I had been ailing for six months with nervous prostration and impurities of the blood, and became so ill finally that y case just simply baffled the doctors. I was down in bed and hal just about given up hope when 1 read an advertise ment and started to toko tho 'Favorite Proscription' and tho 'Golden Medical Discovery.' Then wo changed doctors and it was with the approval of taj physician that I kept right on with them, until I was completely rostorcd to health. Wo also acted on advlco received from ut. ncrco's invalids' Hotel along with my doctor's approval and I fed positlvo that I owe my llfd nnd present good health to tho treatment I had at that ! time with Dr. Pierce's remedies.

"When the family Invited mo to sit down with them nt the table, I felt un comfortable; hut hunger wns stronger than my fears, and I took my seat on n rickety stool between tho big, hairy man nnd one of his well-grown daugh ters.
