![tious. I likewise had recourse to different Patent Medicines, from which l only derived, occasionally, some {Temporary relief. 44 By accident, l came to the knowledge of the Cerevisia, at a time when my disorders were at the worst, and when despair of recovery had taken possession of my mind. From the character given of its powers and properties, I determined to give it a fair trial, which 1 immediately commenced. I continued taking it for twelve months, when my perseverance was crowned with complete success. It is now thirteen years ago ; and I have ever since enjoyed sound comfortable health. I still, however, take a little iccasionally, to keep off every symptom of relapse. Indeed, 1 have found it also a most Axcellent Family Medicine, having very seldom had occasion to call in a Medical Man. It was my settled conviction of the efficacious powers of the Cerevisia that first induced me to become a vendor. “ Redcar, Yorkshire. 44 Thomas Bell.’- Mr. Ball is the 44Person allud'd to by Mr. ABERNETHY, in his 44 Sur¬ gical Observations on the Constitutional Origin and Treatment of Local Diseases,” pp. 153, ibi, to which that eminent man so commonly referred his patients. A Clergy¬ man in Mr. Bell's neighbourhood had a Son in Christ-Church Blue-Coat School where Mr. Abernethy was Hospital Surgeon; and the Boy, being severely afflicted with ulcers on his hands, wrists, head, and face became his patient. The Youth was, some time afterwards, sent home to his friends, for the benefit of bathing and sea-air ; when Mr. Bell prevailed on the Father to allow his Son to take the Cerevisia; conditioning that if the Medicine failed to remove the cruel disorder, he would not charge for it. The Boy soon returned to School, to the astonishment of Mr. Abernethy, 44 perfectly healed;” and this eminent Surgeon, in his aforesaid Book, has furnished the most powerful evidence of the wonderful efficacy of this invaluable Medicine. He states that “As the Patient's “circumstances made it inconvenient to him to remain in town, he went into the country, “ where the sore broke out again. He then app’ied to a Person who sold a famous diet- “ drink; and before he had taken twelve bottles, the sore was perfectly healed, and has “ not since broken out. The Diet-Drink, he says, had no sensible operation ; but his “ bowels became regular and comfortable, and his appetite amended by taking it.

I requested him to try a dose of the Diet-Drink. He did so, although almost against his will, and was rewarded by a night of sound and refreshing sleep. He continued to take it for some time, and was restored to perfect health. 44 The other is that of a female, who, by taking too strong doses of drastic purgative medicine, had reduced herself to a weakly, sleepless state with constant irritation of the bowels, which the Cerevisia at once soothed, and restored her to perfect health. Indeed, whenever 1 find myself at all indisposed, Cerevisia restores me. 44 Kentish Town. 18 4 6 . 44 H Harding.” [Reference to Mr. Harding, 3, Ilungerford Wharf, Strand, March 1858.] 44 No. 4, Teale Street, Seabright Street, Bethnal Green Road, Jan. 16, 1858. 44 Gentlemen, — Agreeably with your request I have sent you the two cases for your insertion, as under. An important case of Mrs. E. L., of Stratford, who begs to acknowledge the very great benefit she has derived from your valuable Diet- Diink, which she was induced to try after having the advice of Physicians, and also the benefit of Sea-bathing, which she found of no avail, having been injured through a severe fall, which brought her into a low and very weak state, and her case was almost pronounced hopeless ; but she is thankful for the benefit derived. She is at the present time enjoying excellent ' ealth. E. L., ! 0, Alma Terrace, Strat¬ ford New Town, Essex.—A case of Spinal Affection, General Debility, and Violent Sickness, which she has been labouring under for some years past, having had the advice of Physicians and Doctors, from which she found but little relief.
