side; indeed, TO use her expression, her IS on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was violent burning pain, almost ntolerable;

years. 1t was occasioned by over.scng hers IT, and
perhaps, overexertion with it. After using few,
doses OF No, and 2, alternately, about eight pills for
dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is restored to health; and have
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
