A Walking Miracle.

Mr.. II. r. Stevens:
DEAR SIR: Though q stranger, want to inform
you what Negetine 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 so, my whole body was SO full OF
Scroula; they deemed Ii advisable to cut the sore,
which was painful beyond description, and there
was a quart Of matter run from this one sore.
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 1t thought IL did get
up again would be cripple for life.
When in this condition saw Vegetine advertised,
and commenced taking II in March, and followed on
with IL until had used sixteen bottles, and this
morningI am going to plough corn, well man.
All my townsmen say II Is a miracle TO see Inc
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 ever to live
that may be of some service to my fellOw-men,
and know of no better way to aid suffering human
ity than to inclose you this statement of my case
with an earnest hope that you will publish 1t, and
1t will afford me pleasure to reply to any communi-
cation which may receive therefrom.
am, sir, very respectfully.
