NORTH HYDE PARK, VT, Feb. 7, 1s7

Pastor Of the Wesleyan Methodist Church at ritaton,
LuIernc County Pa.
My Dear sir-lIavng at various times, personally,
aud in my and other families tested the great
value OF the medicine called PERUVIAN SYRUP, or
PROTECTED SOLUTION OF PROTONlDE OF IRON, |
most cccrfuly recommend It, especially To those who
suffering from dyspeptic and nervous disorders As
reliable and powerful Alternative it is think, uusnr.
passed and tonic free from all the objectionable
features of alcoholic remedies it is most efficient aux
Hilary to the temperance cause. One of the greatest
hndrances to the temperance reform at present is,
think the medical use of alcoholic smumts What
ever may he argued TO their necessity in certain
cases, we have in the PERUVIAN SYRUP II safe and
efficient substitute Tor those dangerous remedies. This
testimony given unsolicited with the hope that
who are not yet cguaintcl with the valuable proper
ties of the medicine may be induced to give it trial
Yours truly, JOHN GREGORY
