A. L. MURDOCH:
Dear Sir--I would like to tell you of our ex
perience with your Liquid Food, for feel very
sure that in the mercy of God it saved my hus-
bands life.
Two wears ago, my husband worn outWith ex-
cessiye watching and anxiety by reason OF a
severe illness of mine, together with the
pressure of his duties as principal of high
school. broke down completely, nervous ex-
haustion, severe rhematism, amounting almost
TO rheumatic fever, and complete arrangement
of the digestive system, so that he could not
keep milk on his stomach, or the simplest nour-
ishment brought him down very low
Our physician, nearly in despair, tried one
thing after another, but all to no good. At last
he hit on your Liquid Food; the effect was mag
ical. The very first dose made itself felt like a
thrill of new life; his improvement was very
rapid, his appetite ravenous, and he gained flesh
very fast. His rheumatism, too, which had
troubled him exceedingly for several years, was
very much relieved, and, in short, he seemed
and felt like new man. To all who knew him
and his former condition, he was walking
advertisement OF Murdock's S Liquid Food. Since
that time when he becomes debilitated through
oyerwork or Indigestion, a LITTLE OF the Liquid
Food will soon set him right again.
Feeling that we both owe you large debt OF
gratitude, and this acknowledgment OF the
benefit received, am,
Yours respectfully,
MRS. PERCIYAL F. MARSTON,
;an11M, W&Fts AndoVer, Mass.
