about two weeks, frequently lasting "a hours,
during which time the paroNysns have been so
severe, as apparently soon to deprive her of life
And after having tried almost all other remedies
in vain, | have been induced as a last resort to
try Spohn's Headache Remedy, as sold by YOU
and to the great disappointment and 10Y of her
self and all her friends, found very material relief
from the first dose of the medicine. She has fol-
lowed up the directions with the article, and in
every case when an attack was threatened, has
found immediate relief, until she is near perma-
nently cured. The attacks are now very seldom
and disappear almost Immediately after taking
the quantity directed. a hope that others may
be benefited by the use of this truly invaluable
medicine, has induced me TO send you tho above,

clcacous remedy for those complaints for which

OF inllamed eyes, in some of which its effects as
curative have been decided, and in 10 case has it
failed of giving relief where 1t has been applied
according TO directions, and all who have used il
are perfectly satisfied with it so Gar as know.
have also applied it in some severe case olaguc
in the breast with the happest effects.
! would also relate the case OF Mr. Thomas
Logan, who has been afflicted with the rhcuma-
tisn in one hip for thirteen years, so tina; nc had
been compelled to abandon labor in great mea-
sure | let him have box OF the rlasler he
applied it, and for three days found, as he sup
posed no benefit, but after that he perceived that
the pain was not so severe, and in less than two
weeks he could labor hard all day and rest free
from pain at night. lie says he would not part
with the box he has for three hundred dollars
providing he could not obtain another. He also
