TESTIMONY FROM NORTH CAROLINA. Certificate of Dr. W. Smith, of Pine Hill, Rich- mond County, N.C. Pins Hitt, March 4, 1854. Dr. C.M. Jactson, Philadelphia—Dear Sir: I have’ been a subject of Dyspepsia, in its worst form, for the last five years: Sueh was my condi- tion for twelve months that the physicians and all who saw me said I must die. hile in,this con- dition I was carried to the watering places in Vir- ginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, but was not benefitted by any water to which I was taken. While on my way home | stopped a week at Ruth- erfordton, a small village in North Carolina, to t e effect of some Chalyheate water in that . About the last of the week I went intoa ane store to get some medicine for my child and myself. There were several of the vil physi- cians in the store, and one of them seemed to take some interest in my case, and, after asking me some questions, said he had been a oie tes and had been greatly benefitted by the use of HOOF- LAND’S GERMAN BITTERS, prepared by ‘ou, and he insisted that | would try the Bitters. e also called the next day at my room, and in- sisted so much that I would try them that I asked him to get me one bottle. He did it, and I com- menced taking it as directed, and I was more ben- efitted by it than all the water and medicine I had ever taken. After reaching home one of my neighbors came to me for a prescription and medicine, (he a dys- ptic,) and I gave him nearly all the Bitters I fea left, which effected much good in his case. He has often called on me for more of the same kind of medicine, saying he was more benetitted by it than any other he had taken, but I have not been able to get any more for him or myself since ; will you, therefore, please ship me a dozen or more @s soon as ible. Respectfully, yours, W. SMITH. D.R. HOOKER, Roger’s Store, Wake Co., N.

Jackson—Dear Sir: Allow me to ex- press to you my sincere thanks for your discovery of a medicine which, to say the least of it, has cf- fected a cure that all other medicines, that I have taken, have pple failedtodo. HOOPFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS have cured me of the most stubborn and ravated case of the PiLEs that, perhaps, ever fell to the lot of man. My case is not a stranger in this community, as I am well known in this and the surrounding counties, and can truly say that ay eee has astounded all my friends and relatfons, as I had tric everything recommended, and nothing did me any good un- til I was prevailed upon to try the Bitters.
