OLD AND RELIABLE REMEDIES. :
Among the Oldest and most reliable, as
well as most popular remedies known to
the science and practice of medicine is
Pages Climax Salve and Moftats Life
Pills and Phoenix Bitters The last named
of these medicines have been before the
public for the last thirty or forty years, and
boast of thousands of truly wonderful
cures, while no less wonderful are the per-
| tormances Of Pages celebrated Salye, as
may be seen by the following testimonial
from the inventor, Mr.. Page, of Geneva
n Y, who is one of those true and per-
fectly reliable men and who was himself
the patient using the preparation, Mr..
Page says:
will state briefly what il has done, and
sincerely pledge myself b. make no false
statements of its efficancy which facts will
not warrant 1t was my ltt to inherit the
scrotula from my parents and many of
my family relatives had died with it, and
from my first remembrance | have been
more or less afflicted with scrotula sores.
In the spring of 1889, it appeared to leave
the rest Ot my system, AMI concentrate on
my left arm. There was tumor, in the
first place, about the size Of a hens egg
it soon liberated, and put myself under
the care of as good a physician as there is
IN the State, but the disease appeared to
get the upper hand, and Notwithstanding
all that he could do, it spread frightfully,
and In about three months another tumor
appeared above the elbow about the same
as the first and soon became an open ulcer
which appeared to spread every day, until
the spring Of 1912 Mo- receiving any
benefit from the profesSM or anything
else, thought | would try some of the
patent medicines of the day They did
me no good. | then gave up trying, for |
had spent all my means, and found my sores
spreading every day, and nv general health
declining rapidly. / had forest my arm on
cushion and had not been able to raise nv
head for more than a year and the dis !
charge from two ulcers wa nearly pint
day, The cords and flesh were eaten off
my arm, in two places D. large as my
hand. | had given up all hopes of being
cured, and called a counei IF physicians 10
consult about amputating ny arm. Their +
decision was, that the diSharge was 81 .
great, that if the arm wa taken off the
ulcer would form on the stump, and if it
did, | could live but little while. A few
days after, friend called On me, with an
English physician, who had had charge of
an hospital for nearly fory years in the
DID Country, of whom / purchased the
receipt TO make the CLIMAX SALyE, .
with which alone, he told me- he had cur
ed more than one hundre cases of Scrofu-
la IN year. | eomnleled using this
salFe, my sores commenced healing. and
my general health inprb7ed fast. At the
end Of six months the Ulcers were all
healed, and my health gid. During the
time | was using the Sa.re, | took no
medicine except mild tathartic every
two or three weeks was told by some
learned in the professiH, that it was
dangerous to heal up such large ulcers
with an external apphcation for if | did
II would break out somewhere else, or
drive it to the internal -gans. But dj-
rectIy the reverse was IL effect 1t has
been nearly five years sine the sores on
my arms were healed, an have not had
Scrotula sore, nor the appearance Of any
on me to this day, and my health has
improved ever since. It is. therefore.
from sense of duty to myself, to the
suffering and love to humanity, that am
induced to offer and recommend this
Salve The many unprecedented cures it
has performed on others mas caused such
a demand for it, that / have at last been
induced 10 manufacture on a more ex-
tenslve scale, and introduce it into general ]
use ]. NJ PAGE.
