STrnvENs: Dear Sir -- I have been sick two years with the 1+h''r complaint, and during that time have taken a great many different medicines but none of them did me any good. I was restless at nights and had no appetite. Since taki ng( the Vegotine I rest well and relsl my foud. Can recoin mend the Vg. oie for what it has done for me. Yours respeetffully, 1Ias. -ALBDER IRICKERi. Witness of the' above. Mr. (eo. M. Vaugl1mn, Medfard, Mass. VEGETI NE. T s'.l'louands will lear testimony (and do it voluntarily) that Vegetine N the best medical comapound yet placed beforo the I public for renovating and purifying the blood, eradicating all humors, im :-ties or poisonous secretions fromt the system, invigorating and strengthening the system debilitated by disease; in fact, it is, as many have called it, "The Great Health Restorer." SAFE AND SURE, Mn. H. 1t. STEvENS : In 1872 your Vogetine was recomimend ed to me, and yielding to the persi~asions of a friend, I consented to try it. At rhe time, I was suffering from general debili ty and nervous prostrations, superin duced by overwork and irregular habits. Its wonderful strengthening. and ourative properties seemed to affect my debilitated system from the first dose, and under its persistent use I rapidly recovered, gain ing more than usual health and good feeling. Since then I have not hesitated I to give Vegetine imy most unqualified in dorsement as being a safe, sure and pow erful agent in promoting health and res toring the wasted system to new life and energy. Vegetine is the only medicine I use, and as long as I livo I never expect to find a lbetter. Yours truly, WV. HL. CLARK, 120) Monterey Street, Alloghany, P'a. . VEGET1INE. Vegotine thoroughly eradicates every kind of humor, andi restores the entire system to a healthy conditlon. Th'le following letter from Rev. G. W. Mansfield, formerly pastor of the Metho dist Episcopal Church, Ivyde Park, and at presenlt setti ed inl Lowell, i mist convince every oneC who reads ris letter of theO wonderful cuirat ivo quliies 10V0eget ine as5 a thorough cleanser and p~urinier of thle blood: Inn PAnR, MAss., Feb. 15, 1876. Mn. J[. RL. S-rnvxE~s: D~ear Sir- About ten years ago my health failed thlroughl tihe depleting effects of dyspepsia; nlearly a year later I i' as at aekod by typhoid fever in its worst formu, I settled in may back and took time flrm of al large dEep-seated abscess, whlich wais fifteen months in gathering. I had two surgical opmerationms, by the best skill in the State but received .no permanent cure. I suffered great p~ain at times mind was constantly weakened bmy a p~rofulso dischparge. I also lost smaill pieces of bone at diflerent timles. .AIatters ran on thus abiouit seven yearsi f ill May, 1874, when a friend recom-. mtended mei to go to your office and talk with ysu of the virtue of Vegotine. I didl so, and by your kindness passedl through your manu factory, noting thme ingredients, etc., by wiclih your remedly is produeed. By whlat I saw andm heard I gained some1 confidenlce inl Vegotirne. I comuimenced taking it so'on after, but felt, worse from its effects; still I per sovered and soon felt it was heneoltting me ini other respects. Yet I did noi see the results I desired, till I had taken it faith fully for ai uittle more than a year. when thle difficiulty in the back wvasm uredl, and( for nine months I have enjoyed the best <f health. I have in that timo gained twventy-fivo pounds of le.h. being heavier than ever b~efore in my life, anid I was never moae able to perform labor than nowv. During the past few weeks I have a Rcrofulous swelling as large as myl list gather on another part of my body. I took Vegetine faithfully and it r movedl it ?evel with the surface in a mounth. I think I shiouild havo been~ cured of my main trouble soonier if I had taken larger doses, after havinig booomea accustomed to its efficts. Let your patrons troubled with scrofula or kidney discasoumnderstand that It takes time to cureochronio diseases, and if they will paitiently take Vegotino, it will, in my ju m~ient,-dure them.~ ' am, Yours very truly, Pamstor of the MtoitE hrh --PRPARED BY H~ Ri.SEVENS, BOSTON, MASS.
