The Best Evidence.

The following letter from Rev. E. S.
BEST, pastor M. E. Church, Natick,
Mass, will be read with interest by
many physicians. Also those suffering
from the same disease rs afflicted the
son of the Rev. Z. s. Best. No person
can doubt this testimony, and there is
no doubt about the curative powers OF
VEGETINE:
NATICK, Mass, Jan. l, 1874.
Mr.. H. R. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have good reason for
regarding your VEGETINE medicine
of the greatest value. We feel assured
that it has been the means of saving our
sons life. He is now seventeen years of
age; for the last two years he has suf-
fered from necrosis of his leg, caused
by scrofulous affection, and was so far
reduced that nearly all who saw him
thought his recovery impossible. A
council of able physicians could give us
put the faintest hope of his ever rally
ing, two of the number declaring that
ne was beyond the reach of human rem
edles, that even amputation could not
save him, as he had not vigor enough to
endure the operation. just then we
commenced giving him vEGETINE.
and from that time to the present he has
been continuously improving. He has
lately resumed 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 VEGETINE, but lately uses but lit
tie, as he declares that he is too well to
be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
E. S. BEST,
MRs. /. G.. F. BEST.
