(ienerul Aueuta for the State, Ilrainlretli's VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL FILLS, IT is icnrrally known that my Grandfather was the nritnul inventor of theM remarkable nilla. He was a scientific man, and a medical practitioner of the Old School, lint becoming alarmed al tne mor milt,! tlmt attended the Uleedinit and Jliiienil Prac tice,' he turned his attention lo the sindy of natureund tlie philosophy of disease, as also to the nutnral reme dial atieuu whith he fouud to exist exclusively in the Veiteiable Kingdom. In hie resean-hes and iuresti itaiions, he became fully satislied that the life was in the bl.idi that by whutevor name diseases were dis tiiiiiiinlieil. iiiuiui itv of I he blood was the source ol all a aimpio and truthful doctrine, which, in redticina: all diseases loa unit, necessarily cstahlislied the fact that ull were to be treated ou the same geucrai pnn cinlfs. vix, hv purunii'in. ' Now the grand difficulty consisted in devisiiur a veg etable compound that would invigorate, purify, and cleanse the blood, correct and regulate all the dilRr ent secretions, and by purgatiou diaclmige the whole mass of morbid mailer inuu me oouy, w iinout reuue inu ili imiiinh. Alter thirty veara of close iiiuilica tiou, he considered his object fully accsmplished in the nroducllonol these pills, which huvo now been before the public One Hundred and fourteen Jears, m,H it is now iimal nearly 31 veart siuce Dr. Itran- lirelh s Vegetable Universal Life Preserving Pills were lirst preseLled Ui the American public during which time tbj-ir superior excellence aud virtues have been extensively proclaimed ny papers auu pampiueis, And a rapid yearly lucre ase of the sale of them ef- feel ell. - To know what will save life, to know what will restore beahh, is a knowledge not to he hidden, I therefore, as a inun desiring to do my duty faithfully have dotted down some of nir thirty Ave years' exne rirnre with Brandrelh's Pills, which are an eireclual assisiant of nature, and cause the expulsion of acri monious humors the occasion of every sickness. Let ns admit that rorrnnt humors prevent the tree circula tion of the blood, that Hmndreth's Pills take not these humors, giving health for pain, and strength for weakness. No man is sick save when the principle of corrup tion gets the ascendency; ltrandretb s Pills aid tin Life Principle to reguin ihe empire bv removing tin eorrapt huuon from the lodv. Many a lime I havi seen tins apparently al the last sbb when these Pills were given, and iu a few hours the danger was past, and health's flood tide gave the patient renewed life and vigor. Many are uie ratners, mothers, sons, an daughters, thus saved. These celebrated Tills are composed wholly of me dicinal herbs, and do not onntain any mercury or other mineral, being perfectly harmless to the most tender sues or weakest frame; yet stirs to search out lbs cause of sickness, and restore the health if taken according in the directions. I jet no one imagine the, are loo Weak to bear the effect or these Pills, which put no weakness into the frame, hut draws weakness ont. A few doses will be iret confidence, and then the beauties of purgation will firadoailv become enfolded to onr view, wliieh, en oreed with Hrandreth s Vegetable l"niveisal Pills, il able to rare every disease where the urgent are suoud, mI imiMllv inernue the eremee of human lite.
