DYSPEPSIA CURED.

DENNINGTONs W. OeC Ctn, lo4J
Dear Sir 81 wish to add mytestimony to the host
of others that you have in favor of your valuable pills
In the yeaI 1885, 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
could 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 this, should
have been in my grave, had not fell in with your
precious medicine. A friend Of mine, who had been
sick Of the same 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 sollcl
tation, l procured box and commenced taking
them.
Thelfrst box producedttle 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 beganto be
less painful and my food did not distress me so much
as formerly. went on taking them until had taken
six boxes, and my Dyspepsia was GONE, and my ex-
pectaton of early death vanished, and telt IKE
"new creature" l was then, and am now
healthy man. have never since been troubled with
the Dyspepsia. have administered your pills to the
members ofmy family, and to my friends, and IN all
