DEAR SIR-It becomes me at this time, to
express to God my gratitude for the means he
had made use OF, in restoring my long lost
health, by the use of a medicine called Pola.
delphis or India Extract. For the last five
years have been so grievously afflicted with
Rheumatism, that have at times almost wished
for death to relieve me from my suffering
seeing this medicine advertised, sent for
box, and do declare, that since have began
to use it have never felt pain, and am sure
that by continuing to use it for short time,
/ shall again enjoy my usual health, and be
able to support my family, as heretofore. In.
closed, send you three dollars, for two box
es, which you will please to pack up carefully,
and Mr.. Bemey will bring it safe to me. You
may tell the world it ismy opinion, that the
Poladelphis is the only medicine in the world,
that will cure the Rheumatism. With JOY and
gladness. Yours, WM G. MEYER.
