be afflicted with similar disease

with fever, attended with considerable cough; my

me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap

A few weeks determined that was in decline.
received the attention of the most skfu Physicians,
who often seemed to check the progress of the dis

relapse upon relapse, and each bringing me lover

days, my appetite became good and food produced
no distress, sleep became sound and refreshing,
and in about forty days the symptoms Of the disease
had nearly all disappeared.

took about four doses week, until had taken abou

no other medicine. One year from the first attack,

Dear Sr wish to state that my sister, after severe
was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
Her complaint violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, TO use her own expression, her IS
one side had turned in, actually deforned The pain
was violent burning pain, almost intoerable; so
vere that she could not sit up for upwards of three
years. 1t was occasoned by overacing hers If, and
perhaps, over excrtion with it. After using few,
doses of No. and g. alternately, about eight pills for
dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is now restored to health; and have
no objection to this being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly.

harmless to the most tender age weakest frame,

and benign in it operation and at the time the
most searching out the root of every complaint how
deep, and Of performing cure, that was ever
offered to the world This wonderful effect, too is
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing certain number OF small pills. and
being called few extra times TO the purposes of eva
cuaton with the least possible sensation of pain or
