and as the tim draws near when he
must leave, 1t behooves those who
have not as yet taken the opportu-
nifty to talk to him, to do so at an
early date. There have been more
than enough testimonials published
already to put to fight the doubts OF
even the most skeptical unbeliever in
the city or state. In the face of such
positive proofs. there can be no more
room for skepticism or prejudice
therefore, come with all confidence,
and you will find Fisher to be an
honest, sincere man, whose only and
sole aim is to benefit suffering hui
mainly.

form. rheumatism of any kind or in
any stage, kidney, liver. stomach or
blood troubles, the cure is here-why
