DEAR SIR: Allow me to express to you my sincere
thanks for your discovery of medicine which, to say

icines that have taken have entirely failed to do.
Hollands German Btters have cured me of the most
stubborn and aggravated Of the Piles that per-
haps ever fell to the lot Of man. My case ia not
stranger in this community l am well known in
this and the surrounding counties and truly say
that my recovery has astounded all my friends and
relations as had tried everything recommended,
and nothing did me any good until was prevailed
upon TO try the Bitters. You at liberty to make
any Of this communication, for the be eft of the
afflicted, you may think proper.
Truly, yours, WIN. j. ATWOOD.
