flTllIE cenctirrerit testimony of men of inlegritv
and worth is the best evidence we can have
tv. r.nxvvKtvHrv. and stonomv. All uhvsicians
' j
admit that great danger i3 to be apprehended from j
drugging the eye when in an inflamed and unheal
thy state. In the use of this salve this objection
is entirely removed, as no harm can possibly re
sult from its nse: it being in all cases applied to
the external portions of the eye, thereby avoid
ing all the inconvenience, pain and danger,' which
necessarily attend the introduction of any . pungent
article into, the eyer Its activity in subduing in
flarhmationls so great that but few cases require
the use of more than one bottle to effect a perfect
cure. ' One physician remarked to us, after, hav
in? witnessed its effects in several instances, that
it was a uPttifKcr fire killer." Wo might
multiply reasons why ihis salve should be prefert
red above every thing else-in the treatrrent of dis
eases of the eye, but we prefer it should stand on
its own merits, All we ask is that its virtues be
thoroughly tested, and that the directions be strict

GREAT experience and judgment are required
to make a valuable, and at the same time,4 inna
cent purgative. This is possessed only by fewf
The great majority of the remedies advertised
of this class are manufactured by persons who ?
have no idea of the relative or! individual powera
of the drugs they "use. It is this cause, more than
any other, which occasions the inertness and often
injurious effects, produced by advertised remedies.
An J hence the general prejudice which prevails
against them. Now there is a great difference in ;
this respect, wiuVregard to the pills made by Dr.
D, Brandfeth, and consequently tlicir superior
claims upon the public. Each of the articles
composing the .-v
, Biandreth Tills v "
Are prepared in that way which will secure their . .
beneficial effects to the system in the safest and .
easiest manner. For instance, some ingredient3
have to be prepared in the vacuo; that is, the air ia
exhausted in the utensil, cod remains so until a
combination is- effected, whh other ingredients,
which afterwards prevents the air from acting in
uriously upon the medicine. Again, the propor
tion of each ingredient depends upon its multiply
ing power upon other ingredients For the power
of different vegetable purgatives upon each other
is governed by similar laws that govern the power
of figures by multiplication. Nine added to nino I
make eighteen: but nine times 1 nine. ' are cighiy
onei So it is with some vegetable purgativeS4
By adding nine parts of one ingredient, and'nino
parts of another ingredient together, be power ia
increased, not to eighteen, bat to eighty-one. For .
example, either of the articles to produce any
purgative effect, would have to be used to the ex-
tent of eighty-one grains; by combining them
oqly eighteen grains have'to be used. Again, a -nother
ingredient isfound to multiply this power
again,-which in a proportion of two grains. Would
have no effect . upon the animal economy, but
which, added to eighteen rains of a compound of
two parts of nine grains, each of two ingredients
will again multiply the power which they have
gained of eighty-one, to one , hundred and sixty K
two.r So again, the mixture of twenty grains caa
be again multiplied byan addition of two grains
to the power of three hundred and twefily-four.
grains of the original power of the two first "ingre
dients. Here we have twenty-two grains, which!
as a purgative, contain the power equal, to, threa
hundred and twenty-four grain?; of , either cf the
articles alone; nevertheless also so ' powerful after
being thus comjbined, are safe in any quantity
always having a beneficial effect, and in no case
capable of doing injury, of which thoasand bea -ample
