 Dear Sirs:-I was afflicted with a very severe sore on my leg for seven years. I am a teamster at the hneri- can Agricultural Chemical Co. at West Park. I tried all medicines and salves, but without success. I tried doctors and all others, but they all failed to cure me. I couldn't sleep for many nights from pain. Doctors after treating me for some time said I could not live for any more than two years. Finally Peterson Oint- ment was recommended to me and y it's use the sore was entirely healed. l gladly recommend Peterson's Oint- ment as a wonderful healing agent and sincerely urge everyone afflicted as l was to begin using it at once.
 Thankfully yours,
