Captain s. o. Moore of brig Shannon, writes
to the Holman Liver Pad company:
GENTLEMEN-I left here in October, 1878, on
the brig shannon, with a cargo of lumber and
a crew of eight men, for Havana. We staid in
that port 81 days, while yellow fever was at its
ing largely, and crippled on account OF the
fever. We all used the Holman Pad as a pre-
ventive but one man, and all escaped the fever

Mr.. A. ID. Babbitt, an employe of the Western
| Union Telegraph company, at New Orleans,
states that out of nine men of the company

three concluded they were equally safe with

/ Not one of the six who used the PADS were at

One of the leading members of the Howard
Association, in st. Louis, gave the following
testimony to the writer: I'VE sent, at the
| urgent request OF the sufferers of the South,
SIX nurses from st. Louis OF this number,
| two, to my certain knowledge, wore HoLMAN's
| LIVER PADS, bile the other four did not. AT
the close OF their labors the six returned, but
four of them had been severely attacked by
the fever, and had only recovered after careful
nursing, while the two who wore the PADS
had been unscathed, and had devoted their
time to nursing the others. do not know the
| philosophy of this, but know the facts, and
they lead me to believe in the great efficiency
| of the HOLMAN PAD.
4 Hundreds of proofs like the foregoing are al
| hand, but these should suffice to convince
every one of the wisdom of providing them
selves with a HOLMAN PAD, and thereby NOT
only save themselves, but arrest disease.
