"whllc I do not relish any publicity / am entiro-
ly willing to speak briefly OF my case and its sue
cessNul treatment by Dr. Shepard. My trouble be-
gan four or five years ago, right after co ntracting n
we're cold that became seated through my whole
system. This seemed to be- the starting point OF
the whole list OF ailments that came after, ca
tarrh OF the right ear gave me Intense aching and
a discharge OF pus; 1t then attacked my throat,
making it sore nnd red and very susceptible to
colds. Working downwards the larnyI, or voice
box, was involved SO that lost my voice entirely.
AT first 1t was hoarsCncss, then n complete loss OF
speech. For two winters | was unable to make
any art iculatc expression, depending upon sign
language alone to convey ideas. As the catarrh
worked d~ownwaIds experienced a tightncss OF
the chest that seemed to prevent u full. deep
breath. The short breathing and incessant cough
that accompanied 1t gave me great distress and APP
prclension OF Il serious lung disease.
MY system gave way under this terrible strain,
and | lost appetite and strength. A nervous wake
fulucss at night prevented rest and added to tho
trouble. When DR.. Shepard took my cusc he very
soon changed all these things and l responded
quickly to his treatment. Tie throat and lungs
were restored TO health, my relish for food came
back, and | am today In excellent condition as n
result of his skill. | can heartily commend DR..
Shepard to all my friends who are seeking relief

Mhnt Does Ii Mean2

That was the question asked by almost
every person that passed the Boston Store
two weeks ago.
The cause of it was the arrival of the first
lot of our wall paper stock, consisting of all
grades of paper hangings from the brown
backs to the silk papers. Last season we
sold almost every roll of paper we had in
the place. and start in this season with a
much larger and finer line than ever, as
well as by far the largest stock and lowest
prices in the city. q
Read the following list Of prices:
Brown backs, &c. r
White blanks, 41ac.
White blank micos, SIC.
White blank gifts, &c and Sc.
Full gilt and bronzes, 10c, 12l2c, 15c.
Embossed gilt, tie.
These papers are all straight goods and
bought from the combination, but that makes
no difference to us. We sell wall paper
same as dry goods-small profits and large
sales.
P. S.-If you want any papering or paint
ing done do not fail to give us a chance to
furnish an estimate. We have engaged Bloss
Bros. to do our papering and painting this
season, and their name is enough to satisfy
you that everything done will be first-class.
All our work guaranteed.
