THIS testimony, and there is no doubt about

NATICk, Mass, Jan. |, 1874
MIR. II. r. STEVENS:
Dear Strive have good reason for regarding
your vEGETINE n medicine OF the greatest
value. We feel assured that II has been the
means OF saving our sons life lie Is now
seventeen years OF age; for the last two years
he has suffered from necrosis OF his leg, caused
by scrofulouS affection, and was so far reduced
that nearly all who saw him though his re
coyery impossible. A council OF able physicians
could give us but the faintest hope of his ever
rallying, two OF the number declaring that he
was beyond the reach OF human remedies, that
even amputation could not save him, as he had
not vigor enough to endure the operation. Just
then we commenced giving him NEGETlNE,
and from that time TO the present he has been
continuously improving. He has lately resum-
ed his studies, thrown away crutcheS and cane,
and walks about cheerfully and strong.
Though there is still some discharge from the
opening where the limb was lanced, we have
the fullest confidence that in little time he
will be perfectly cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles OF
yEGETINE. but lately uses but little, as he de-
clares that he is TOO well TO be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
L. S. BEST,
MRS. L. Z. r. BEST.

The Tired Body Sues for Sleep.

II r. STEVENS Esq:
Dear Sir-It is as much from n sense OF duty
as OF gratitude that / write to say your VEG T.
TINE-even If 1t Is patent medicine-has been
OF great help TO Inc when nothing else seemed
to avail which could safely use. Either ex-
cessve mental work or unusual care brings
upon me a nervous exhaustion that desperately
needs sleep but rs desperately detes It. Night
after night the poor, tired body sues for sleep
until the day-dawn Is welcomed back, and we
begin our work tired out with an almost fruit
less chase after rest. Now have found that a
little vEGETINE taken just before retire gives
me sweet and Immediate sleep, and without
any Of the evil effects OF the usual narcotics. /
think two things would tend to make brain
workers sleep. ist-A little less work. 2d--A
little more vEGETINE. This prescription has
helped me.
Now have n particular horror OF "patent
medicine" but have Il greater horror OF being
afraid to tell the straight out truth. The VICE.
TINE has helped me, and own IL up.

Thrce Points for confederation.

During the past five years the vEGETINE
has been steadily working itself into public
favor, and those who were at first most incredu-
lous In regard to its merits are now Its most ar
dent friends and supporters.
There are three essential causes for those
having such Il horror OF patent medicines,
changing their opinion and lending their In.
fiuence toward the advancement OF VEG ETINE.
1st-1t is an honestly-prepared medicine from
banks, roots and herbs. 2d-It honestly accom-
plishes all that is claimed for 1t, without leav-
Ing any bad effects In the system. 3d-It pre-
sents honest vouchers in testimonials from
honest, well known citizens, whose signatures
are a sufficient guarantee OF their earnestness
in the matter. Taking into consideration the
vast quantity OF medicine brought conspcu.
advertisements In the newspaper columns. with
no proof OF merit or genuine vouchers OF what
1t has done, we should be pardoned for mani
Testing q small degree OF pride In presenting the

TEE ERA OF RECONCILIATION.

The present Is certainly the era or re-
Cancellation. The passions nf the war of
secession are being allayed, and the Blue
and the Gray are becoming fast friends
better friends than they ever We're be-
fore.
The evidences OF this are plentiful.
The former soldiers of the Union and
those Of the Confederacy are vieing with
each other In expressions of admiration
and esteem. jefferson Davis even has at
last lifted up his voice to invoke the old
Confeierates to be faithful to the flag OF
the restored Union. and at Memphis, the
other day attended the ceremonies OF
decorating the graves of the dead Con.
lederates In company with Federal Off
GERS and with the Union banner floating
over him. Gen. Forrest also, faithful
to his determination expressed just after
the fall Of the Southern cause, is doing
all he can to make the Union one in fact
Is well as In theory.
All these facts are, as we have said, in
dicajon that at last we are TO realiz,
Grants words and have peace.
