 This little book has a twofold mission in the 
 woiJd, — the good of humanity, and the earning of 
 a livelihood for its author. 
 
 When we consider the gigantic strides of genius 
 during the last score of years, notwithstanding 
 the nonconformity to the laws of nature and of 
 health by mankind, "the consequent'^ logically 
 suggests itself, viz., what might not have been 
 accomplished by intellects unimpaired by the 
 baneful habits of profligacy during the same 
 period ? 
 
 M. Ponchet says, "In man the intellect, the 
 real sceptre of the universe, predominates over 
 
 
 i 
 
the apparent imperfection of matter; through it 
 he alone appi*oaehes the chosen creatures who 
 shine near the throne of the Eternal, and form a 
 bond of union between heaven and earth. If, in 
 his structure, he belongs to our sphere, he seems 
 already to elevate himself toward the supreme 
 essence by the splendor of his genius.'* 
 
 And, as this genius is far from being fully de- 
 veloped, let us hope to accomplish by good ad- 
 vice, and a few facts (gleaned from a lifetime of 
 study and observation), some advantages tending 
 towards the emancipation of man from the phys- 
 ical sins which destroy both body and intellect, 
 and which alienate him from the Eternal. 
 
 '* As he came forth from his mother's womIl>» 
 naked shall he return to go as he came.'* 
 
 To your care is committed a frail little body to 
 nurture and strengthen, a latent intellect to guide 
 
 
mgh it 
 3s who 
 form a 
 If, in 
 seems 
 ipreme 
 
 illy de- 
 >od ad- 
 -ime of 
 ending 
 e phys- 
 tellect, 
 
 body to 
 ;o guide 
 
 in its development,^ an immortal soul whose life- 
 song shall be " ExceL^ior,''- onward and upward, in 
 returning to go to God, innocent as it came. 
 
 The mother who suckles her infant should have 
 a healthy disposition of mind and body. Much 
 depends upon her digestion, for this influences 
 her mind; (moderate exercise, healthful recrea- 
 tion, and nourishing food are the desiderata.) 
 Fellows' Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites is 
 a great boon to her, — creating an appetite, assist- 
 ing in the assimilation of the extra amount of 
 nourishment which the dependent life demands ; 
 and, by thus strengthening the body, it enables the 
 mind to bear cheerfully the many little every-day 
 cares of a woman's life. An overworked, " played- 
 out," nervous nurse is min-ored in a fretful, peev- 
 ish baby. 
 
 Again: should the mother be stronsj and well, 
 and the infant still be weakly, its lungs delicate, 
 prone to congestion or bronchitis. Fellows' Hypo- 
 phosphites administered in small doses, or with 
 cod-liver oil, as per directions accompanying each 
 bottle, secures the happiest results, entirely sub- 
 duing all irritation of chest and lungs*, and caus- 
 ing the child to speedily increase in healthy flesh 
 and muscle. This Hypophosphites, by increasing 
 the vital force, will strengthen the brain, — the 
 dawning intellect, — which is constantly worked 
 at "high pressure" by its natural inquisitiveness. 
 
 The training of a child cannot begin too early, 
 whether it be directed to the formation of its dis- 
 position, its integrity, its habits of life, or laying 
 the foundation for a good healthy individual. Re- 
 ferring to the latter, we would call special atten- 
 tion to the fact, that when the constitution is 
 
 ill

 tender, dentition difficult; \dien there exists a 
 tendency to emaciation : want of appetite, symp- 
 toms of worms, or a lack of vivacity, lays siege to 
 the frail little body, — Fellows* Hypophosphites 
 will most surely restore its full vigor. Good food 
 should follow the beneficial influences of the 
 Hypo, and should be improved as the appetite 
 and digestion return. 
 
 The most forlorn,emaciated child may be fitted 
 to become a strong and vigorous adult by the use 
 of this preparation. 
 
 ** As the twigr is bent so the tree will incline*" 
 
 The character formed between the ages of 
 twelve and twenty being usually lasting, it be^ 
 hoves parents and guardians to look well after the 
 youth intrusted to their care. It is the period 
 when vicious and solitary habits fasten ; when the 
 " wild oats " are sown, to claim repentance during

 ter the 
 period 
 en the 
 luring 
 
 the next twenty years, and whose blighted harvest 
 is gathered after a disappointed life. Speaking of 
 the American youth, Oliver Wendell Holmes sa/s, 
 **Such a set of black-coated, stilf-jointed, soft- 
 muscled, paste-coraplexioned youth as we can 
 boast in our Atlantic cities, never before sprang 
 from Anglo-Saxon lineage.'^ Again : " Any thing 
 is better than the white-blooded generation to 
 which we all tend.'* 
 
 Then, make companions of your children ; teach 
 them good habits by example ; allow ample oppor- 
 tunity for out-door sports and exercise,* sympa- 
 thize with them in their disappointments and 
 pleasures ; warn them of the traps and snares of 
 life ; feed liberally with beef and other good, 
 wholesome, easily digested food ; prevent the use 
 of tobacco and stimulants ; and do not cram with 
 education too much at a time. If your aim is to 
 produce well-conducted citizens, able to make 
 their way in the world, this is impossible unless 
 they be healthy. 
 
 The powers of the mind should not be exerted 
 too early. The disposition to early learning and 
 thinking, developing premature ripeness, develops 
 also premature dissolution, — moral, intellectual, 
 and physical. The culture of youth is second to 
 none in importance. It is well known that the 
 expenditure of brain or nervous power is at the 
 expense of physical strength, which, in a child, 
 should be tlie first consideration. 
 
 Many cases have come under the writer's notice 
 where children, pining from this cause, have been 
 promptly restored by cessation from study, and the 
 use of Fellows' Hypophosphites. This Sirup ex- 
 erts a peculiarly happy effect in such cases.

 " WlMMo loYetli Instruction loveth knowledge." 
 
 At no period of life is watchful care over the 
 functions of the brain more requisite than during 
 the acqiiisition of knowledge by the youth ; plod- 
 ding, persevering study requires a store of vigor- 
 ous nervous force, or the child may sink under

 " Many of us pray to be delivered from sudden 
 death; but do we not wony ourselves into it? 
 and, if we do, can we not help It? for is not the 
 average so-called sudden death the result of neg- 
 lect? and is that really sudden death (against 
 -which the Episcopal Church prays) from which 
 Nature protects us by warnings and signs, and 
 against which science provides a remedy, to be 
 both alike unheeded, — is it not rather self-murder t 
 
 ** Men do not really die of heart-disease as often 
 as is supposed, but of apoplexy, or congestion of

 Horace Greeley, and probably Thackeray.'' — Lon- 
 don limes. We may also, with every Nova Sco-

 the lamented Joseph Howe. 
 
