Dear Sir-After nine years OF constant sickness
and pain, my wife is apparently completely and per.
manently cured, after few weeks trial of your
blood remedy and ointment.
During these long years OF suffering she has had
the advice and been under the constant OF the
best physicians of this coast and of Boston, her
former home has visited and tested number of
the mineral springs a this coast, and has given
about all of the extensively advertised proprietary
medicines thorough trial.
But proprietary medicines. mineral springs, physi.
clans, allopathie, homeopathic, magnetic-in fact,
every known form of treatment as they have been
recommended, one after another-haCe all failed to
be Of aug peTceptibIe benefit, until, when at her
very worst and last resort, she Sss induced by
sympathiziug friends to place herself under your
care, and the result is wonderful and go speedy
that feel it to be my duty to you, ana TO suffering
humanity to make known TO the pubic the aston.
isting cure that all ioho are suffering il like man.
ner NAV receive like benefit through you AMI your
wonderful remedies.
About nine years ago my wife, who for years be-
fore had been complaining of a trouble in her knee,
wrote to me from Boston that her back had broken
out with assesses /; that her knee was about to
open that none Of the physicians there had been
ane to help her; that their advice to her to go
to one Of the hospitals, her cure would be long
| and troublesome one.
Instead of entering hospital, as advised she I'M
dertook the trip out here to mo. She arrived here
nearly nine years ago. with the assesses still upon
her back Her knee opened a few days after her
arrival, and her back and knee have remained open
from that time until she placed herself under your
care about four months ago.
During these nine years there has never been
time when she has had less than ten assesses and
sometimes she has been afflicted nth as many as
tocaty iDe IN addition to one Of nine gears ago.
On the 9th of April of this year, the day on
which you first prescribed for her, she had hir Gen.
In less than four lceeks from that date nothing
manned but sears. They have all been healed for
three months, with no symptoms OF any future
trouble.
My wife, on account of the heavy drain upon her
system was reduced to 81 lbs weight. She now
weighs in the ueighborhood of I12ib lbs. Her knee,
which has been stiff and helpless all these years, is
| growing stronger and more timber every day H.
stead of being carried up and down stairs, and from
one room to another, as has been necessary for
years, she is now perfectly independent OF help ;
goes about alone indoors and out; goes down town
alone frequently each week, and can walk several
blocks each day; gains strength each day has
good appetite, and sleeps and rests WELL and for the
first time for years looks forward with bright hopes
for the future.
could tcYite uolltme descriptive OF the suffer-
ings attendant upon her experience; the hopes,
trials, failures and disappointments; che wretched
days and seepless nights. Those who have not had
such an experience could not understand it if
were to write it-those who have suffered in like
manner do not need to be told but to all who are
troubled with any impurity of the blood, or any
long-standiug sores, would earnestly advise them
to consult you and give your remedies trial in
preference to any other treatment the face Of the
earth that ever came within the range Of my eX-
perience.
You have my full permission to make use Of the
above in such manner as you may see fit.
Truly YOURS HENRY G. GO0DRIDGE,
