did number of my neighbors, ard in every
case that came within my Knowledge il eff
fected cure In 1885 my brother-in-law,
George Walker, bought st auction slave
not warranted. After the purchase 1t was
discovered thst he had had Syphilis tor
twelve years. His head was without hair
on it. lie treated him with this remedy, and
in four weeks he was sound and well, and IN

slave mauy years, and he never had any re-

There was no reason why an appor.

which had been proposed, he showed
that at 307, the number first sug.
