Another Inpalid restored to Health.

| Another InpGlid restored to Health.
Tread the falInwing statement offacts from Mr..
Eli Bailey, highly respectable merchant Of Wen
ma, Jnhnson county, Inos.l
Messrs Phelps s. BlakesIey, St Louis. Mo-,
Gentlemen--A desire to benefit the afflicted
throughout the land has alone induced me to make
the following statement Of facts respecting Of
the most astonishing cures severrecurded: My san
now seventeen years aid, has been afflicted during
his whole life with constant cough, pain in the
side and chest. accompanied with night sweats and
hectic fever, which produced great emacatipn
and debility: and at intervals during the night his
expectorahon would become so great as to endan-
ger his life from srangulation. During this time
he was attended by many physicians the highest
repute, whose prescriptions gave but temporary
relief in fact, SO alarming were the SYMPTOMS, and
so inyeterate was his disease, than I was compel
led to believe him beyond the reach Of medical
aid
All Dur neighbours who saw him, regarded him
as one who was rapidly approaching an early and
premature grave. After having thus exhausted
theIskill of pur best physicians without obtaining
relief, was prevailed upon by the advice pf a
friend to make use of WIstw's Balsam OF Wild
Cherry.
He commenced its use about the Both Of Decem-
Der, 1874, the first bottle of which gave astonish
ing relief, and begun again to indulge in the
fond hope that he might yet be restored to health
After having continued the use of it until three
bottles had peen taken, the disease was entirely
overcome, and his shattered constitution and
emaciated form restored to sound and permanent
health, which he continues to enjoy up to the pre-
sent time.
believe the geniiss, DR.. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry, to be one of the most valuable me-
dicines ever discUvered-knowing, as do, that
the above cure was effected solely by its use.
am, gentlemen, very respectfully,
Your most obedient servant
April 9. 1916. ELI BAILEY
0o-Cures similar to the above are constantly
being performed in all parts of the country, and
we should indeed be destitute of all feelings Of
humanity, did we not call upon all who are afilct-
ed with pulmonary diseases to resort at once to
the use of this, the only remedy that be relied
upon for cure. .H

The .4,nericm Farmer has now been in ex-
istenee since 1919, and was the first periodical
ever published in the U. States, devoted exclu-
sively 10 the interests of the cultivators of the
soil-many similar works have since sprung
into existence, and have passed away, whilst
the pioneer in the good cause has steadily pur-
sued It's way, and in IFS ripe old age, evinces
ali the freshness and vigor OF youth. The pub
Usher feels conscious, that his numerous pa
irons will bear him out in the assertion, that at
no stage Of its existence has his journal been
received with more favor than at the present
time. Gentlemen Of the highest standing, and
eminent for their zeal and devotion TO their
time. honored calling, who have been subscri-
bers to the work since its first appearance to
the present time, (and we have number of
them still on our list,) have but recently borne
testimony TO the fact, that 1t is moi excelled in
point of practical utility by any of the numer-
Gus journals with which our country now
abounds. Whilst these assurances are fatter-
