HYGEIANISM.
THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy
of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
our diseases, apeak in a language which must carry
conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:—
Brows Uxiykrsitt, Pec. 25, 1833.
To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the.Hygeian Vege
table Universal Medicines, for the State of Rhode
Island.
Sin—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com
pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a
brief statement of k cure, which, I think, I received
from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the
same the more cheerfully,- because thereby, perhaps,
I may be useful to some of my fellow-men, who may
be afflicted with a similar disease.
My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and that my real condition mav be explicitly un ler
stool, I state, in connexion with the relation of the
cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep
, tember, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on
i my lungs; 1 was confined to my room about one week,
with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon abated, and apparently, 1 was regaining
mv health; when, after about three weeks, in the
course of the night, having returned the evening be
fore in usual health. I found myself bleed-'ng at the
j lungs. I had not. to my knowledge, received any hurt
I or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut
j ed I spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left
me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap
■ petite, and withal, very weak
A few weeks determined that I was in a decline I
received the attention of the most skilful Physicians,
who often seemed to che:k the progress of the dis
ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. Hut
rel pse upon relap.-e, and each bringing me,lower
i than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill,
and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus,
months after the first stuck, a " tubercle” [small ul
cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one
day. 1 continued to decline twomonths longer, when
I obtained the Hygeian Medicines I had now been
nnahle to sit up a whole d*y, for four months and a
half. My feet were cold and lifeless, sleep unsound,
cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the
afternoon from seventy-five to one hundred per mi
nute, food produced great distress, appetite very
poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart,
attended with some cough, S«e. fcc. Such was my
condition, when I first became acquainted with the
Hygeian Medicines- I commenced taking the medi
cines, four pills at a dose, and increase ! the dose dai
ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten
days, my appetite became good, and lo id produced
no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing,
and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease
had nearly all disappeared
I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night,
averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num
ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I
took about four doses a week, until 1 had taken about
thirteen hundred pills, when 1 found myself restored
to health. After l commenced the Hygeian, I took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I
was able to resume my studi s in college, where 1
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and if
my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I
have less pains, and am more free from temporary
sickness; than at any time since my earliest recollec
tion. Yours, with respect,
HORACE T. LOVE.
I)n II. Shbphkaiid Moat.
Dear Sir—1 wish to state that my sister, after severe
suffering, and employing a medical man three years,
was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her >s on
one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain
was a violent burning piin, almost intolerable; so see
vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three
years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers <» If, and
perhaps, over exertion with it. After using a few,
doses of No. 1 and 2, alternately, about eight pills for
a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is now restored to health; and I have
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours tmly,
II. 1)Y EH.
I.owell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1334.
In justice to Dr. M,,. her medical adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, he recommended
perse verence in the use of he medicines.
This valuable Medicine, being composed only of
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted,
on oath, as containing not one particle of mercurial,
mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which arc un
congenial to the nature ol man, and therefore destiue
tive to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly
harmless lo the most tender age or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pl asant
and benign in it- operation, and at the same time the
most searching out the root of every complaint, how
ever deep, and of perfuming a cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful efTect, too, is
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called a fe w extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or
exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the tear of
catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way
different from their accustom> d habits.
These pills cure till cases, and cannot be taken to
excess. Experience, which is the touchstone of all
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the
fact; and extensive use of them has already verified
its truth in this country.
These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak,
the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are
in a few days strengthened by their operation, because
they clear the body of its ba i humours, and invariably
procure sound sleep- They are the safest and most
efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy,
costiveness, &c,
The Vegetable Cleansing I’owders are of great as
sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of
bad humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the
acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst.
One, two, or three powders may be taken throughout
the day, mixed in half a wine glass of water.

