A Remarkable Case.

Mrs. Henry Ellis, 500 Scott street.

induced by sense of duty to the suffering
to make brief statement of your remark
able cure of myself was a most miser
able sufferer from the various annoying
and distressing diseases of delicate persons,
which caus ed me to be confined to my
bed for long time, being too weak to
even bear my weight upon my feet. l
was treated by the most reputable physi-
clans in our city, each and all saying they
could do nothing for me. | had given up
all hopes of ever being well. In this con-
dition began to take your MANALIN
and PERUNA, and ] am most happy to
say in three months / was perfectly well
entirely cured, without any appliances
or support of any kind"
Mr.. 6. A. Proehl, New Portage, Sum-
init County, Ohio, writes: MY wife
has been sick for about five years. In the
first place the doctor called it leucorrh9a,
and treated it about one year, and she
grew worse, and turned to liberation of
the womb, and was treated for that two
years, but she grew worse and the doctor
derwood, one of the best doctors of Akron,
but under his treatment she grew worse.
She was paralyzed; she had lost all of the
sense of feeling and her eyesight. She
could not walk for nearly two years.
About six months ago Underwood gave
her up. She tried your PBRUNA. She
has taken three bottles, and it did more
good than any other medicine. The pa
ralysis has about left her; her eyesight is
getting better. We will continue the use
of PERUNA until she is WELL"
Mr.. Isaac Nicodemus, Schellsburg, Bed
ford County, Pa, writes: 81 am induced,
by a sense of duty to the suffering, to make
brief statement of your remarkable help,
as sufferer of catarrh in my head and

physicians in our place for that dreaded
disease, catarrh, and found no relief. But
in 1883 I lost my speech, and was not able
10 do any kind of work for near three
months. I could neither eat nor sleep.
PERUNA and MANALIN did wonders for
me. I used three bottles of PERUNA and
one of MANALIN, and now / am in bet

and can heartily recommend your med
icine to all suffering from that dread dis
ease, catarrh."

self and the government he represents from
becoming involved in the impending difficult
ties But England cannot honorably or
safely avoid implication. If single shot were

the British Foreign Office would be called upon
to decide at once whether it would defend its
protege, the Amer, or leave him in the lurch.
Nor is it sure that Abdurrahman would not vel
como any pretext for abandoning the ally to
whom he is indebted for his crown For,
although he has thus far given overt proof of
disloyalty, it is known that Russian emissaries
have for some time been active at Cabul nor can
Abdurrahman be expected to forget the generous
reception given him, when a refugee, by Gen.
kaufman, at Tashkend, where the Afghan pre-
tender had princely revenue assigned to him.
