AFFLICTIoN- CHRONIC DIsEAsE-The read
ers of the Advocate VIII see bY notice in to-
days paper that DIR. Mortimore has arrived in
our city. We have often referred to the emi-
nent success Of DIR. NJ, who makes his annual
visit to our city, in curing chronic diseases.
lHls, however, seems scarcely necessary now,
as he is so universally and favorably known
throughout the South. But referring to his
notfcein our columns we find the highest pos
sible testimonial from Rev. DR.. Rivers, Presi-
dent OF Wesleyan University, Florence, Ala, a
man than whom none other is more generally
known and beloved. This. together with the
other testimonials presented, we think should
convince the most increduous of DR.. Morti-
more's professional skill.-New Orleans Chris

words through the counins or y0tII ,vi,isl > cir
culated paper IN reference to DIR. MortimOre's
treatment of my wife's case. DR.. NJ. first pre-
scribed for her in September last. He found
her at the crisis of a complication of chronic
diseases, and that crisis about to turn against
her She had not been able 90 out CT the house
for more than six months, and had been a con-
tirned invalid for more than eight years. But
by s6illful treatment of Dr. NJ. am now happy
TO say she Is able to walk all over the city, and
81 more fieshy than she has ever been in her
life. When DIR. NJ. first saw her, she was a
mere skeleton, not weighing so much as eighty
pounds, buknow one hundred and five pounds.
We both together, with our friends, shall ever
feel grateful for the eminent skill possessed by
our benefactor.
Wewould say to the afflicted, 90 to DIR. Nor

can. If he says he can, you may rely on him
To say he can cure all and every one who NAV
