BAD LEGS, AFTER 43 YEARS.
SUFFERING.
Extract Of a Letter from Mr. William GapihS
OF 10, St. Mary's Street, Weymouth, dated
May l5te, 1851.
To Professor Holloway,
S1R,-At the age of Is my wife (who
is now 6l) caught aviolen, cold, which
settled in her legs, and ever since that
;ime they have heen more or less sore,
aud greatly inf Her agonies were
distraclng, and for months together shc
was deprived entirely Of rest and sleep
Every remedy that medical men advised
was tried, but without effect; her health
suffered severely, ard the state of her
legs was terrible. had often readyour
Advertisements, and advised her to try
your Pills and Ointment; and, as last
resource, after every other remedy had
proved useless, she consented 10 do so.
She commenced six weeks ago, and
strange to relate, is now in good health.
Her legs are painless, without seam or
scar, and her sleep sound and unds-
lurbed. Could you have witnessed the
sulerings Of my wife during The last 48
years, and contrast them with her present
enjoyment Of health, you would indeed
feel delighted in having been the means,
Of so greatly alleviuling the sufferings of
a fellow creature. (Signed)

SIR, i suffered for period Of thirty

or three different accidents at Gas Works,
accompanied by scorbutic symptoms. l
had recourse to variety of medical
advice, without deriving any benefit, and
was even told that The leg must be am
putated, yet, in opposition TO that opinion,
your Pills aud Ointment have effected
complete cure IN so short time, that Jew
who had not witnessed it would credit
the fact. (Signed)

two of those unfortunate novels, one of
them being dark, damp, dirty, dusty,
dreary, under ground basement, the walls
of which are continually wet, and the floor
fast rotting from the effects of floods of
water that pour in every time it rains sit
uate light in the street, almost inaccessi-
BILE for mud, and nearly inhabitable when
occupied, and another school room still
smaller, but little better in any respects
and even worse in others; are the only
rooms occupied for our public schools
fortunately however only one of them is
owned by the Town-a matter of congrat-
ulation truly, as certainly, one such in.
cumbrance is sufficient. Here into these
unventilated novels, amid the dirt and
smoke and dust and bad air, with hardly
any seats of any kind and none that are
suitable, and with still less facilities fol
learning; places resembling more the
Black Hole Of Calcutta than school rooms
our children are slowed away like so ma
ny criminals, and expected to acquire an
education commensurate with their future
wants and liabilities
Surely it is time that we were building
large and commodious School House in
a central place with several rooms in il
sufficient for the whole Town, with High
School or Academical department attach
ed to it, and then with Corps of good
Teachers, we might expect to see oul
three hundred youth making some ad.
vancement in their studies.
