AN OPEN LETTER TO CITIZENS OF
 BIRMINGHAM.

Just as "all the world loves a lover" so almost everyone feels an interest in extraordinary achievements in art, science medicine or commerce, although they may not have direct personal in- terest in the matter Among notable achievements of recent years the tre- mendous success of De Lacy's Cln-Ko- Ma and Iron is among the most remark aijle and conspicuous Measured by sta- tistics merely, the record is interesting, showing as it does that over S00,000 bot ties of De Lacy's Chin-ko Ma and Iron have been sold in our first year; but of far greater tmporance and interest tosus and to you is the thought of the thou sands of persons to whom it has been the means of complete restoration to health and strength.
 Just one year ago, after years Of study and research and having expended thousands of dollars in experiment, we perfected the formula of De Lacys Gin Ko-Na and Iron and introduced it to the public as a positive, unfailing cure Tor all forms of Catarh, Rheumatism, Ma laria and Somach and Nervous disorders and as a general Strengthening Tonic and Invigorant.
 We had absolute confidence in Cin-K Ko- Ma and Iron; we know its qualities must command success and we expected it.
 
 year, we are free to admit that our most sanguine expectations have been more than realized Not only has the demand for Cin-Ko-Na and Iron .Deen enormous cat times taxing our capacity, but we are constantly in receipt of grateful let ters from all parts of the country rom thousands of persons who testify to al- most marvellous cures by Cin-Ko-Na and Iron.
 We would be more than ungrateful un- der the circumstances if we would let our first anniversary pass without some ac- knowledgment of the cooperation and assistance of all those who have contrib uted in any degree to make our first year such an unqualified, unparalleled suc- cess.
 We therefore publicly tender OUT thanks to all the wholesale druggists, as well as to all the retail druggists of Bir- mingham, who have sold in the past wear thousands of bottles of our De Iacy's Cin-Ko-Na and Iron, also to the publishers of the Birmingham Age Her ala the columns of which paper have from time to time announced to the cit- izens of Birmingham the unduestionapie merit of Gin -Ko-Na and Iron. Also to the scores of physicians who have used 1t in their practice.
 To the large number or persons who rave sent us STdctlui dho "N knowIedements of benefits derived from our preparation. we would say that we appreciate beyond measure the unselfish- ness of their motives in thus relating Tor the benefit of others who may be suHer- ing. how they have been restored to health and strength by De Lacy Cih- Ko-Na and Iron.
 In this day and age of progress II IS contrary to human nature to be satisned' therefore having so far exceeoeu our own expectations even our own hopes in inc past year, we confidently look TOT ward to this year with greatly increased expectations. We will not pc sa.isieu rntii throughout the length ana preaoln of this broad land of ours. every sunereI from Catarrhal affections, stomacn Troubles. Malaria ana NerVous anu Blood Diseases has learned of the won derfuI curative properties of De Lacy's Cin-Ko-Na and Iron and to that end we bespeak a continuance or your hhu- lv interest and assistance.