 As premature dissolution is induced by brain 
 worry, through its depressing influence upon the 
 general nervous health, by eating the brain faster 
 than the waste is repaired, and as the means of 
 sustaining and increasing nervous strength is no 
 longer impossible, he who suffers the debilitating 
 influence of mental anguish or extreme mental 
 fatigue must resort to Fellows' s Hypophosphites, 
 as that will conduct him safely over the rapids of 
 despair, and create in him 'the strength to grapple 
 with every difficulty in the present, and reap an 
 aftermath of glory m a hale and hearty old age.

 have been restored to strength by Fellows' Hypo- 
 phosphites ; that consumption, hysteria, hypoclion- 
 dria, dyspepsia, and otlier diseases brouglit on by 
 nervous debility, have been and are readily cured 
 by it, — we cannot but conclude that the subtle 
 power is really ponderable matter, from the fact 
 that ingredients supplied render it support and 
 give it vitality.. 
 
 This Hypophosphites is the only preparation 
 known which will induce power of concentration 
 of thought, or which will restore strength to the 
 tired brain for a considerable time. 
 
 From numerous cases of Dyspepsia and ConstU 
 pation cured by the use of this Sirup, after every 
 other remedy had been tried, its efficacy in re- 
 storing the functions vi digestion and evacuation 
 is manifest. 
 
 As the majority increase in weight while using 
 
12 
 
 the 3irup, no doubts remain of its powerful ac- 
 tion on the organs of nutrition. 
 
 From microscopical observation of the blood of 
 invalids, taken from time to time while Using the 
 Sirup, positive proof has been obtained of the 
 steady removal of dead blood particles, and 
 the multiplication of vitalized discs, so necessary 
 for the construction of healthy muscle. Fellows' 
 Hypophosphites supplies the ingredients for sound 
 blood, and imparts the elements which give it 
 vitality. ~ 
 
 Interrupted and feeble action of the heart being 
 superseded by a steady, firm, and regular beat of 
 that organ, demonstrated in numerous cases, 
 proves a substantial tonic effect upon the muscles 
 of the heart.

 L taught 
 that its 
 
 13 
 
 insidious inroads are sure, as they are silent, 
 and flattering to the hopes of the patient. For 
 his gratification, and to relieve his anxiety, the 
 author makes the positive, earnest assertion that 
 Consumption is not only curable, but, up to a cer- 
 tain point, is as easily controlled as most organic 
 diseases. The statement of his own case, reported 
 in another page, is in every respect substantial- 
 ly correct; and, as he desires to direct his expe- 
 rience for the good of all, he would fain hope that 
 his life pleasures should not be marred by the 
 remembrance of having deceived the invalid in a 
 single instance. 
 
 The inventor is satisfied that the only rational 
 mode of treating Consumption Ues in restoring 
 the functions of digestion and nutrition, institut- 
 inp- the regular and correct action of the heart, and 
 effecting the capability of fully inflating the lungs : 
 in short, in toning and building up the nemms 
 system, for upon nervous strength all the organs 
 depend for healthy action. 
 
 From the gratifying assurance of the rare vital- 
 izing and health-renewing properties of his prepa- 
 ration of hypophospliites under a variety of cir- 
 cumstances, lie is equally satisfied tliat these 
 effects are secured by its use, and that its action 
 is peculiar to his preparation. 
 
 Tubercular Consumption of the lungs is that 
 form of the disease most common and most fatal, 
 and, until recently, considered incurable, Tubei^ 
 cle, from which the name is derived, is a morbid 
 product deposited from diseased blood in various 
 narts of thft bodv : and in proportion to the impur- 
 fty of that fluid^ and the length of tir^, jt remains 
 so, will tubercular diathesis continue.

 Naturally palo or anaBmic persons are those who 
 are predisposed to consumption or other tuber- 
 culous diseases, from the fact that a portion of 
 their sanguineous circulation (large or small) is 
 really dead blood particles, composed simply of 
 albumen and phosphate of lime, which, for want 
 of vitality, are held in the small tubes and tissues 
 of the body, and there build upon one another so 
 long as debility remains, forming a mass of a more 
 or less irritable character. The inventor has good 
 reason for believing that each healthy blood cor- 
 puscle has a distinct nervous apparatus, that bodily 
 decay is the gradual reduction of vitality in these 
 corpuscles ; and, as this degeneration progresses, 
 the patient must grow vapid, wither, and perish. 
 
 When this deposit occurs in the lungs, the pa- 
 tient is affected very seriously, and he cannot 
 hope for recovery without persistently carrying 
 out certain rules. The tissues and cells secreting 
 the deposit are frequently out of reach of the 
 larger bronchial tubes, and it cannot be coughed 
 up unless suppuration begins ; so the only possi- 
 ble means of cure lies in checking its further 
 formation, absorbing that already formed, and in 
 keeping up the general health. 
 
 These desiderata are surely accomplished by 
 using Fellows' Hypophosphites, and properly 
 attending to daily healthy habits. 
 
 From easy expectoration, increased respiratory 
 power of the lungs, and the subsidence of irrita« 
 tion, manifest from cessation of cough and enjoy- 
 ment of rest, on using Fellows' Hypophosphites, 
 it is clear that the formation of tuberculous mat- 
 ter is not only stopxjed by its use, but that already

 From increased physical and mental strength 
 of persons who use Fellows' Compound Sirup of 
 Hypophosphites, their augmented faculty of en- 
 durance, and their improved appearance demon- 
 strated in thousands of cases within our own 
 sphere of vision, its power of restoring the great 
 sympatheUc and muscular tiystema upon which full 
 and healthy development depends, is equally cer- 
 tain. Consumption, then, is reached and ban- 
 ished by restoring vigor to the blood, and by 
 toning the involuntary muscles of the various 
 organs, liver, lungs, heart, and Stomach, and by 
 fortifying the nervous system, all of which is 
 accomplished by this Hypophosphites, and proper 
 living.

 dren in ignorance of Uhe damning results of secret 
 sins and profligate habits. It becomes the duty 
 of parents to instruct their children as soon as 
 they reach the age of puberty, to avoid those 
 vicious habits, to Avoid fast men and fast women, 
 securing to them the boon of virtue, and a life of 
 happiness.

 whose life has proved a withering disappointment, 
 whose trembling frames are tottering under a 
 weight of nervous depression, anc^ who wish to 
 r^orm, we earnestly offer this preparation of Hy- 
 pophosphites : in it the debilitated frame will find 
 strength, the withered functions vitality, the mind 
 power of withstanding evil temptations; and 
 thereby the infinn, forlorn, and forsaken may 
 assume the standard of health and excellence ap- 
 proaching the best of the race. 
 
