A Walking Miracle.

Mr.. II. r. Stsrsns:
DEAR SIR: Though a stranger, l want to inform
you what Vegetine 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 my head,
which eat into the skull bone; one my left leg,
which became so bad that two physicians came to
amputate the limb though upon consultation con-
cluded not to do my whole body so full of
Scrofula: they deemed 1t advisable to cut the
which was painful beyond description, and there
was q quart OF matter run from this one sore.
The physicians all gave me up to die and said they
could do no more for me. Both of my legs were
drawn up TO my seat, and IL thought If did get
up again would be cripple for life.
When in this condition saw Ne2etine advertised,
and commenced taking IL In March, and followed on
with II until had used sixteen bottles, and this
morning am going to plough corn, well man.
All my townsmen say Il isa miracle to see me
around walking and working.
In conclusion, will add when l was enduring
such great suffering from that dreadful disease.
Scrofula prayed the Lord above to take me out of
this world, but Negetine has restored to me the
blessings OF health, desire more than ever to live,
that may be of some service to my fcllOw-men,
and know of no better way to aid suffering human
lily than to inclose you this statement of my case
with earnest hope that you will publish 1t. and
1t will afford me pleasure to reply to any communi-
cation which may receive therefrom.
