Il victim to the combined effects of
Erysipelas and an aggravated
type of Eczema, that bailied all
medical skill. l consulted the
very best physicians in the United
States to no good purpose. l gave
every patent medicine that was
recommended a faithful trial and
received no benefit | took large
quantities of potash and pint
cup full of arsenic pills. The
patent medicine, pills, and potash
mixtures fed instead Of curing the
disease. They destroyed my ap-
petite and wrecked my system-I
lost flesh and energy lost three
years from my business and spent
$4,000 IN a fruitless effort to regain
my health. At last, when | began
to consider my case hopeless, I
comlhenced taking S. S. S, and
in short time, | was entirely

cure was effected, and continued
to take Swift's Specific off and ON
as a sort of safeguard, before /
was willing to make public this
marvellous cure. Being assured
beyond the possibility of doubt
that the cure was permanent, I
wrote this history of my case for
the benefit of my fellow-men.
My skin is now as smooth as it
was when boy I weigh more
than ! ever did in my life, and my
general health was never better.
