BAPTIST MINISTER'S EXPERIENCE.
am Baptist Minister, and before
even thought of being a clergyman, |
graduated in medicine, but left lucra-
tive practice for my present profession,
40 years ago. | was for many years
sufferer from quinsy; Thomas Eclectric
Oil cured me. | was also troubled with
hoarseness, and Thomas Eclectric Oil
always relieved me. My wife and child
had diphtheria, and Thomas Eclectric
Oil cured them, and if taken in time, it
will cure seven times out of ten. am
positive it is cure for the most obsti
nate cold or cough; if any one will take
a small teaspoon and half fill it with the
oil, and then place the end of the spoon
in one nostril and draw the oil out of the
spoon into the head by shifting as hard
as they can. until the oil falls over into
the throat, and practice that twice a
week, i don't care how offensive their
head may be, it will clean it out and
cure their catarrh. For deafness and
earache it has done wonders to my GER
tain knowledge. 1t is the only medicine
dubbed patent medicine that have ever
felt like recommending, and | am very
anxious to see it in every place, for | tell
you that | would not be without it in
my house for any consideration. | am
now suffering with pain like rheuma-
tism in my right limb, and nothing re-
lieves me like Thomas Eclectric Oil.

Grape Wine in their practice in all cases
where a pure wine is called for, and do
all in their power to foster and encour-
age its production, for the reason that
