A Walking Miracle.

Mr.. II. r. Stevens:
DEAR SIR: Though a stranger, want to inform
you what VeRetine has done for me.
Last Christmas Scrofula made its appearance in
my system-largely running ulcers appearing on
me, as follows: One on each of my arms, one on my
thigh, which extended to the seat; one on my head,
which became so bad that two physicians came to
amputate the limb, though upon consultation con.
cluded not TO do my whole body was full of
which painful beyond description, and there
The physicians all gave up to die, and said they
could do more for me. Both of my legs were
drawn up to my seat, and IL thought if did get
up again would be a cripple for life.
When in this condition / saw Negetine advertised,
and commenced taking IL in March. and followed on
with II until had used sixteen bottles, and this
morning l am going to plough corn, a well man.
All my townsmen say II Is miracle to see me
around walking and working.
in conclusion, will add when was enduring
such great suffering from that dreadful disease.
Scrofula, prayed the Lord above to take out of
this world, but Vegetine has restored to me the
blessings of health, desire more than to live,
that may be of some service to my felow-men,
and know of no better way to aid suffering human
ity than to nclose you this statement of my case,
with earnest hope that you will publish 1t, and
IL will afford me pleasure to reply to any communi
cation which may receive therefrom.
