TACOMA. Wash. lime I 10,

TACOMA, Wash, June 1, 1891.
DR.. j. Z. Jordan, Seattle, Wash, Dear
sir-l have been taking your medicine
seven weeks, and it gives me the greatest
pleasure to tell you and every one else who
VIII listen how much good they have done
me. When think Of what have suffered
and how many doctors have tried their
skill on me to no earthly good, how they
have filed me with morphine, choral and
other poisons until l was nearly crazy, and
how many hundreds of dollars my poor
husband has paid out in the last three
years, before we heard of your wonderful
cures, am astonished to see myself today
able to go all over the city, able to do my
housework and after busy day to lie
down and have whole nights good sleep.
Dear doctor, my husband and / are very
thankful to you for what your medicines
have done for me.

SEATTLE, WASH, June g. 1891.
Our baby was very sick and we tried
several physicians in town. None of them
seemed to know what the matter was. She
couldn't stand; couldn't play; it was diff
cult for her to get her breath; she had
choking spells from the time she was
months old; would choke every five min
utes during the night, and was subject to
commissions and muscular contraction.
We had about given up hope of her getting
well, when we took her to DR.. Jordan, and
in very short time she commenced to inn
prove until all these symptoms have dis
appeared entirely, and she has not had a
sign of them for some time.
1t gives me great pleasure to make this
statement, so that others who have chill
dren that are i'll may know where to take
them for treatment.
