SWORN STATEMENT.

What j. j. Duffaney of South Mortified
has 10 say
"For over twenty years | had not been
able to breathe through my nose, as il was
constantly stopped up from catarrh.' Fiji
teen years ago last March | took very
bad cold and asthma set In. For the past
twelve years my friends have been looking
for my death. Ever since ] was attacked
with asthma had been constantly run
ming down in flesh until the doctors and
everyone that knew me said i was fast
going with consumption. My appetite
was gone, so to speak, ! was not able TO
do anything, my shortness for breath was
very bad and asthma caused me to get no
breath And ! was unable to 20 to bed
many night; had to sit in my chair, or
bolstered up. In this condition, for
twelve long years / suffered notwithstand-
ing took every patent medicine ! could
hear OF for consumption, catarrh or
asthma Nevertheless / gradually grew
worse until last May, hearing OF the many
wonderful cures being effected by Dr..
Morrow, my brother took me to his Office,
seemingly more dead than alive Ny
heart was very weak and palpitated very
badly; liver was very sluggish and my
kidneys troubled me a great deal In this
condition, met DR.. Morrow, who gave
me a very careful examination and told me
III / would strictly follow his directions, he
would cure me, and he has faithfully kept
his word. now weigh l4S pounds, can
breathe well through my nose, my cough
is gone and so is my asthma and other
troubles ! have followed threshing
machine the greater part Of this fall. and
have felt no return of my asthma and
other troubles, which TO me is the greatest
proof in the world that | am permanently
cured. give this testimonial freely and
without solicitation, trusting 1t may be
the means OF bringing some other poor
sufferer where they can obtain relief as !
have. Furthermore, ! wish to state, that
my son, George, IA years of age, has suf-
fered with asthma since he was two
months old. He had an attack OF measles
at that age, and it left him with asthma so
bad that he has been unable to lie down at
night for the last eight years. After /
found that | was getting better, | took
him TO DIR. Morrow also. He relieved his
asthma inside OF one week and he has
never suffered with il since, therefore |
feel doubly grateful to DIR. Morrow and /
am satisfied and know that If you viii
strictly follow his directions, IL he tells
you ne can cure, he can do So"
A grateful patient,
