A Voice from Virginia.

CAoIN PoiNT, Surry Co., Va.--Dr. Seth
8. Hance IL was in Baltimore in April,
1854, and from paper received of yours
was induced 70 buy a box of your pills,
recommended as sovereign cure for the
Epileptic Fits. At that time one of my
servants had been afflicted with fits about
twelve years. Wheu reaching home,
commenced with the pills according to d.
tections. l do not think she has had one
since. My wife, though, is somewhat in
duced to believe she may have had one only.
Enclosed you will find FIVE dollars, for
which you will please forward me two box
es. suppose you can forward them by
mail. Your compliance will oblige me.
Yours respectfully, NJ. p. SLEDoE.
DR.. Hance's Epileptic Pills are also
sovereign remedy for every modification OF
nervous diseases. The nervous sufferer,
whether tormented bv the acute, physical
agony Of neuralgia, ticdoloreux, or ordina-
ry headache, afflicted with vngue terrors,
weakened by periodical fits, threatened
with paralysis, borne down and dispirited
by that terrible lassitude which proceeds
from lack of nervous energy. or expert
encing any other pain of disubiity arising
from the unnatural condition of the won
deriul machinery which connects every
member with the source of sensation, mo-
ton and thouglt-derives immediate ben
eft from the use Of those pills, which al
once calms, invigorates, and regulates the
shattered nervous organization.