 " A fugitive and a vagabond ehalt thou be on the

 Irregular habits, vice, and disease fasten most 
 readily upon the debilitated; drunkenness^ upon 
 the licentious, upon the overworked artisan or 
 laborer, especially if badly or improperly fed; 
 upon the imaginative nature, exhausted by think- 
 ing, or the indolent mind untrained to labor and

 ject by nature or education be ever so slightly 
 predisposed thereto ; and disease, simply because 
 the nervous system is Incapable of resisting its 
 inroads.

 The author must not be understood as discoun- 
 tenancing the use of stimulants entirely. Those 
 advanced in life, or whose blood circulation is 
 sluggish, are sometimes benefited by them; but 
 the habitual use of spirits will destroy both young 
 and middle-aged. 
 
 We have ventured to present our views, and to 
 trace mankind through the various stages, from 
 infancy to manhood, to advise the methods of 
 government for the young, with a view to prevent 
 disease; and now we delineate the results of dissi- 
 pation and fast life as the shadows close. VVlien 
 the erring man finds the seed sown during a life- 
 time yielding a harvest of maladies ; when his fam- 
 ishing frame, clad in wretched habiliments, im- 
 plores the pity of the humane; energies, hopes, 
 health, opportunities, consumed by the flames 
 of passion, leaving to desolated age the ashes of 
 despai- ; when bronchitis and asthma appear, 
 giving the harsh, guttural accompaniment to the 
 voice, and almost suffocating their victim ; when 
 the heart's action is so feeble as scarcely to be de- 
 tected, —even then the case must be far advanced 
 which will not yield to the gracious influence of 
 Fellows' Hypophosphites, together with regular 
 habits in exercise, and rest, and the avoidance of

 extravagant, vicious habits, drinking, smoking, 
 and licentiousness. 
 
 These injunctions omitted, the miserable wretch, 
 with tottering footsteps, "drags the lengthened 
 chain'* of misspent years, wandering alone he 
 knows not whither. His frame succumbs, and 
 sinks to earth a mass of abomination ; his mind fast 
 scans the varied scenes of life's sad shipwreck, 
 the comrades ruined, the home made desolate, the 
 ties of kindred sundered, and hearts upon the 
 devirs altar sacrificed. He breathes his last,

 An Individual may be saturated with insane 
 blood, yet by correct living, and with little tax 
 upon the nervous substance, he may pass a life- 
 time without its being de eloped ; but let the 
 taint be ever so slight, and tax the nervous sys- 
 tem with an exhaustive contribution, and he must 
 succumb to the innate mental disease. 
 
 It does not follow that only the insane beget 
 Insane children ; an individual may so demoralize 
 and pollute his mind by excesses, debaucheries, 
 self-abuse, &c., that the progeny may all be un- 
 healthy, and possess weak or insane minds. 
 
 Although it may be difficult to eradicate hered- 
 itary taint, much may be accomplished by observ- 
 ing regular healthy habits of life, and building up 
 nervous vigor with the Hypophosphites, according 
 to directions. It has been and now is used with 
 excellent effect in some of our Lunatic Asylums.

 FELLOWS' HYPOPHOSPHITES 
 
 Has been before the world since 1865. It was in- 
 vented by Mr. JAMES I. FELLOWS, chemist, 
 St. John, N.B., has been introduced over a large 
 amount of territory by extensive advertising, and 
 become deservedly popular. It is used and pre- 
 scribed by the leading physicians, and pronounced 
 
 A TONIC FAR SURPASSING ANY COMPOSITION 
 EVER BEFORE USED IN MEDICINE. 
 
 Now in full view of its rapid sale, good profit to 
 the retailer, and of its undoubted curative power, 
 an army of imitators throughout the country are 
 manufacturing and foisting their worthless substi- 
 tutes, and, in some cases, even copying the sub- 
 scriber's advertisements, word for word, in order 
 to obtain more profit ; dishonestly profiting by the 
 justly earned reputation of the original, soiling 
 their own reputation, and interfering in the relief 
 of suffering humanity. 
 
 The public are cautioned to ask for Fellows' 
 Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites, and take no 
 other, as it differs from all other preparations in 
 composition, mode of manipulation, and in effect. 
 
 It is put up in pint oval bottles, on which the 
 words " Fellows & Co., St. John, N.B/' are blown.

 demonstrate. 
 
 IT IS ACCEPTABLE to palate and stomach. 
 
 SUFFICIENTLY POTENT to insure decided 
 benefit, yet harmless, howsoever long its use may 
 be continued. This characteristic is possessed by 
 no other remedy. 
 
 IT ASSISTS DIGESTION and assimilation.

 mgredients as may be required. 
 
 IT RESTORES TONE to the nerves. 
 
 IT GIVES POWER of endurance and of con- 
 centration to the mind. 
 
 IT PROMOTES VIGOR in the or-ans which 
 depend for health on the involuntary muscular 
 action; viz., the Liver, Lungs, Heart, Stomach, 
 ana Uenitals.

 And sufficiently economical for all. 
 
 All this has been uidisputably attained. The 
 success of the ■v\^rk is complete; and Fellows' 
 Hypophosphites stands foremost amongst the 
 remedies for chronic organic diseases, possessing 
 properties to which no other medicine has ever 
 aspired. 
 
 ARGUMENT. 
 
 As every species of excitation, whether bodily or 
 mental, involves the death, decay, or elimination of 
 a certain amount of tissue, and of the vital ele- 
 ment, the possibility of continued exertion depends 
 upon the due supply of reproductive means or 
 nutrition, and an unlimited facility of eliminating 
 dead and useless matter. While Fellows' Hypo- 
 phosphites exerts an influence upon the nervous 
 system, it will, under all circumstances, nourish 
 it, and through it the muscles which it governs. 
 
 The presence of this remedy is necessary, then, 
 especially in wasting and distressing diseases, to 
 create and sustain the normal degree of strength ; 
 and its prescribed use can never exert a baneful 
 influence under any circumstances whatever. 
 
 ABSTRACT EFFECTS. 
 
 Fellows' Hypophosphites, on being introduced 
 into the stomach, unites with the food, and im- 
 mediately enters the circulation; and, being per- 
 fectly miscible with the blood, speedily pervades 
 every part of the system. Its effects are "first de- 
 clared by a pulse slightly increased in fulness and 
 strength, a general exaltation of the organic func-

 THE MIND. 
 
