Do you doubt that hundreds Of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med

dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever, in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly preiudiced and advised against
trial Of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess, that
