JacgsoH, Philadelphia? Dear Sir: I have been a subject of Dyspepsia, in its worst form, for the la^t Ave year*. Such was my coi dition fo* .welve months that the physicians and all who aaw me said I must die. While in thl# eoiKiaion^ I was carried to the watering placet In Virginia, Tennes see and North Carolina, but wa< not benefited by any writer to which I was taken. Whil* on my way home, I stopped a week at Rutherford ton, a sm<V 1 village in North Carolina, to try the effect of some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last of the week, I went into a drug store tor' dome medicine for my child and myaeif- There were several of the village physicians in the store, and one of them seemed to take some interest in my ea*e and, afler asking me some questions, said be h id been a dyspeptic, and had been greatly bene fitted by the use of " Dr. Hoofland's German Bit ters," prepared by jru, and he insisted that I would try the Ritura lie also called the next day at n.y room, and in^ted so much that I would try them that 1 asked him to get me one bottle. He did it, ami I commenced taking it as directed, and f do say 1 was more benefitted 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 dyspep tic,) aud i fave him nearly all the Biuera 1 had leit, which effected much good in bis case. He has often ?"?stlled on me for more of the same k nd of medi cine, saying he was morn benefitted by it than any other he bad taken, but I have not been able to get any more for him or myself si:.c~, there tore, please ship me a doxen or more as soon aspoe cble.
