Very many ] people vino will read this statement. l realize al times they are unusually | trei and cannot account for it They | ieei dull pains IR various parts of the ! body and do not understand why. Or 1 they are exceedingly hungry one day. l and entirely without appetite the next. | This was just the way l felt when the relentless malaty. which had fastened | ltSeI upon me, first began. still l | thought nothing oi it; that probably l 1 had taken cold which would soon pass 1 away shortly after this l nauced a | heavy, anu at times neuralgia, pain in ! one slie Oi my head, but as lt would l come one day and te gone the next. l 1 pad little attention % it. Then my l stomach would get out oi order and my ] food often failed Co digest, causing, at | times, great inconvenience. Yet, even ! as a physician, l did not think that 1 these things meant anything serious.

 and doctored myself accordingly. But l got no better. ] next noticed a pecul-
 lar color and oior about the fluids I

And vet l did not r0a.ize my danger, for, indeed, seeing t.rse symptoms continually, l finally | became accustomed tO them, and nv suspicion was wholly d.saTmed hy the

 While suffering thus received a call tr m my pastor, the Rev. Dr. Toete. at that time rector of St. Pauls ! Eriscoua! ClIrcl. of this city. ! felt ! that it was our last interview, but in the course ot conversation Dr. E0Ote detailed Co me the many remarkable I cures Of cases like my own, which had | come under his observation. As practiCIng physician and a graduate Ci iLe schools, l ieUdec the idea of any
 medicine outside the regular ch Snne.s | being in the least beneficial. 70 sO- ! leIt5us, however, was Dr. Foote, tha: l , l.-....r r-1-.=al ] would waive my | prejudice. l began it's use on the first ! day oi June, lsSl. and took lt according | tO directions.
