writer rolled and tossed on the troubled
sea of sexual weakness until it was a
question whether he had not better
take q dose of poison and thus end all
his troubles. But providential inspir-
aJtion came to his aid in the shape of
combination of medicines that not only
completely restored his general health
but enlarged his weak, emaciated parts
to natural size and vigor and he now

I am not philanthropist nor do L
pose as an enthusiast but there are
