In the Drug Business 23 Years,

l have been druggist twenty three years, and have sold all the patent medicines which are known in this country, and can truthfully say that 1 have never known remedy for blood diseases of more value than $. $. $. (Swift's Speciiic). Mir. A., customer, was troubled with an eruption of the skin on the back of his hands, and had in vain sought relief of the best local medical tal- ent, also of some of the most noted specialists in New York, and as a last resort spent some months in Paris, under treatment of the physi- clans there, and had secured only temporary relief. After all this treat ment he was finally cured, sound and we'll, by Swift's Specific.
 Another customer, Mir. B., had suffered for many years with blood poison, and thought he had been cured by mercurial treatment, but the disease returned, accompanied of a bad type. A dozen small bot ties of $. $. s. made a perfect and lasting cure.

ought to indorse somebody just to show
