No other medicine in the world is recon-
inended so highly, so strongly and so earnestly
and by so many well-known and prominent
people as DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy. II Is recommended TO the sick by al
most everybody, as the surest cure. 1t is
recommended everywhere as the greatest OF all
health restorers. 1t invariably gives strength
to the tired, oyer-worked aud worn-out body.
1t makes pure, rich, yitaizcd blood and strength
ems and inyigorates the nerves OF those who are
nervous, nerye-weakened and nerYe-eXhausted.
Then, too, look at the standing OF the people
who recommend DR.. Grcene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy as tho greatest and grandest
OF medicines. They are our foremost citizens,
men and women occupying high places OF honor
and trust and known 10 everybody, people
whose word is always the very essence Of truth
and who recommend the weak, nervous and
suffering 10 use DR.. Grcene's Neryura because
1t cured them, because they have absolute per-
sonal KNOWLEDGE that il is sure restorer Of
heath and strength, and because they wish the
public 10 have the full advantage OF this truly
wonderful medical discovery.
They desire that health, strength and yigor
shall take tho place OF weakness, prostration
and despair among tie people, and they publish
the marvellous facts Of their own cures, over
their own signatures, that the common people
everywhere may know that 10 take DR.. Greene's
Nerura blood and nerve remedy means to be
restored to health, reinyigorated, rejuyenated,
yeyitaIized with new hope, renewed powers,
energies and ambitions.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1897-10-02

I Here, for instance, Is the recommendation
for tho people TO use DR.. Greene's Neryura by
one of our greatest statesmen, Hon. II. Henry
Powers, Morrisville, VT, Member Of Congress
and Chairman of the Committee on Pacific
Railroads, Member Of the Committee on cleo
ton of President and Vice-P President, and who
for sixteen years before taking his seat in Con-
gress was Judge OF the Supreme Court. He
has also been State Senator and Speaker OF the
Vermont House Of Representatives. Surely
there can be no higher testimony in favor OF q
remedy than the personal words of so distin-
guished a statesman and eminent judge, and
we doubt not that his testimonial and encour-
aging recommendation 10 those who are out of
health to use DR.. Greene's Nervura, will result
in the cure of everyone who reads these lines,
for his advice will certainly influence all to i'm
medately use DIR. Greenes Neryura.
Congressman Powers says:
AZ have found that DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is q most valuable
tonic, toning up the system and producing a
condition OF refreshment and buoyancy after
long continued mental strain. l have heard il
spoken of in terms OF high appreciation by
many responsible witnesses, and fully concur
in their opinion.
II. HENRY POWERS"
Get DR.. Greenes Nervura blood and nerve
remedy at once and be cured.
Remember that this wonderful cure Is q

we-known DIR. Greene, 80 West l4th ST.,
