we're cough. ! consulted five or six OF the best
physicians in Boston, but they gave up treating
me- said there was no hope ofa cure and they
could do nothing for me. A friend who had used
vegetine in his family recommended me to try 1t.
procured three bottles, and before finishing the
thi d bottle found myself entirely cured and had
not another attack OF scrofula for nine years.
After that period had to get some more Vege-
tine. but it quickly restored me to health again
and have not had a third attack. arm sixty
nine years old, and since becoming aware Of the
virtues OF your medicine have given it to my chill
dren and grandchildren and have recommended
it to my fir enls The results have been invari-
ably all that could be desired. Prev Gus to my
frst trial of the Vegetine had cancer removed
and scrofulous sores broke out on me. but none
have appeared since and believe 1t superior to
any of the Family Medicines in use.

tail. the most artistic design and the most
wonderful patience. They are the prodnc-
tions of Prof. H. s Blanchard, the protes'
