Frank SiddaIPs Opinion.
| Frank SiddalPs name has become household
| word wherever purity in soap is priced, and
washing day is robbed of its old fashioned ter
rors. BY the introduction of the soap which
| bears his name, he has wen place in the CRATE
| full hearts of the women of America. The opin-
| ions of a man as shrewd and Observant as Mr..
| Siddall is known to be, are well worthy of con-
| sideration in forming judgment on matter
| which he has examined.
| Whether in a throng of invited guests, as at
his Silver Wedding" or in the quiet comfort
| of his cozy home it is pleasant to spend an
| evening with Mr.. Siddall. Desiring TO learn
| his views concerning an important question of
health one of our editors passed an hour with
| him and his family. To look at Mr.. and Mrs.
| Siddall and their son, nobody would suppose
that they had ever been invalids. Yet they
| have, and all three of them owe their present
| health to
Well, let them tell the story.
| "No," said Mr.. Siddall, you would hardly
| think my wife an invalid Certainly she has
not an emaciated or feeble appearance. But
| some time ago, there appeared on her side some
| thing which seemed to be tumOr. Two OF her
! relatives had died of cancer, and she feared she
was to be a victim of that terrible malady. The
| tumor, or whatever it was increased in size and
painfulness The chatting of the dress against
! it was continual reminder of its presence, as
well as a constant irritation. We feared the
necessity of the surgeons knife a last resort
But we tried another method. i had long
| known of Compound Oxygen. 1t had never
made any impression on my mind until, after
| good deal of disbelief, had tried it for my sick
headaches. With close application to largely
| increasing business which took my whole time
| and thought, l had become martyr to this dis
| L.. CIV hot
such an invisible agent as the gas which is in
| hailed through tube could make its impress on
| that condition of the system which produces
| sick headache But it did. After taking the
office treatment, found complete rest from
| brain WEAKNESS, and entire exemption from the
nausea and narrowing pains which make up
| that very unpleasant combination known as
! sick headache. 1became an entirely renovated
man in my ability to attend to daily business.
| l had also for q long series of years suffered
| severely from constipation. The Compound
| Oxygen treatment completely removed this
| trouble
$50 we concluded to try Compound Oxygen
| for Mrs. Siddai. Dr. Starkey, after careful
examination, pronounced the abnormal growth
| to be something entirely different from cancer.
| This was great relief even if the growth
could not be entirely removed, and it gave
| great confidence in DR.. Starkey, for some prac-
| titioners would have tried TO make it out as
| Il
order to magnify their skill IN case cure were
made In even the short space of few days
the effect was perceptible. Compound Oxygen
was doing its work on the blood. The poison
! in the circulation or whatever it was that had
/ caused the growth of the lump, was driven out
of the system. Most of the hard growth was
| absorbed into the circulation, and thus carried
away. The hardness departed. Something
| like the core of boil came out, painlessly.
| Within four weeks from the time she began to
! take the Compound Oxygen the lump was
| gone, and the flesh had healed and become as
natural and healthy as that on any other part
/ of the body.
mis-. Siddan is now as able as ever
to attend to her regular duties, which she
| heartily enjoys. She is wonderful help to me
! in my extensive business, being at my office
every day, transacting, with great efficiency,
the affairs of her department.. which consists
in the supervision of the 20 lady clerks"
| And how as TO your son, MIR. Siddall?"
well, he is now IS hearty as need be;
| thanks to Compound Oxygen. His blood was
impure. For years he was my cashier, with
| constant duty and heavy responsibility. 1t
wore on him. His appetite was irregular and
! capricious. There were pimples and blotches
on his face, indicative Of the condition of his
! blood. There were dark spots under his eyea,
aud his general state was such that although
| he was not laid up in bed as chronic invalid,
! there was danger that he would be- We tried
| him with the treatment. Compound Oxygen
soon did for him what it had done for his
mother and myself. 1t renewed his blood and
gave him a heartier vitality. The pimples,
| blue spots, and other indications disappeared.
! His skin became soft and natural. His appe-
| tite became regular, and his digestion, which
of course had been impaired, was restored to
| its proper condition"
"Then, Mr.. Siddall, you have no objection to
be quoted as believer, firm, thorough, and
constant, in Compound Oxygen"
|" Beieuer !. Why consider that IN the discovery
| # Compound Oxygen there has been giUea 10 the
uOrld something UatidbLe and as notable as Jefl-
| ner care 1t an the discovery of UacciRation! Be-
lever! Why, see our family experience with
it. Believer! Yes, SO much SO that l never
! lose an opportunity to send those of my friends
| who need medical treatment to Drs Starkey 81
| Palen, and all that l have heard from are en-
| thusiastic in their approval Of it. Not a
word of disappointment from any Of them.
Believer! Well, l have induced four of my
clerks to take tho treatment There is Mr..
Johnson, for instance. Come ~ound TO the
Office in the morning and see him. He had
catarrh so badly that at night he had to take
| handkerchief to bed with him, and to have
basin by the side of the bcd in which to ex-
pectorate during the hours when most people
| are asleep, and now. after but few weeks
treatment he is almost entirely rid of this
trouble. His ears were clogged with catarrh
| discharge. They arc now entirely free from it.
And so might tell, you till morning of such
cases and Others of similar Importance and
value. You cannot speak too highly of the
Compound Oxygen. You may give my opinion
] of il as strongly as you please"
The writer called to see Mr.. johnson and
found him at his post, not only free from ca
tarrhal annoyance, but grateful for it, and en-
thusiastic in his praises of Compound Oxygen.
And now, if any one wishes to know all about
this wonderful Compound Oxygen, let him
write to Drs. Starkey & Palen, 1l09 Girard St.,
Philadelphia, and they will send him an inter-
esting little book in which it's discovery, nature,
and action are fully described. 1t also contains
| q large record Of remarkable cures which have
been made during the last twelve or thirteen
years in all forms Of chronic silment.
