ness Of Men. Witch Cared Him After
Eyerythin.. Else Failed.
Painful diseases arc bad enough, but
when man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness, the mental forebodings
are ten times worse than the most severe
pain. There is no let up to the mental
suffering day or night. Sleep is almost
impossible and under such strain men
are scarcely responsible for what they do.
For years the writer rolled and tossed on
the troubled sea of sexual weakness until
1t was n question whether he had not bot
ter take dose of poison and thus end all
his troubles. pruvidcntial inspiration
came to his aid in the shape Of com
binntion of medicines that not only com
pletely restored the general health, but
enlarged his weak, Cmaciated parts to
natural size and vigor, and he now declares
that any man who will take the trouble to
send his name and address may have the
method Of this wonderful treatment free.
Now when say free l mean absolutely
without cost, because want every weak.
ened man to get tho benefit of my expert

l am not philanthropist, nor do pose
as an enthusiast but there are thousands Of
men suffering the mental fortunes Of
weakened manhood who would be cured

as the one that cured me- Do not try to
