THE
Great King Of Pain.
The Greatest Medical Discovery
OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY,

Prof. FRENCH, of Staunton has taken a room
on New street, were citizens are requested to
call and see certificates of cures of nervous and
chrome cases, some of which wese considered In
durable. There is not pain or ache, pervous or
iniiammatory, but that the King of Pain will re-
lieye, and in most instances, entirely cure He
have healed, with the King of Pain, the worst ca
scs Of Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, the most
painful Neuralgia, the longest and worst cases Of
sore Eyes, some of the most violent and threaten
ing forms of Heart Disease, hundred of cases Of
spinal Disorders, so common among women and
SO distressing and exhausting. OF that terribly
common cause of suffering in America-Livcr
complaint and Indigestion or Dyspepsia, Iwould
only ask trial.
Read the following certificates.
