CONSUMPTION CURED BY PARR'S
LIFE PILLS.
" To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.
" Gentlemen,—l feel it a duty I owe to you and to the
public at large, to acknowledge the astonishing benefit I have
received from taking Parr's Life Pills. I was for nearly nine
years a soldier in the 52d Regiment of Foot, and was discharged
in October, 1839, in consequence of ill health (being deemed
consumptive), after having the best advice her Majesty's ser-
vice afforded. I returned to my native town, feeling that my
days could not be long on earth. But by what almost appears
an interposition of Providence, my attention was directed to
Old Parr's Pills, and by taking only two 2s. 9d. boxes, I was
completely cured, and am thus a living monument to the good
effected by this most valuable Medicine. Within the last few
days I have beers on a visit to some of my friends in a neigh-
bouring village, where I was told that "it was like seeing one
risen from the dead, to see me walking through their streets."
I have recommended them to my neighbours, and many of them
have experienced very great benefit from their use.
" I am, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant,

"JOHN OSBOIiNE,

" Witness—James Burgess, Bookseller, Sic., Hinckley."
Mr. John Osborne's case was pronounced by the regimental
doctors to be incurable consumption. By the aid of this won •
derful medicine he is now so hearty and active as to be enabled
to travel on foot, since the date of his recovery, upwards o"
1,2U0 miles.

:ISONNET.
To the Memory of OLD PARR, written on the discovery of
his last Will and Testament, in which is contained the method
of preparing his infallible medicine, for conquering disease,
and prolonging human life.
0, venerable Parr, 10, trumpet fame
Again calls forth thy long-forgotten name ;
Mortal of many years ! how blest the plan
Thy mighty secret does reveal to man.
From this auspicious hour shall evil cease,
Mourning to joy shall turn,—discord to peace.
Thy benign remedy to man gives power
To lengthen out on earth his " little hour,"
Disease to conquer, anguish drive away,
And sickly sorrow change to joyous day ;
Despair to banish from the dying man,
A God-like gift! odo not lightly scan
A boon so great, nor wisdom's purpose mar;
God gave the power—his instrument was Parr.
The above lines were written by a Lady near Nottingham,
who had been cured of a grievous malady by Parr's Life Pills ;
gratitude induced her to cause their insertion in the " Notting-
ham Review," and other newspapers.
