"5, Albion-road, Stoke Newington grgra, 6th Feb., 1847, " Sir,—With much pleasure I acquairrit you with the benefit that I have derived by taking Blaiy.PiPills. " On my journey Ave weeksfilfce, while at Chepstow, I had distressing symptoms of an i uftack of Gout in one foot, and with the utmost difficulty., reached Bristol. By this time the disease had so much increased that I could not place my foot on the floor, the swelling being extensive and the pain excru ciating. Having often heard of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, I immediately sent to Messrs. Ferris and Score, Chemists, Bristol, for a box, which when I had taken, the pain had wholly subsided. I continued the pills until I had taken two-and-a half boxes more, when to my gratification I was perfectly re stored to health, and able to resume my journey. " I respectfully assure you that I shall recommend this va luable medicine to the fullest extent in my power, and never while travelling shall I in future be without it. During my illness my residence was at Mrs. Slocombe's, Greyhound Inn, Broadmearl, Bristol, whose family, if requisite, will confirm the facts I have stated. _ . " I forward my case to you for publication, that the afflicted may be assured of and obtain relief. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, " THOMAS YATES, " Traveller to Messrs. Day and Martin, " 97. High Holborn, London. "To Mr. Prout. 229, Strand, London." The efficacy of Blair's. Gout and Rheumatic Pills is now uni versally acknowledged, and for the class of diseases known as Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Tic Doleroux, and all analogous complaints, comment isunnecessary. The continued series of testimonials, of such indisputable authority.as the above, renders this•one the most popular medicine of the pre sent age.
