the 2lst of March last, had been nine years =

pleasant sensations. At various times I'VE
different physicians had attended me- each onS

another well day, and when called at your
consultation rooms, had very little hope Of re-
lief. BY your advise, entered Immediately

aged by the cheerful, hopeful way in which
you spoke, aud | resolved strictly to follow
your direction. In less than a week, all tho
worst symptoms of my complaint began to
take milder form, and SO continued to jin-
prove from week to week until, at the end Of
three monIhs, my heau was entirety feifeveus
and every trace Of the catarrh had left me-.

dies for nearly six weeks longer, becausel
found they were building up my strength and

passed since the cure was finished, and have
