One of the most noteworthy fea-

and aripd increase in weight as ce-
suit of it's use.
When so many well-known people of
unquestioned integrity make state
ment afte rstatement, each corroborat-
ing the other, the truth of such state
ments can no longer be doubted.
Thousands have testified that this
famous medicine has completely res
tored them to health ana strength.
after every other medicine and the
most skilled medical treatment have
failed
One of the most remarkable cases
on record is that of Mrs. Charles
eden of Huntsville, Ala, whose state
ment appears below. Mrs. Peden, Sc
cording to her own signed statement
gained twenty-seven (27) pounds IN
only a few weeks time and her case
has created a widespread interest over
