Mr.. " Sloan-Deur Sir: hereby certify
that my son Albert, eleven years Of age, was
afflicted IN his feet from the time lie first be.
gan to walk, the bottoms of which were COW
cred with hard dry skin, full Of acks, caus-
ing pain and much aff1iction, many times he
was obliged to go on his hands and knees, and
no time has he been free from the sore afflic-
ton until now. Battling the skill of several
physicians, but to our surprise his feet are now
perfectly SMOOTH soft and free from era cks,
all from one application of your Ointment l
would say the boy put 1t on himself as an expe-
riment of his own, from hearing it recommcnd-
ed. Nothing more was thought of it for three

in healthy state, and are now the same as
though they never had been otherwise.