 That the mind influences disease, seems as ac- 
 cepted a doctrine, by both physiologists and pa- 
 thologists, as that the mind influences the body 
 in health; and, since this is so, it becomes diffi- 
 cult to estimate the value of mental treatment in 
 cases of debility. The influence exerted by the 
 physician over his patient cannot be denied ; some 
 having the faculty ot producing or diffusing cheer- 
 fulness, simply by their presence. This influence 
 may be exerted by the immediate friends as well ; 
 and the fact, if widely known, is too frequently 
 overlooked. The pain of sickness is suflicient for 
 the poor sufferer, without being reminded daily 
 of his wasted limbs and blanched complexion ; in 
 fact, a very effectual means to shorten life is to 
 impress the belief on the patient's mind of the 
 hopelessness of his case. Sustain the drooping 
 spirit of the sick one by lively conversation, con- 
 genial friends, and by simple 
 
 GAMES AND PASTIMES. 
 
 WTien able to walk beyond his chamber, let him 
 ramble in quest of some chosen object. No pas- 
 time seems to me more pregnant with pleasure, at 
 once instructive, and calculated to weaii^the mind 
 from bodily cares, tnan the study of natural his- 
 tory. The field is so extensive as to secure' from 
 every invalid, male or female, learned or un- 
 learned, admiration for some one branch, while 
 the study is accessible to both rich and poor. 
 
 To some, the search for minerals and fossils, 
 among the rockjj steeps of the mountains or the 
 sea-washed shore, has attractions; to others, the 
 
 ■ii 
 
32. 
 
 collection of birds, peptiles, or insects. Some ad- 
 mire wild flowers, the gathering of ferns, mosses, 
 or leaves. Often the taste for sea-weeds, coral- 
 lines, zoophytes, carries the naturalist amateur 
 along the ocean shore. Thus, oy having an ob- 
 ject in view, the patient or convalescent may 
 benefit immeasurably by open-air exercise, where 
 the rambles without an object would only pro- 
 duce melancholy thoughts, both unpleasant and 
 
 IISTJURIOUS. 
 
 As a fellow-sufferer, tlien, no less than an ad- 
 viser, I can recommend the study of nature to 
 those whose full vigor of mind and body' has been 
 impaired ; and let no one think slightingly of any 
 pursuit, which, not put in the place of the higher 
 realities of religion, but used as an auxiliary to 
 them, .has such capabilities of resioring tone to 
 the mind, and vigor to the body. 
 
 EXEHCISE. 
 
 As this is a very important hygienic agent, its 
 consideration deserves more attention than can 
 possibly be bestowed upon it here. The inventor 
 must therefore refer the reader to his medical ad- 
 viser, wh«, from his knowledge of the disease, may 
 give proper directions for such as will suit his par- 
 ticular case; stating, however, that in all affec- 
 tions of the lungs and heart, in fevers, acute rheu- 
 matism, or inflammatory disease, muscular exer- 
 tion is injurious, and the patient should be satis- 
 fied with carriage-exercise or sailing.

 REGIMEN AND DIET 
 
 Chemically considered, food consists of two im- 
 ortaiL const tuents, ^ the nitrogenized, and Ihe 
 
 w;!J''Tt?'^^- "^^ f"™*"- «er^e« for the for! 
 ination of blood and living tissues, and contains

 L,r.»?/. the non-nltrogenized substances, the 
 Consideration of the proper articles of diet should 
 
84 
 
 be of paramount importance to most other mat- 
 ters. In looking over the daily bills of fare at 
 home, we find tea, coffee, milk, bread, beef, mut- 
 ton, veal, butter, potatoes, turnips, carrots, &c. 
 These are well, and it is not the writer's province 
 to find fault with any, when in their places ; but, 
 as our bread is prepared from bolted wheat, the 
 beef and mutton discarded except at the mid-day 
 meal, pure milk scanty, tea and coffee in excess, 
 potatoes, salt, and butter plenty, we know there 
 are grievous wrongs requiring correction. 
 First, then, make ude of bread prepared from 
 
 UNBOLTED FLOUR. 
 
 • 
 
 The r>rocess of bolting, although it obtains very 
 nice-looking flour, deprives it of the nitrogenized 
 substances which produce blood and the living 
 organism, and leaves behind the starch and glu- 
 ten, which are comparatively useless vitalizing 
 agents. Again : the coverings of wheat contain 
 the phosphates which go to constitute bone and 
 muscle, while they materially assist digestion by 
 causmg the rapid decomposition of the food. It is 
 m this way the phosphates in the Compound Sirup 
 of Hypophosphites a^it, while the tonics it contains 
 tend to give new power, and to strengthen the 
 
 ORGANS OF DIGESTION. 
 
 Be careful to discard pastry of all kinds; also 
 all food or beverages which ferment rapidly, or 
 soon turn sour by acetous fermentation. If an 
 acid drink is very desirable, the juice of a lemon 
 in water will do no harm; but, as a rule, acids 
 are injurious to

 tion of climate. On account of the imtating in- 
 fluence of the air-passages of the lungs by ozone, 
 which is a constituent in the south wind from the 
 ocean, it is desirable to reside at least fifty to a 
 hundred miles from the Atlantic seaboard, and 
 in a temperate climate. Extreme cold is not ob- 
 jectionable ; but sudden changes and a damp at- 
 mosphere are always injurious. 
 
 CLOTHING 
 
 is very important. Woollen garments should 
 alwavs be worn next the body, winter and sum- 
 mer, subject to immediate change in case of damp- 
 ness from perspiration or otherwise. 
 
 FINALLY, 
 
 All excesses should be avoided, especially fre- 
 quent sexual intercourse, overtasking the mind 
 either by study, grief, or anxiety. In fact, the 
 prolific causes of consumption are such as induce 
 weakness of the vital functions, among which are 
 mental activity, anxiety, grief, excessive venery, 
 insufficient nourishment, rapid growth, child- 
 bearing, residence in 
 
 FILTHY LOCALITIES, &c. 
 
 The use of alcoholic stimulants, tobacco, and 
 gratifying the taste for vicious and irregular hab- 
 its, are also highly injurious to persons of weak 
 nerves ; but no irregularity is the source of more 
 disease than frequent sexual indulgence or sol- 
 itary habits.

 PHYSICIANS' TESTIMONY. 
 
 St. John, N.B. 
 
