Tracy City, Tenn, Feb 30, 1912.
Mr.. John Hawkins,
Jasper, Tenn.
Dear Sir:
We wish to write you and express
our appreciation of the benefit derived
from the medicine we bought from
you. Our daughter, May, a girl of 10
years of age, had suffered greatly with
female trouble. For months she had
had no use of her mind at all. She
was perfectly helpless, someone had to
be constantly with her. We had sew
eral doctors to wait on her but none of
them seemed to do her any good.
We bought from you a bottle of
Watkins Female Remedy" and used
it. Then we bought the second bottle.
May was much improved by this time.
And now we are or the fourth bottle
and she is all right. Her mind is good
and her physical condition is splend-
id. In fact the medicine has complete
ly cured her, from all appearance.
We want to highly recommend Wat
kins' Female Remedy and advise all
women suffering with this trouble to
try it. With best wishes,
Very truly.
BEN HARRIS.

Harris family and that the above is
