CONSUMPTION CURED
George G. Hoyeyy 309 West J23th Street, New York City, lost 76
pounds in five months, but after using Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey his health was restored and he has not lost a

Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey
READ HIS OWN WORDS.
“I waa taken ill with pleurisy and pneumonia, which developed into eon«umption.
When taken iick I weighed 210 pounds. In nineteen weeks I wasted away to 134U'
pounds. I tried eight of the best di»ctors, and all told me I could not live six months. I
took from fifteen to thirty-five grains of creosote every day for u year without lienefit.
I had seven severe hemorrhages, was not able to walk up four steps of stairs at a time
without resting, and was not able to attend to business for tw o years.
“ Finally I gave up doctoring and began taking Duffy's Fare Malt Whiskey. I
be cured, as it is the best remedy in the world.
I owe my life to it.” GEO. G. HOVEY,
802 West 12bth St., New York City.
