NATICK, Mass, Jan. l, 1874.
Mr.. III. r. Stevens: Dear Strive have goOd
reason for regarding your Vegetine medicine
of the greatest value. We feel assured that Il
has been the means of saving our eon's life.
He Is now ~ years of age. For the last two
years he has suffered from necrosis OF his leg
caused by scrofulcus affection, and was 50 far
reduced that nearly all who saw him thought
his recovery impossible. A council Of able
physicians could give MS but the falntest hope
of his ever rallying, two OF the number declar-
ing 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. Jast then we commenced giving
HIM Vegetine, and from that time 10 the pres
ent he has been continuously improving. He
haslate>s. resnmed his studies. throwing away
his crutehes and cane, and walks about cheer
fully and strong. Though there Is StiH some
discharge from the opening where the limb
was ianeed. we have the fullest confidence that
In a, little time he viii be perfectly cured. He
has taken about three dozen bottles Of Vege-
tine, but lateiy uses butlittle, az he declares
that he Is too wen to be taking medicine. Re-
specially yours, F. BEST,
