Rev. L. Dewitt Talmage, undoubtedly
the greatest living divine, occupies in the
hears and minds Of the people a position
of pre-eminent esteem and regard. No
other clergyman is so widely known. no
other clergyman Is so distinguished
throughout the world. A great orator
and writer, his sermons have the widest
dissemination, until there 10 scarcely a
family where his name and works are
not known.
When such man, recognized leader
and teacher of the people, testifies by his
written testimonial that DIR. Greene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy has helped
him and that he recommends its use for
invigorating after over-work, to restore
the strength, energy, nerve force and
vitality of the system, when for any
reason they are Lost, weakened or i'm
paired, those who are sick and suffering,
who are weak, nervous, without strength,
energy and ambition, who are discourage
ed and disheartened by repeated failures
to be cured, In fact all who have need of
. strengthening and health restoring
medicine, can take renewed hope from
the words of this great preacher, that
DR.. Greene's Nervura Is the one remedy
among all others to give them back the
health and strength they have lost.
