DEAR SIR:-Some years ago operated float

operations was being constantly changed, and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences. l employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem-
Der there was great loss of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
NV attention was then called to Johnson's Chill
and Fever Tonic, and I determined to give the
medicine a trial. [ procured it, and those who
were sick were put this treatment and those who
we're feeling badly were at once given the Tonic
In a short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was well and reported for duty; and from that time
on used nothing else but Johnson's Tonic, and
never had another case of fever.
