THE TRUTH.

Rev. Chas. H. Parkhurst,
D. D., the great reformer,
writes October "a, 1894:
MRS. Parkhurst and my
self have used Ponds Ex-
tract so long and SO con-
stantly that we can speak
appreciatively Of it and in
terms OF warm commenda-
tion."
Rev. Chas. S. Robinson,
D. D., editor of Songs for
the Sanctuary" "Laudes
Domini," and other we'll
known hymn books, writes
October %, 1894: Not
once in many years have we
been without Ponds Elk.
tract in our house. My FAM
lily prize it as we do the
presence of an old and true
friend. 1t fulhlls every
promise it makes and is a
help to every one Of u.s."
Rev. d. Parker Morgan,
D. d., Church of the Heav-
emily Rest, New York, writes
November 70, 1894: Il
have been using a great deal
of Ponds Extract for the
past year in gargling, as |
find it affords great relief in
colds"
During the past month
the Ponds Extract Com
pany have received over
1000 orders from physi-
clans. We have on our
books testimonials and or.
ders from most of the Gov
errors and many of the Sem
ators Of the United States :
from the royalty of Europe,
such as Her Majesty tho
Queen of Roumania, tho
Duchess of Cumberland,
Princess of Wied, and others
too numerous to mention.
When the clergy, the
medical profession, states
men and royalty all unite in
praise of an article it seems
unnecessary to say any
thing additional, but we do
find it necessary to warn
the public against imita-
tons. These words of praise
are all in favor of Ponds
Extract-the genuine and
only.
1t is because of its intrin-
sic merit and high reputa-
ton that Ponds Extract has
been initiated. If it were
not of such great value and
so world renowned there
would be no limitations.
