pleasure iu staling ill cllectsas reported to me bv three
brothers who live in this place, nnd their their testimony
Is ft fair specimen of all I huve received :
W . f. Colis told me "I had taken nine bullies of
Christie s Aiuc Mtilsntn, and continuully run down while
using it until my lungs and liver were Congested to that
degree that blisd discharged from mv mouth nnd bowels,
so that all thought it impossible for'me to live throuirh
another chill. J'he doctors too did nil they could fnc me,
but thought 1 must die. Nothing did me any good until I
got Khodets Fever and Ague Cure, which at once relieve
me of the distress and nausea nt my stomach aud pain in
my head and bowels, and produced a permanent cure in
short tune." . . , .
II. M. CON KLIN says: "1 hud been Inking medicine
of us good a doctoi as we have in our county, and taken
hi' y (Utility of quinine nnd specifics without nny g.wl
result, Horn 'JSth Angmi to 17th December. But seeing;
how nicelv it opeiuled on mv brother. I got a bottle of
HlluliKS' I K 1011 AND Alil K (.THI-:, which effected
a permanent cure by using two thirds of a hotile."
S. M. CUNKLIN was and here, but both tha other
brothers iy his ease was the same as II. .M s I sold the
medicine lo itotn lliesame day, anil the cure was as speedy
from Ihe same suiali quaulily, and I mielit so specify;
Yours with respect, A. Hl'NTl.NOTliN.
The above speaks lor itself, f.ood process it i. it is of
no belter tsuor than the vast number ot the hkocciWictitcs
I have nheady published, and Ihe still greater amount thnt
is continuall pouring iu lo me.
One thing irsore Ijist year I had occasion to Cutltijii
the Public in these words:

oilier medicine say as much if he dates ' Ac.
Now I bike pleasure in saying that the I aution refarred
to the same -'Dr. Christie's Ague Balsam" that IS men
tioned in Ihe above ceriificute.
There are several other industrious neonle who are mt-
plying to their poisonous Hash all that I publish about my
Kever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Mularin, except the
