HYGEIANISM.
THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy ]
of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
our diseases, speak io a language which must carry
conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:—
Bbown University, Dec. 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
Eels me, in compliance with your request, to give a
rief statement of» 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 may be explicitly under
stood, I state, in connexion with the relation of the
cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep- J
tember, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on
my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week,
with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining
my health; when, after about three weeks, in the
course qf the night, having returned the evening be
fore in usual health. I found myself bleeding at the
lungs. I had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt
or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut
ed. I spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left
me with aome 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 check the progress of the dis
ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But
rel'pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower
than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill,
and warn me of an approachfig dissolution. Thus,
months after the first attack, 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
unable to sit up a whole day, for four months and a
half. My feet were cold and lifeless, aleep 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, Jic. t*c. 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 increased the dose dai
ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten
(lays, my appetite became good, and fold 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 mgnt,
averaging about ten pills at a (lose; the greatest num
ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I
took about four doses a week, until I had taken about
thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored
to health. After I commenced the llvg<ian, 1 took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I
was able to resume my studis in college, where I
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease. Hitherto I 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. Y ours, with respect,
. HORACE T. LOVE.
Da H- Shiphiiid Moit.
Dear Sir—I 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 os on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see
vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three
years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers e 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 beisg made public Tor the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
H. DYER.
Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834.
In justice to l)r. M,, her medical adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, he recommended
perseverence in the use of be meJicines.
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 are un
congenial to the nature of man, and therefore destruc
live to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly
harmless to the most tender sge or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pi 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 perfoiming a cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or
exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear of
catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way
different from their accustomtd habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken 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
IIS iruui III kins uuuimjr.
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, beca ise
they clear the body of its ba l 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 Powders 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 genuine Medicines can be had of

Consumption!
Asthma! X Catarrh!
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life? yet ;his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar
rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffl-s the
sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption. Improper neglect in the timely adminis
tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
symptoms—oppression of the breast; greenish and
bloody spittle? ulcerated lungs and hectic fever? shri
veiled extremeties, and general emaciation of the
whole body; prostration of strength? flushed cheeks?
swollen feet ami legs? and at last, in the full posses
sion of the mental faculties, an-J while hope still whis
per* her flattering tale—rold ext:entities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
most approved remedies ever yet discovered is

innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been far ad vane

As the Fills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they may be administered with confidence and
safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled
success has hitherto attended their administration in a
great variety of cases? amt the proprietor can refer to

Medicine, direct from Ur. Lee’s Dispensary
12th mo30th, t83>. 'V. STABLER.
The following extract is published by Dr. Lee’s au
thority, viz:—
Baltimore, August, 1828.
Doctor S. II. P. Lee, New London, Uonn.
Dear Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that I ;
have used your New London Bdious Bills in my fa mi- I
ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al- j
most everv description of disease, and oeheve they sa«
ved many a long doctor’s bill by their early and timely
use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary j
in their operation and effects untd a lev months past; ;
and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve- 1
ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you j
bad made your fortune, and abandoned their inanufac- |
turc to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under th.s
impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of
yours in a New Tort newspaper, designating spurious
imitations from your own manufacture, by having your
WRITTEN SlliNA TURK to each hill of directions,
and that in no instance were the imitations signed with
pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other
respact. Finding those I had without this test, I be- !
gan to suspect that •* all was not lair in medicine, as
well as ir politics, and called at several of our apotlie- \
caries for your pills, with your written signature. I
found mtuy without this test, but none witn R, until I
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 I had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my
se* fin ssposseion of a medicine I so Highly prize, that
that 1 cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this
information.
Jj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has
only to examine the billot directions covering each
box, anil if signed at foot, in my uwn handwriting, im
mediately tinder my printed name, they are genuine,
and prepared by me; but it oxlt the printed name is
affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.

The public will be pleased to understand that I *u
the original discoverer of Judkins’ Ointment, an)
sole proprietor of the patent from September. 1817,
until the expiration of the same; but, having connect,
ed myself with Or. Judkins in the commencement,!
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The ter*
of the patent hiving expired on the 25tli June, l hare
made an improvement in the same, and taken nut a pi
tent thereon. N- SHBI’HKKD. .
jj* Imposition having been practised upon the nub
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of " J,tJ.
kins'Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself of the
authority granted to him in Ins letter* patent, now tu
cill the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it
will be known by the name of
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT
.MEN F, (formerly Judkins'.)
When I first made and prepared this Ointment, an)
had, in several instances, experienced its good effect*,
I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in whit
cases to apply it, who were of opinion tlut tiie Oint
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I Concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fill into rnw
hands, some of whom would probably undertake la
make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process-ne
vertheless. it might be progated in tins a lulttri e J n.
Illation, as it might in some degree resemble the nrigi.
n»!—and in this way it* good effects would be oblitera
ted Under these consideration*, I secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate disease*,
some of which have so long baffled the skill of me

2d Sore less and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particoUrlythnie
hardened tumors in women’s breasts, which ofientimei
terminate in ulcetatcd cancers;
4th Felons; or what some people know by themmr
of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic pains of the joints;
6th Sprains ami bruises of every description, or in
whatever part situate;
7th Tetters of allkinds. In this complaint the pi*
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
out of water;
8th ChilblainsorpartsafTected by frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for burns and
scalds. It eases the pain and draw’s the fire out in i
short time.
For inflamed women’s breasts and glandulir 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 Ointment has cured sores of many years stand
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the
external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious oi rotten.it will stop the progress of the carie*,
increase the quantity of discharge, remove the offen
sive smell, and ease the pains.
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applici*
tion of forty-eight hours

Sir—My son having been afflicted for five \ttet j
with white swelling, and having applied every reme
dy recommended by the most eminent physician*
within my reach without success, I at length procured
one jug of Dr Judkins’ Patent Specific Ointment, and
made the application according to the direction* *c
cornpanving the ointment, antistate, for the benefit
of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected. Mv son lias enjoyed good health
ever since. I have no doubt that to the Oinlment slone
fie is indebted; for nothing else was used for m,ire
than nine months before the application of the <>*f*t»
ment. Respectfully, Juhx Cotxi

Wilson, of Leesburg, Va who was very skilful and ju
dicious in his practice, in vain endeavored by every
means to effect a cure. At length Ju Ikirts’ Ointment
was applied, and the affection was permanently rche*’

agents appointed by yourself, I have applied tW

efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the c»u»*
wliatit may; and l have found nothing so good

add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelli*Ji
given over by the most distinguished physicians a* M*
curable, and which th :y decided would, without amp'3,
tation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under niy imint'
diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins’ Ointment,
and the patient is in fine health- Hialimb affected 6y
