WASHINGTON, Mar, h %, 1926
&r-My son having been afflicted tor hive years
with white swelling, and having applied every RENE
DIV recommended by the most eminent physicians
within nv reach without success, at length procured
one Jug Of DR. Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment. and
made the application according to the directions &C.
companving the ointment, and state, for the benefit
of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health
ever since. have no doubt that to the Ointment alone
he is indebted, for nothing else was used for more
than nine months before the application of the Oint.
