Dear Sir,— I wish to give vou this testimo-
ny, that you may know, and let others know,
what Vegeline has done for me. About two
years ago a small wore came on my leg; it
soon became a large ulcer, so troublesome
that 1 consulted a doctor, but 1 got no relief,
growing worse from day to day, I suite red
terribly; 1 could not rest day or night; 1 was
so reduced my friends thought 1 would never
recover; I coiisobed a doctor at Columbus. 1
followed his advice; it did no good. I can
truly say 1 was discouraged. At this time I
was footing over my newspaper; I «uv your
advertisemen. of Vegeline, the "great blood
purilior" for cleansing the blood from all im-
purities, curing huniurs, ulcers, &c,. 1 (aid
to my family, 1 will try some of the Vegetine.
He tore 1 had used the first bott le I began to
feel better. 1 made up my mind I had got
the right medicine at last. I could now sleep
well nights. I continued taking the Vege-
tine. i took thirteen bottles. My health is
good. The ulcer is gone add I am able to at-
tend to business. I paid about four hundred
dollars for medicine and doclors before I
bought the Vegetine. I have recommended
Vegeline to others with good suueess. I al-
ways keep a bottle of il in the house now. It
is a most excellent medicine.

J»eur sir,—I feel it my duty to say one
wont in regard to the great benellt 1 have re-
ceived from the use ot one ofthe greatest won-1
ders of the world; It is your Vegeline. I have
been one of the greatest sufferers for tne past
ten years that ever could be living. I do sin-
seerely thank my God and your Vegetine for
the relief I have got. The lihoumatisni has
pained me to such an extent that hoy feet
broke out in sores. For the past three years I
have not been able to walk; now 1 caii walk
and sleep, and do mv work as well as ever I
did, and 1 must say I owe It all to your blood
