her, but could give no relief j took her 10 the most
eminent doctors in the East, they said there was no
help for her but to outgrow il. With a sad heart Ire
turned home with her, when. she became SO much
worse that the doctors had to be called in again; they
decided the tonsils must be cut off, as the only means
of giving relief. My wife would not consent TO this,
and she determined to try your liniment, which gave

use She entirely recovered. Shells now 10 years old,