 Mr. James I. Fellows, Manufacturing Chem- 
 ist, bir,— For several months past I have used your 
 Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites in the treat- 
 ment of incipient phthisis, chronic bronchitis, and 
 other affections of the chest ; and I have no hes- 
 itation in stating that it ranks foremost amongst 
 the remedies used in those diseases. Being an 
 excellent nervous tonic, it exerts a direct influence 
 on the nervous system; and, through it, it invig- 
 orates the body. ^ 
 
 It affords me much pleasure to recommend a 
 remedy which is really good in cases for which it 
 IS intended, when so many advertised are worse 
 than useless.

 used it myself for tuberculosis with marked bene- 
 fit, and have given it to a great number of my 
 patients, with the same results as I experienced 
 from its use. During the last seven years I have 
 devoted myself almost exclusively to the treat- 
 ment of consumption, having cases under my 
 care in all parts of the pn)vince; so that I am 
 enabled to speak from experience of the benefit 
 derived from its use. 
 
 The most marked was a case which was under 
 my care in March last. This was a patient who 
 had been under treatment nine months with no 
 beneficial results. When I first saw him he was 
 so feeble that he could not sit up long enough 
 V> have his heart and lungs examined. What Ms- 
 3ase he had been treated for did not appear, but I 
 found him suffering under eJironic splenitis. He 
 had a severe cough, dyspnoea, palpitation of the 
 heart, impaired digestion, and consequent general 
 emaciation. 1 put him under treatment, and in 
 a few weeks he was able to move about a little ; 
 but still the debility continued. I then prescribed 
 your Compound Siriip of Hypophosphites ; and, 
 after using four bottles, he was able to attend to 
 his farm, and is now perfectly well. In March 
 he was given up by four physicians respectively ; 
 in May he assisted in ploughing eighteen acres 
 of land, and had run up in flesh from a hundred 
 and thirty-six to a hundred and forty-eight pounds 
 weight. 
 
 I send you this for the purpose of makmg what 
 
 use you please of it, and wish you all success in

 Mr. Fellows. Sir^ — I am bound to award the

 it myself in a case of aphonia, which would not

 it proved to be all that you claimed for it, having 
 acted with expedition and entire satisfaction.

 Mb. James I. Fellows, St. John, N.B. Sir, 
 — Having, while at your establishment, carefully 
 examined your prescriptions, and the method of 
 preparing your Compound Sirup of Hypophos- 
 phites, I felt anxious to give i. a fair trial in 
 my practice. For the last twelve months I have 
 done so, and find that in incipient consumption, 
 and other diseases of the throat and lungs, it has 
 done wonders. In restoring persons suffering 
 from the effect of diphtheria, and the cough fol- 
 lowing typhoid fever, prevalent in this region, 
 it is the best remedial agent I have ever used. 
 But for persons suffering from exhaustion of the 
 powers of the brain and nervous system, from 
 long-continued study or teaching, or in those 
 cases of exhaustion from which so many young 
 men suffer, I know of no better medicine for 
 restoration to health than your Compound Sirup 
 of Hypophosphites. 
 
 If you think this letter of any service, you are 
 at liberty to use it as you see fit.

 Halifax, N.S. 
 Mr. J. I. Fellows. Dear ;Szr, — From a gen- 
 eral knowledge of the prominent ingredients of 
 your Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites, I 
 formed such a favorable opinion as to be induced 
 to recommend it to my patients as preferable, and 
 more convenient than my own prescription of 
 the Hypophosphites. For several years I have 
 c jntinued to prescribe it, in many cases with very 
 beneficial results. Since, upon solicitation, you 
 kindly afforded me a more intimate knowledge of 
 the composition of your Compound Sirup of Hy- 
 pophosphites, I have used it freely in my practice, 
 both in diseases of the chest, as consumption and 
 bronchitis, &c., and in infantile diseases of the 
 prima via, or stomach and bowels, with eminent 
 success, considering it superior to any similar 
 preparation yet offered to the public. Thanking 
 you for your kind information, 
 
 I remain, yours truly,

 Mr. James I. Fellows, Chemist. Bear Sir, — 
 In May, 1866, 1 was attacked with a severe dry 
 cough, which continued in harshness for some 
 time, when I commenced expectorating a thick 
 whitish substance; then I raised a greenish yellow 
 and slate-colored matter; then bleeding of the 
 lungs set in, and other symptoms of a very alarm- 
 ing character showed themselves. I consulted the 
 leading physicians in Philadelphia and other 
 cities, who gave me no encouragement, as my dis- 
 ease was consumption. I spared no expense to 
 obtain relief, but found none. In August, I had

 43 
 
 home they considered my case hopeless, and 
 wished me to remain there, and not die in a for- 
 eign country. I visited St. John in October of the 
 same year, on my way to Philadelphia to join my 
 ship, and was advised by a stranger, who noticed 
 I my shrunken form and racking cough, to try your 
 
 COMPOUND SIRUP OF HYPOPHOS- 
 
 PHITES ; 
 
 and, as a drowning man will grasp at straws, I 
 saw a ray of hope in the suggestion, and procured 
 a bottle. The effect warranted a further trial; 
 and I bought a dozen bottles, and left St. John, 
 and have been knocking about the Atlantic ever 
 since. As this is the first time I have visited your 
 city since, I feel under an obligation to let you 
 know the effects produced by this Sirup. I con- 
 tiimed taking the remedy regularly. At first my 
 appetite improved, I regained strength, then my 
 'cough gradually left me, and finally the expecto- 
 ration ceased ; and, although the benefit was grad- 
 ual, I could note the change for the better every 
 day; so that, after having tak^n ten bottles, I con- 
 sidered myself well. This was about five months 
 from the time I commenced taking the Sirup. A 
 short time after, I had considerable trouble, and, 
 feeling some of the old symptoms returning, I 
 finished the other two bottles ; and now I consider 
 myself as well as I ever was in my life. My pres- 
 ent weight is 162, seven pounds above my usual 
 healthy standard. My nerves are good, my appe-

 5'iV,— In behalf of my family I wish to ac- 
 knowledge a debt of gratitude I owe Mr. James I. 
 Fellows. My daughter had been ill with inflam- 
 mation of the lungs, had raised large quantities 
 of blood and purulent matter, attended with every 
 symptom of consumption. After obtaining the at- 
 tendance of two eminent physicians, who afforded 
 her no relief, she was persuaded to try Fellows' * 
 Sirup of Hypophosphites. Upon taking two bot- 
 tles, we had every reason to believe she would be 
 cured. Her physician was surprised to find her 
 improvement so rapid, and advised her to con- 
 tinue its use, which she did until her complete 
 recovery. Two years have elapsed, during which 
 time she has neither taken nor required any med- 
 icine, enjoying good health, and urges all who are 
 afflicted with any lung or chest trouble to use the 
 Hypophosphites without fail. 
 
