" My brother is a doctor, but all his
efforts to help me failed to give any relief.
"I tried a number of remedies without

I bought a box and took the pills ac
ing to instructions.
"Four days later I had the hacclesf
hours I had known for years. That night '
I went to sleep easily and slept soundly as
a enna and awoke relrestiea.
"After I had taken four boxes of th
pills, I found that I was cured and had also
increased 27 pounds in weight.
"This greatly surprised my friends, who
thought my case was a hopeless one. I be
gan my work again and have continued
ever since in excellent health.
"Another valuable gain to me was, that
while I was taking these pills I had been
cured of the smoking habit, which had
formed when I was a boyand had clung
to me all these years. The craving for
tobacco left me and I have never expe
rienced it since.
"I cannot say enough for these pills and
have recommended them to many."
