazette, I found a communication from our friend. Mr. L. P. Spiers, rcommending Dr. R. H. Worthington s Cholera Mixture to the public, for the cure of diarrhoea, dysentery, and other kindred diseases. Having experience in my own ease, the happy effects of its use, as well as other Raembers of my family, I can safely say that I rerard it aaneriat to anv remedy wa have ever used, in OAoxpatria oftt-raaAT.j-Mraw I womkl, therefore, reoocamand it to every family as an in valuable remedy, and every individual to procure a bottle and keen it by them In these times of cholera. R. R. PARKER. Murfreesboro,' Aug. 30th, 1854. This is to certify that 1 have used Dr. R. H. Worthington's Cholora medicine in my family for the last four or five weeks, in several cases of Bowel Complaint, so common in our vicinity, with invariable tract-ess. One of the cases was that of a negro child, some four or five months old, who wag so emaciated y the effects of the disease, that its life was nearly despaired of, when my wife happened to think that she would, try the Cholera Medicine, and did so with complete success in less than forty-eight hours. I am throughly of opinion that no famrly should be without so tine a medicine Given under my hand, this 3rd day of October, 1854. A. W. DARDEN. MURFRESBORO' N C. Dn R. H. Worthinirton. It affords us pleasure to say that we have used your Cholera Diarrhoea medicine for the last twelve months, and have found it invariably successful ia relieving speedily the cases in which we hare bad occasion to use it.
