peared in the leading and most reputG-
bic newspapers Of the country marvel
GUS accounts Of many wonderful cures
that have been affected by a medicine

made by some of the best known men
in business circles. church circles and
even medical circles, and have been
backed up by their af1davits.

said that in such cases there was very
