After fever, such rs typhoid or scar,

the recovery of strength. The tonic that

this purpose.
Miss Midendorf had been i'll with
typhoid fever for fourteen weeks She
had good physician who carried her
safely through the critical stages. When
he left, nothing remained to DO done ex-
cept to build up her strength, which was
very feeble, and he gave her some pre-
scriptions for that purpose. Here, how.
ever, she met with disappointment.
