A Walking Miracle.

MR.. H. r. STEvENs: -a
Dear Slr-Though a stranger, want to ir-
form you what VEGETINE has done for me.
Last Christmas Scrofula made its appearance
IN my system-large 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 eat into the skull bone,
one on my left leg, which became so bad that
two physicians came to amputate the limb,
though upon consultation concluded not to do
SO, as my whole body was SO full of Scrofula;
was painful beyond description, and there was
q Quart of matter run from this one sore. $50.
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 it was
thought IT Gid get up again would be Grip
pie for life.
When in this condition I saw vEGETINE
advertised, and commenced taking it in March,
and followed on with it until had used six
teen bottles, and this morning going to
plough corn, a well man. All my townsmen
say it is miracle to see me round walking and
working.
In conclusion will add, when I was endur-
ing such great suffering, from that dreadful
take me out of this world, but as VEG ETINE has
restored to me the blessings of health, Il desire
more than ever to live that i may be of some
service to my fellow-men, and l know Of no
better way to aid suffering humanity, than to
1nclose you this statement of my case, with an
earnest hope that you will publish it, and it
Will afford me pleasure to reply to any COM
munlcation which may receive therefrom.
am, sir, very respectfully,