 My wife also having been in bad health for some 
 time, and having had typhoid fever in December 
 last, which left her much prostrated, was advised 
 by the physicians to use this remedy to build her

 up. Before taking half a bottle she found herself 
 much benefited, and still continues to use it. 
 
 I believe, under kind Providence, Fellows' Com- 
 pound Sirup of Hypophosphites has been the 
 means of restoring both my wife and daughter, 
 and I hope the afflicted will avail themselves of 
 Its use ; for, although it is widely used, I think its 
 value IS not appreciated.

 The writer, in narrating how he was affected

 hopes the hints embodied may not be rejected by 
 the reader. 
 
 That any case of consumption is curable by the 
 above-named remedy, which has not progressed 
 beyond the second stage, no doubt any longer 
 remains ; and, when used in the third, great relief 
 and prolonged existence is also certain.

 It mat- 
 : some 
 
 months, and, being exceedingly nervous, the 
 symptoms caused alarm. As my business was 
 that of a dispensing chemist, the shop was con- 
 stantly visited by medical men, all of whom ten- 
 dered their advice. During 1864 and 1865, my 
 chest was examined by ten first-class physicians, 
 some of whom pronounced the case bronchitis; 
 some not wishing to cause alarm, or unwilling to 
 venture an opinipn, gave no decision ; some stated 
 unequivocally, that I had tubercular- disease of 
 the lungs, and located the trouble where the pains 
 were felt. By professional advice I used, in turn, 
 horseback exercise, country life, eggs and ale in 
 the morning, tonics, Bourbon whiskey, cod-liver 
 oil, electricity^ tar, and various inhalements ; but 
 the 
 
 TROUBLE INCREASED. 
 
 Expectoration became more profuse and offensive ; 
 night sweats set in ; cold chills, diarrhoea, dyspnoea, 
 cough, blood-streaked expectorations, loss of sleep, 
 loss of appetite, loss of memory, loss of ambition, 
 accompanied by general prostration, showed them- 
 selves. Under the microscope, the blood was found 
 to contain but a small portion of vitalized corpus- 
 cles ; the heart's action was feeble, the pulse inter- 
 mittent, the stomach could not digest properly ; so 
 that flatulency and acidity was tjie resuH. Find- 
 ing the symptoms indicated consumption, I deter- 
 mined to use every effort to stay its progress, and, 
 if possible, 
 
 TO CURE IT. 
 
 I had heard well-authenticated instances, where, 
 in po8t-mortem< examinations, a cicatrix had been 
 
48 
 
 found in the lung; the subject, having been con- 
 sumptive, became cured, and died from otlior 
 causes. I was not long in forming a belief tliat 
 commmpticn loaa curable. With this idea, I com- 
 menced a series of chemical experiments, in order 
 to arrest the disease. My primary rule, through- 
 out these experiments, was to ** use nothing which 
 would, in the slightest degree, impair the system," 
 no matter how prolonged the use might be ex- 
 tended. Whou it is understood how many diffi- 
 culties • 
 
 I HAD TO COMBAT, 
 
 the perplexity of the researches will be appre- 
 ciated. Laboring under diseased body and mind, 
 I must invent and compound a remedy to restore 
 to the blood the red corpuscle, promote healthy 
 digestion, regulate the heart's action, build up an 
 appetite, cause the breathing to be easy (this dif- 
 ficulty was so great that I had frequently to be 
 bolstered in bed). I must produce easy expec- 
 toration, and strengthen the nervous system. I 
 selected the most 
 
 POWERFUL TONICS 
 
 and moderators, and combined them with the vi- 
 tal constituents of the human body. For months 
 I endeavored to amalgamate them, before my ef- 
 forts were crowned with success. I cannot speak 
 too plainly or too strongly of the effects produced 
 and the benefits I received from the composition * 
 At first my appetite increased, the expectoration 
 became easy, digestion better, the foeces became 
 more copious and less frequent, cold chills ceased, 
 night sweats lessened, I gained in weight, the

 * FOGGY CLIMATE 
 
 of St. John, my recovery was necessarily slow, 
 although I could observe a gradual return of 
 strength for three years, during which time I 
 continued faking the remedy. My present weight 
 is one hundred and eighty-eight, being thirty- 
 eight above my usual. I have no symptoms left 
 denoting disease: the only notable sign during 
 twelve months was the expectoration; now that 
 has stopped, and I consider myself well. The 
 reader may ask, How do you know your diffi- 
 culty to have proceeded from ulcerated or tuber- 
 culated lung? I answer in the most certain of 
 all modes for ascertaining: In March last, I 
 coughed from the right King a piece of PHOS- 
 PHATE OF LIME, half the size of a pea, which 
 could have come from no other place, and which 
 the highest authority in lung diseases (Laennec) 
 states is the result of tubercle which has been 
 cured ; add to this, I had the leaden-colored, pur- 
 ulent, blood-streaked expectoration, and the opin- 
 ion of one of the best diagnosticians in the coun- 
 try. I believe I have experienced all the symptoms 
 incident to the two first stages of consumption, 
 and have successfully combated them ; so that I 
 do not despair of any case where there is left suf- 
 ficient lung tissue to build upon. I can only add, 
 
 sales would never induce me to publish this re- 
 port, but a sincere sympathy for the pool* con-

 James L Fellows, Esq. Dear 8ir, — Please 
 forward another lot of your Sirup of Hyphophos- 
 pliites. 
 
 I have used other preparations of Hypophos- 
 phites (not being able to procure this) ; but they 
 do not compare with yours, which, I think, is the 
 best medicine for the nervous system I ever used. 
 
 I will aid you all I can personally, and through 
 the press, as I believe it cannot be too generally 
 known. 
 
 Yours truly,

 HEART DISEASE, 
 
 Palpitation, Feeble and Irregular Action 
 of the Heart CURED by 
 
 FELLOWS' COMPODUD SIRDP OF HYPOPHOSPHITES. 
 
 Freeport, Digby County, N.S. 
 
 Mr. James I. Fellows. Dear Sir, — Grati- 
 tude to you, and sympathy for the afflicted, induce 
 me to send you a written statement of my case.

 and the cure effected by using your Compound 
 Sirup of Hypophosphites. 
 
 In April, 1868, I was attacked with palpitation 
 of the heart. I sent for the doctor ; and he said 
 that nothing could be done for me, and that I was 
 liable to die very suddenly. Being very weak, and 
 unable to leave my bed, I became discouraged. 
 
