The professor thinks that the cause of the ill success in profiiably coking these coals "is to be found not merrly in the dryness of thy coal, but even more in their very great shrinkage during the process, winch causes them to break up; and in the great density of the rt-suiling fragments which often look like pieces of a hard grey elate, require a high heat ni strong pressure of b!.et for ignition, and cause so muddy a smelling that the resulting le-sseB far outweigh any possible gain." i "A Drop of Joy ia Evrry Word." Flemixgto.v, Hunterdon Co., X. J., f June 26, 1 i74 . Dr. R. V. Fiekcs, ButTalo, N. Y.: Dear Sir It is with a happy heart ' ihal I pen tbe.e lines to acknowledge i: that you aud your Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative Pellets are ( blessings to the World. These medi ciues cannot be too highly praised, ' for they have almost brought me on; t of the grave. Tlirce months ago I f was broken out with Urge ulcers nd j sores on my body, limbs and face. I procured your Golden Mtdieal Discovery Dis-covery and Purga'ive Pellets, and have taken six bottles, a.,d io-d:iy lr am in good health, all those ugh ulcers having healed and left my.-ui J in a natural, healthy condition. Ii thought at one time I could not be L cured. Although I can but poorly ( express my gratitude to you, yt-t there is a drop of joy iu every word I write. God's blessing rest on you and I your wonderful medicines is the hum. : ble prayer of, yours truly, James 0. Belus. When a medicine will promptly cure euch terrible eating ulcers and free the blood of the virulent poison causing them, who can longer doubt . iu wonderful virtues? Dr. Pierre, however, doei not wish to place his Golden Medical Discovery iu thoc.ita logue of quack patent nostrums by recomnn nding it to cure every disease, dis-ease, nor does he so recommend it; but what ho does claim ia Uuh, that there is but one form of bfovd disease that it will not cure, and that dwease is cancer. He does not recommend his Discovery for that disease, yet he knows it to be the most searching blood cleanser yet discovered, and thai it will free the blood and system of all other known blood poisons, be they animal, vegetable or mineral. The Golden Discovery is warranted by him to cure the worst forms ol Skin Diseases, as all forms of Blotches Pimples and Eruptions, also all Glandular Glan-dular Swellings, and me worst form of Scrofulous and Ulcerated Sores ol Neck, Legs or other parts, and all Scrofulous Diseases of the Bouts, as While Swellings, Fever Sores, Hip Joint and Spinal Diseases, all ol which belong to Scrofulous diseases. u22 |
