There are two things about this herb that appears to me surpris- ing; first that it yrows in our pastures, in some laces quite plentiful, and yet lis value Las never on known until I discovered it in 1846—seeond, that it should cure all kinds of humor. in order to give some idea of the sudden rise and great popularity of the discovery, I wil! state that In April, 1853, 1 peddled it, and sold about 6 bottles per day—in April, 1554, 1 sold over 1,000 bottles per day of it. Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in business twenty and thirty years, say that no- thing In the annals of patent medicines was ever like It. ‘There is a universal praise of it from all quarters. In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors—but since Its introduction as a general family medicine, great and wonderful virtues have found in it that | never suspeeted Seyeral cases of eptieptic flts—a disease which ‘was always considered incurable, have been cured by a few . UO, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all cases of that a’ malady—there are but few who have seen more of it than I have. I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them nie people cured by it. For the various diseases the Liver, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Feverand Ague, Pain in the Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases of the Kid- neys, &c., the discovery lias done mere good than any medicine ever known.
