Messrs. WEEKs & POTTER, Wholesale Druggists,
Boston, Mass: Gentlemen, Il have forso months
felt 1t a duty that owe to suffering humanity to
write you, stating the great benefit that have de-
rived from the use of SANFoRDS RADICAL CURE
FOR CATARRu. For more than 20 years have been
afflicted with this very troublesome complaint. I
have tried all the remedies that could find, but
without material or permanent benefit. Last fall
the disease had arrived at that state that must
have relief or die. The entire membranous system
had become SO inflamcd, and the stomach so disor-
dcred, that 1t was o doubtful matter whether
could go to the Pacific coast, If did go whether
should live to come back or not. I saw an adver-
tisement of this medicine and although being very
incredulous about specifics or nostruns of any
kind, yet In sheer desperation tried this and was
at once benefited by it,. The changes of climate,
chronic disease of the liver, and my age-oycr 20
may prevent my entire restoration, but the bene-
flt derive from its daily use Is to fnrdludble,
and am hoping to be completely cured, and at
last arrive at a respectable old age.
If this statement of my be OF any service
to those afflicted as have been and enable you to
on the Pacific coast (where it is much needed), my
object In writing this note will be obtained.
Very truly yours, HENRY WELLS,