The following extract is published by Dr. Lee’s au
thority, viz.—
Rai.tim ire, August, 1828.
Doctor S. H. I*. I.F.F., New London, Conn.
Dear Sir -It is now upwards of twenty years that I j
h ive used your New London IMi his Pills in my fami - |
ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al- :
most every description of disease, and believe they si»
ved many a long doctor’s bill by tiietr early and timely ;
use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary j
in their operation and eiiecls until a fe.v months past;
and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve- j
ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you !
had made your fortune, an 1 abandoned their mxnufac- !
ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this 1
impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of !
yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious j
imitations from your own manufacture, by having your j
WRITTEN SKiN’A TURK to each bill of directions,!
and that in no instance were the imitations signed with |
pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every oilier ,
respact. Finding tiiose l had without this test, I be- !
gan to suspect that “ all was not fair in medicine, as |
well as ih politics, and called at several of our apothe- j
caries for your pills, with your written Signature. I j
found many without this test, but none with it, until 1 !
came to the Messrs ICeerls’, who assured me they had
them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using !
them, found the same effects from them 1 had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my j
se< fin ssposseton of a medicine I so highly prize, that :
that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this
information.
(Xj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has j
only to examine the bill of directions covering each;
box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im- j
mediately under my printed name, they are genuine,
and prepared by me; but if oslt the printed name is
affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT
MENT, (formerly Judkins'.)
i When I first mule and prepared this Ointment, an !
1 had, in several instances, experienced its good effects,
I l sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what
' cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Mint*
j ment would be a valuable public benefit. ! concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fall in'o many
hands, some of whom would probably undertake to
| make it, and knowing die difficulty of the process-ne
vertheless. it might be progated in this adulterated si.
l tua'ion, as it might in some degree resemble the origi
nal —aiul in this way its good effects would be oblitera
ted under these considerations, I secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate disease*,
some of which have so long bafflcJ the skill ofme
' dical science:
1st White swelling* of every description;
21 Sore legs and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularly those
' hardened tumors in w un-u’s breast*, which oftentimes
terminate in ulceiated cancers;
4lh Felons; or what some people know by the name
of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic pains ol'tlte joints;
6ih Sprains aucl bruises of every description, or io
I whatever prrt situate;
| 7tli Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint the p»*
! tic-nt, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
! outof water;
3th (Ihilblainsor partsafTected by frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for burns and
scalds. It cases the pain and draws the fire out in a
short time.
For inflamed women's breasts and glandular swel
lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the
medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap
plications, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of
any preparation of the mineral,) because it does not
lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold.
This oimmenl has cured sores of many years stand
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the
external sure, in consequence of the hones becoming
carious oi rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries,
incret.se the quantity of discharge, remove the offen
sive smell, and ease the pains.
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica
tion of forty-eight hours.

Sir—My son having been afflicted for five years
with white swelling, and having applied every reme
dy recommended by the most eminent physicians
within my reach without success, I at length procured
one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment, and
made the application according to the directions sc
companying the ointment, and slate, for the benefit
of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected. My son lias enjoyed good health
ever since. I have no doubt tbit to the Ointment alone
he is indebted; for nothing else was used for more
than nine months before the application of the Oint
ment. Respectfully, John (Joixk

Mr. C Uerstons -I deem it proper to state, for the
benefit of the public, that, several years since, two
my children were affected with scald hea l of an inve
terate character. My family physician, Dr John T.
Wilson, of Leesburg, Va. who was very skilful and ju
dicious in his practice, m vain endeavored by every
me ins to effect a cure- At length Judkins' Ointment
was applied, and the affection was permanently reliev
ed. Very respectfully, vour obedient servant,
L. P. W. IIaich.
From the Honorable John Pali aferr o, Member of Con

SiR—It h is been my wish, tor a considerable tune,
to communicate to you the good effect with which l
have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins,
and which I now understand is nuJe anil sold by
agents appointed by yourself, 1 h ive applied this
Ointment during the last three years to every specie*
of tumor and wound, without failure to produce « cure
in every instance. I consider it the must decided and
efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause
wh itit may; and 1 have found nothing so good fur
wounds of any description It may be proper to
add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling,
given over by the most distinguished physicians as 'n*
curable, and which th .*y decided would, withoutamp'i*
tation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under r.y imme
diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins’ () utm .» >
and the patient is in fine health llislimb affected >)’
the tumor being restored to a perfect state ol suunJ*
ness. Also that the leg of an aged man wind, bad been
wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur
face from the knee to the foot, and which, for m»re
than two years, had been considered incurable, wssel
factually cured by the application of Judtins’
ment. I mention these two cases, which fell under my
immediate notice and management, as a decided evi
dence of the efficacy of this remedy incases of turner
and ofulccrsi I have expe icuccd, as decidedly, ’b*
good effect ofthis remedy in the cure of Felons, anil
ofevtrv species of fresh wound. It seems to me tbs’
any one wiio wll observe on tlie operation of this Oint
ment, must be s.itisfieJ as to its beneficial effect !ca_n
with the utmost confidence recommend the use oltbi*
valuable remedy. Iain, sir, very respectfully,
