Ong of the most noteworthy fealurcs ill connection with the in troduction of Teniae, and the one that stands nut mon prominently than any 0tb r, perhaps, is the very IgfgC number of well-known men :inl women from nil parts of the state who have recently reported an astonishing ami rapid Increase in weight as a result of its use. When so many well "known people of unquestioned Integrity make statement after statement, each corrobotlng the other, the truth of such statements can no longer lie doubted.

Soon after taking Teniae ills digestion rapidly improved, hiM pain disappeared, his nerves became calm and steady and lie rained thirty pounds. Another Interesting case is that B. A. Weldy, the well known manager of thr Bmory hotel in scottshluff, Neb., who says thai he was suffering from a complete nervous breakdown and was in such a serious condition that despaired of ever reiainlnn his health and strength, but upon so bad he could hardly rarse It to his head.
