Most people know that skins and hides are convert

When the force and strength of the Tannn is worn

covered with crust, &c. THIS ALL KNOW. To re-
store then life, softness, moistness strength SMOOTH
ness, and ramove all crust fly blister-restore the
tannn This substance the leather never can receive
the second tme but the whole virtues of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN--which pence
traes the stest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it imparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful softness and polish
and makes all leather completely and perfectly inn
pervous to waterparticularly boots, shoes, carri-
age-tops, harness, hose trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish even high

is used THESE ARE FACTS.

BENNINGTON VT. Dec. 5th, lSi3
Dear Sir III wish to add my testimony to the host
of others that you have favor of your valuable pills
In the yeal 1888, was attacked with that disagree
able complaint the Dyspepsia, which SO affected me
that could not take particle of food without the
most unpleasant and uncomfortable sensations in my
chest, head and bowels. My chest was SO sore that
coud not bear the slightest pressure without giving
me pain MY health was most miserable; many
physicians told they thought was in the consump-
ton, and that if did not give up my business and
change climate, could live but short time.
tried every thing in the shape of medicine, and
consulted the most skilful physicians, but found no
permanent relief became discouraged, gloomy,
sad, and sick of life and probably, ere this, should
have been in my grave, had l not fell in with your
precious medicine. A friend of mine, who had been
sick Of the complaint, advised me to try your
pills but having tried most other medicines without
obtaining any relief had but little faith that your pills
would be of benefit to but at his earnest solicit
tation, l procured box and commenced taking
them.
The7frst box produced[litte or no effect, and be-
gan to despond, for fear that your medicine would
prove like others have taken but my friends argued
that one was not fair trial, and purchased sec
ond, and before had taken the whole box began to
experience change the pain in my chest began to be
less painful and my food did not distress me 50 much
as formerly went on taking them until had taken
six boxes, and my Dyspepsia was GONE, and my ex-
pectaon of an early death vanished, and felt like
q ssnew creature" | was then, and am now a
healthy man. have never since been troubled with
the Dyspepsia have administered your pills to the
