DE-. G. W. HALsEY: Dear Sir-Your Forest
Wine and Pills have cured my wife of a dread.
full Nervous disorder, with which she had been
affected for many years. Her body was almost
wasted away. She was frequently disturbed
in her sleep by frightful dreams, awakening
quite exhausted and covered with perspiration,
and at times laboring under the delusion that
something dreadful was about to happen to
her. By the use of four bottles of the Wine,
and box of the Pills. she is now in perfect
health. She has regained her flesh and color,
and enjoys society as well as ever.