 After my physician gave me up, I was induced 
 to use your Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites ; 
 and the effect was wonderful. In two days, I felt 
 the benefit of it ; and, after taking half a bottle, 
 I was entirely free from the complaint, and to this 
 day have not been troubled with a return of the 
 heart disease. 
 
 Yours very truly, 
 
 Saeah Lent. 
 
 Campbellton, N.B., July, 1873. 
 
 James I. Fellows, Esq. Dear Sir, — In the 
 fall of 1865, William Young, Esq., merchant, Car- 
 aquet, Gloucester County, was ill with typhoid 
 fever. Immediately after his recovery, he became 
 afflicted with a cough, accompanied by much ex- 
 pectoration. 
 
 Residing at the time in that neighborhood, my 
 attention was called to his case. The usual tonics 
 and expectorants were administered without any 
 perceptible benefit. 
 
 Having business in Montreal, Mr. Young con- 
 sulted several eminent physicians there, includ- 
 
 T-i_ /-^__,_t^^ii ^* ■nr^r'n^ riz-vii 
 
 a residence in a Southern climate, as his right 
 lung was very seriously affected with a tubercular 
 
52 
 
 deposit, which agreed with the opinion I had pre- 
 viously formed. , x. r. 
 
 He spent the following winter m Savannah. On 
 his return, little or no improvement could be ob- 
 served : and, in a short time, frequent and pros- 
 trating hemorrhage from the lungs, night sweats, 
 and much expectoration, causing great emaciation, 
 had reduced him to a very feeble state of health. 
 
 Ascertaining the ingredients of Fellows Com- 
 pound Sirup of Hypophosphites, I resolved to give 
 
 it a trial in his case. . 
 
 He commenced using the Sirup, and, in much 
 less time than I could expect, began to improve, the 
 nrogress of the disease to be arrested almost imme- 
 diately. He has had no return of the hemorrhage. 
 His appetite has returned, and his cough abated. 
 
 He was at Halifax a few days ago, and is now 
 attending to his usual duties. 
 
 I deem it a duty to you, and the public as well, 
 to give you the above statement of facts. 
 
 Yours respectfully, 
 
 A. Smith, M.D. 
 
 I certify the above to be correct,

 Richmond, Me., Dec. 1, 1873. 
 My Dear Sir,— In March, 1871, I was attacked 
 with inflammation of the lungs, which was fol- 
 lowed by a severe cough, bleeding of the lungs, 
 and all the symptoms of consumption, which are 
 too well known in almost every housenoiu to necu 
 to be enumerated by me.

 During the month of May, my attention was 
 providentially directed to Fellows' Compound 
 Sirup of Hypophospbites, and I became very 
 anxious to obtain the remedy; but, as it was not 
 then for sale in this country, I was a long time 
 in procuring it. It was not until the following 
 November that I had the benefit of the remedy: 
 and I confidently believe, that, had I not used the 
 Hypophosphites, I should not now be living. 
 
 It improved my appetite, promoted digestion, 
 and imparted strength to my nervous system; 
 and, as an expectorant, I think it has no equal, and 
 I would recommend its use to all suffering from 
 disease of the lungs, heart, and liver. I say all, 
 because I believe that, even in cases where disease 
 has progressed so far as to render a cure impos 
 sible, it will relieve suffering, and prolong life. 
 
 By her permission, I refer to Mrs. Jaques of 
 Pittsfield, Somerset County, my former place of 
 
 FPsidence 
 
 This lady has been for years a great sufferer 
 from liver trouble and heart disease, her case 
 seeming to baffle the skill of many physicians 
 whom she consulted. She now finds great relief 
 from the Hypophosphites, and says she cannot 
 live without it. Please publish this. 
 
 Respectfully yours, 
 
 Mrs. J. C. Bakeb.

 NEURALGIA. 
 
 It has been ascertained that the most inveterate 
 cases of neuralgia are cured by Fellows oirup px 
 Hypophosphites. Not only is the principal dis- 
 
64 
 
 ease eradicated, but the patient is made vigorous 
 and strong: the stomach, the blood, the skin, be- 
 come healthy, and he obtains a new lease of enjoy- 
 able life. 
 
 The only satisfactory treatment of neuralgia is 
 by strengthening the nervous system. A person 
 with strong nerves never suffers from this disease. 
 
 Amherst, N.S. 
 
 While I was under the process of erysipelas, the 
 
 Hon. Dr. called upon me. I told him how 
 
 much of the Hypophosphites I had used. He said, 
 " Fellows' Hypophosphites is a good medicine, — 
 an excellent tonic, — and, no doubt, had drawn 
 the acidity that was in my blood to the surface, 
 and thus prevented it from attacking some im- 
 portant organ of my system.*' I have conversed 
 with many who have used it; and all say they 
 were benefited by h. For myself, I have much 
 pleasure in saying, it improved my general health 
 amazingly. It gives a clear skin and a healthy 
 countenance ; but, to know its virtues, it must be 
 used ; and, were it within the reach of all classes, 
 I believe it would be used universally, — yes, by 
 the whole to renew their age, and by the sick to 
 make them well. It makes an old person look 
 ten years younger. ** This witness is true." 
 Would that I could more wii'ely make it known 
 for its many virtues ! Long may its inventor live 
 to see the happy fruits of his invention I

 St. John, N.B., Aug. 11, 1869. 
 
 Mr. James I. Fellows. Dear Sir, — I con- 
 sider it my duty to inform you of the great benefit 
 I have received from the use of your Compound 
 Sirup of Hypophosphites. I have been, for the 
 last nine years, a great sufferer from bronchitis 
 and asthma; at times so ill for weeks, that I could 
 neither lie down, nor take any nourishment of 
 consequence, and, during the time, suffering in- 
 tensely. I have had at different times the ad- 
 vice of twenty-two physicians. . . . The least ex- 
 posure to either damp or draught was sure to 
 result in a severe attack of my disease. Fnid- 
 ing no relief from all the medicines I had taken, 
 I concluded to try your Compound Sirup of Hypo- 
 phosphites, and have great reason to thank God 
 for the result. I have, in all, taken twelve bot- 
 tles ; and now I feel as strong and well as ever I 
 felt in my life, and, for the last year, have not 
 had one moment's sickness; and neither does 
 dampness or draught have the least effect upon 
 me. Were I to write on the subject for hours, I 
 could not say enough in_praise of your invalu- 
 able Compound Sirup of Hypophosphites, or give 
 an adequate idea of my sufferings. 
 
 You are at liberty to make what use you please

 of this letter, because I hope its publicity may be 
 the means of benefiting other sufferers as much 
 as it has me.

