cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep

my lungs; was confined to my room about one week,
with fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon abated, and apparently, was reeaning
my health; when, after about three weeks, in the
course of the night having returned the evening be.

Dear Sir-I wish state that my sister, after severe
suffering and employing medical three years,
Her complaint was violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her expression, her IS on
side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was violent burning pain, almost ntoierable; see
we're, that she could not sit up for upwards Of three
years. 1t occasoned by over.lacing hers IT, and
perhaps, over exertion with it. After using few,
doses of No. and 3 alternately about eight pills for
dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is restored to health; and have
objection this case being made public for the
benefit Of others; and am dear sir, yours truly,

heard her improvement in health, he recommended
perseverance IN the use of he medicines. |

slsance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of
