To DR.. L. J. Czapkay, San Francisco.
MARYSVILLE. June 3. |.


DR.. L. J. CzAPKAY, San Francisco-Sir:-I
have used the last of your medicine, and do not
think shall need any more, as feel very well,
except that have not entirely got my strength
yet, but soon will, with the appetite that have.
1t is just three weeks, you map recOllect since
called at your Institute, with my constitution as
l thought entirely broken, and never thought
you would be able to cure me perfectly, but thOt
you might be able to do something to ease the
pain in my back and head and strengthen my
limbs, which were 50 weak that they would al
most give way under me when | walked, and to
strengthen my nerves so that | would not get ex-
cited and tremble at every little thing. Now that
you know what l expected, you may Judge at nv
satisfaction at my complete recovery from those
symptoms, and the removal of those splotches
and sores from my skin, and the ulcers from nv
throat and the entire stoppage of those ennis
sions, which you said were principally the cause
of my sickness.
l can hardly tell you which is the greatest. nv
joy or my surprise, for except not having fully
got my strength, feel as well as any man can
feel.
Enclosed send you twenty dollars over YOUR
charge, and think myself cheaply cured. If YOU
think anybody will be benefited, you may put
this letter in the newspapers.
Believe me, gratefully yours.

DIX. w. a. ON DEh, OcullSt.
DR. W. A. SNYDER'S mode of treating disea-
4 ses of the Eye differs materially from the
course commonly pursued by Physicians Be-
lieving that most diseases of the Eye have their
origin in obstructed circulation or an impure
state of the system, his remedies will be pre-
scribed with reference to the disease with which
the patient may be afflicted and by equalizing
the circulation, removing obstruction and restor,
ing the general health of the patient, the Eyes
may be permanently cured wi Without the use of
general use DR.. s. would say to those who have
exhausted the skill of all others without relief
not to despair of a cure without giving him a
trial, for in all cases where vision is not entirely
lost, the Eye not completely disorganized there
is still hope.