 HASTY CONSUMPTION 
 
 Cured by 
 
 FELLOWS' HYPOPHOSPHITES. 
 
 Gakbonear, Newfoundland, 
 Jan. 3, 1871. 
 Mr. James I. Fellows. Dear Sir,^l came 
 to this country in May, 1869. I found a country- 
 man of mine laboring under some affection of the 
 lungs. I recommended your Sirup, tried at the 
 druggists in Harbor Grace; but they thought I 
 was inviting the name at their expense. How- 
 ever, in April, 1870, Mr. Edgar Joyce rapidly 
 wasted away with every symptom of' quick con- 
 sumption; so that he was unable to walk across 
 the room, having no appetite, pains in the left 
 side, nervous system unstrung, diy, hacking 
 cough, &c. Fortunately I learned that your 
 Sirup could be obtained at Mr. Bearings, in St. 
 John's, and immediately procured some (showed 
 one to W. H. Thompson, who ordered a supply 
 from you at once). This was Tuesday afternoon. 
 
 -rvv ^^.g^xL- s.±'^- uv/vj'iv vi.i'c pxco^^iiucu Ul/SU, ciliU m the 
 
 morning he described the very results notified on 
 the wrapper. His appetite soon began to retui-n. 
 
57 
 
 ana a voracious one it was too ; the dry, hacking 
 cough changed into loose and violent attacks, 
 finally disappearing altogether; pains left his side, 
 his hand resumed its usual steadiness ; and, before 
 he finished ten bottles, his health was quite re- 
 stored, and to-day not a more healthy person is 
 to be found on our streets ; and it is the opinion 
 of all, had he not been fortunate in gettini? your 
 valuable Sirup of Hypophosphites, he would now 
 be in his grave. 
 
 He happened to be in W. H. Thompson's the 
 day your first shipment arrived, and took at 
 once four bottles to the Labrador, which he was 
 very anxious to do, but had no occasion to use 
 •them himself. No other medicine will he ever 
 prescribe, recommend, or give, but yours. 
 
 I also recommended it to another consumptive, 
 but have not heard from him since, as he lives in 
 a distant part of the island. Hoping this will 
 give you some encouragement, 
 
 I remain yours, &c.,

 of its remarkable effects came under our obser-

 family predisposed to the disease. His friends 
 became alarmed at the progress of his malady ; and, 
 realizing the chances as against him, he began to 
 take Fellows' Hypophosphites. Instead of grow- 
 ing wor^e, his health improved ; and he now weighs 
 fifty pounds more than he did before he began to 
 take the Sirup. We saw him last week, the pic-

 CONSUMPTION. 
 
 Hudson City, N. J. 
 Mrs. William Lawrence, writing to Mr. Fellows, 
 says, "I cannot tell you how many have called to 
 see me to inquire if I really have been as ill as 
 reported, a^^d if it was the Sirup alone which so 
 wonderfully restored me (a consumptive) to such 
 good health. With gladness I tell them all that 
 my recovery is due to Fellows' Compound Sirup 
 of Hypophosphites, with the blessing of God 
 upon it." 
 
 Fellows' Hypophosphites being peculiar in its 
 effects and composition, no other preparation is 
 a substitute for it. 
 
 A late number of tht St. John " Morning K'ews »' 
 thus concludes a lengthy article eulogizing Fel- 
 lows Sirup of Hypophosphites: "Mr. Fellows is 
 certamly entitled to high credit for his energy and 
 
61 
 
 enterprise in working up his valuable discovery so 
 successfully ; and the presence of such gentlemen 
 in any community is a matter on which that com- 
 munity should congratulate itself/* 
 
 The St. John "Telegraph and Journal" says, 
 " The invention of Fellows' Hypophosphites has 
 become one of the valuable industries of the 
 country, — unique of its kind, and a credit to the 
 Dominion of Canada." 
 
 I^etter from Rev. John McM array. 
 
 James I. Fellows, Esq. Bear Sir, — I have 
 recently heard, from an invalid, of the great ben- 
 efit derived from your Compound Sirup of Jlypo- 
 phosphites ; and having, in many other instances, 
 marked the most beneficial results from its use, 
 I cannot but regard its discovery as a matter of 
 devout thankfulness to a benign Providence. 
 
 I have used it considerably myself, and, at in- 
 tervals during several years past, given it to some 
 membiers of my family. 
 
 I have also recommended it to others, and in- 
 variably found it to be of essential benefit in those 
 complaints for which it is especially recommended. 
 
 In bronchial and other chest affections, in ar- 
 resting incipient consumption, and in lessening 
 the distressing symptoms of this disease in its 
 hopeless stages, as well as in cases of nervous de- 
 bility, in giving tone to the system, it is undoubt- 
 ediy a valuable remedy.

 Sirup of Hypophosphites a fair though somewhat 
 x,?m ""^ Ti "' n^y Pi-actice, and am able to speak 
 with confiderce of its effects. In restoring per- 
 sons suffering from emaciation, and the debility 
 following diphtheria, it has done wonders. I con- 
 stantly recommend its use in all affections of the 
 throat and lungs. In several cases considered 
 hopeless, it has given relief, and the patients are 
 fast recovering. Among these are consumptive 
 and old bronchial subjects, whose diseases have 
 resisted the other modes of treatment. For im- 
 paired digestion, and, in fact, from debility from 
 any cause, I know of nothing equal to it. Its 
 direct effect in strengthening the nervous system 
 renders it suitable for the majority of diseases.

 Sir :-In the Autumn of 1869 my little girl, seven years 
 old, received a severe injury in the wrist bv falling from 
 a 8 wmg. A swelling appeared which gradually became 
 worse., until it suppurated and discharged a quantity of 
 blood and matter. During this time bhe was attacked by 
 diphtheria, trom which the recovery was very slow The 
 d scharge from the arm continued 14 months. Various 
 physicians were called in from time to time, and all the 
 remedies we could hear of were. used, finally the ulcer 
 healed, and the poor child was so far prostrated that 
 nothing seemed to b-anefit her. Then she was attacked 
 by the falling sickness which seized upon her frequently. 
 During these paroxisms she would drop apparently life- 
 less, and it required the efforts of the household to arouse 
 her to animation. As her sufferings had so worn upon 
 her, and as there appeared no abatement to the disease, 
 we were advised to try Fellows' Syrup of Hypophos- 
 phites, in Nov. 1873. She used only three bottles and 
 became entirely cured. As her health has continued 
 good ever sine?, and as she, from being very ill and 
 weakly, has become the most robust and healthy of the 
 family, we are safe iii saying that all of this is owing to 
 this invaluaole remedy.
