HIDEBOUND, &c, &c.. Hundreds can testify to their efficacy. See testimonials below. GOSTLING'S
CONDITION BALLS are, moreover, most useful for Cattle. Bullocks thrive faster and "do " better with an

Dear Sir, 870trallitIMIN, 24th Sept. 1674.
I have used your Cough and Condition Balls for the last eight or nine years, and I never found anything to equal
them. My horses are always healthy and workable. I can confidently recommend them to any as. keeping
horses. Your' failbiallY, MOOD; DERLST.
From MORT WiLLII, Esq., Auctioneer aid Estate Agent, Master of the 11r03 Hounds, White House, Ossold,
Lye.—" I have used your Cough aRA Condition Balls rather extensively the last year, and have been perfectly
satisfied with the results."
Oetober 6th. 1874.
&BUM MOBNIRLBY, Jan., Bat., Coalboura Cottage, Stourbridge, writes, Oct. And, 1874.—" Having used your
Cough and Condition Balls for several years, I cannotisay too much in their favour ; and consider them superior to
any I have hitherts used."
Prom Mr. Jong VOMIT, Trainer ad Proprietor of Horses, Spigot Lodge, Middleham, Yorkshire.—" I have much
pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of Gostling's Conditions Balls for Horses. I have used them for some time,
and highly approve of them, and consider them as good or atsperior to any I have hitherto used."
Testimonials have also been received from the following Trainers :—Mr. Thomas Stevens, Mr. Samuel Rogers,
Mr. W. Abdale, Mr. P. Price, Mr. W. Goodwin, Mr. Thunas Brown, jun., and Mr. W. Reeve.
Mr. JAMIIII Younosux, of Wattisfield, Suffolk.—" I have found your Condition Balls very useful for several of
the purposes for which you recommend them, but I consider them especially valuable for cases of loss of appetite,
and the slight disorders to which high•fed Cattle, as well as Cows and Horses, ate frequently subject. They cer-
tainly meet a great want, and are calculated to prevent what has often been no better than throwing away good food,
because not given to animals in • thriving condition."
