HUNTINGDON, March tl, 1810.
For the benefit of sufferers like me and oth
ers, I do freely declare the following fact,
have suffered mote or less for twenty years with
the most desperate Rheumatism, and also far 18
years at times with Most desperate pain in the
stomach, which at times seemed to expand as if
it would burst also for many years I was ter
ribly troubled with cramps in my legs—indeed
I can't describe all my sufferings for so long a
time. I could do no .bilsinessfor the last ten
years, nor had I a: single good night's sleep for
the last five years. I never could find any relief
worth mentioning, until last November, when I
met with the Extract of American Oil, and to
my HO IlltleltilifpriSe I got relieved of all in a
short time and to this day. I respectfully in
'Cite all who choose to call and see me upon the
matter; such can tell much more. I can say
it has done wonders on others around me in va
rious complaints. If ever an article was put
out honestly, this is one. I know it sells rap
idly here. No family in the hind will be with
out it when they 00.3 know its use.
JOHN BUATOAVOIC

I do hereby certify to the following facts:—
That I have suffered for five years past with
pain in my back, spine and kidnies, end never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last November I gut a bottle of
the Extract of Arnerivan Oil, I used it inward
ly, and to my surprise it removed the complaint
in a short time. From what I have seen and
heard of its wondrous effects upon others in des
perate cases, 1 can freely recommend it, end be
lieve it to be worth all the humbugs in the land,
and do believe it will do all for whet it is so
highly recommended. C. Corrs.
LIMISTOWN, Attach 1950.
1 never before gave a certiffeate, but this 1
give with a clear conscience for the benefit of
sufferers like myself. I suffered with the Ery
sipelas or St. Antony's Fire, mixed with Tet- -
ter, so pronounced by my doctor, for 12 years.
'The suffering I ,endured is beyond description.
At limes all nay hair came off any head. During
this time 1 had no relief for more than a few
!lays at a time. Last October 1 got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, used it inwardly
and outwardly, and to my great astonishment
and my neighbors, 1 got clear of itha a short
time, end to this time I bare noticed its won
drous effects on other desperate complaints. I
do assure nay friends and the public that it in

How important that the causes should be known

" Da. A. M. kfaunictau—My Dear Sir: ' The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion,' for
which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came
safely to hand. I would not have troubled you with
these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense
of gratitude, for myself and wife, to give utterance
to our sincere and heartfelt emotions.
"My wife has been perceptibly oinking for some
three years or more, in consequence of her greet an.
gaish and suffering some months before and during
confinement; every mccessive one more and more
debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in int.
minent danger, and which was. on the lest occasion,
despaired ot !supposed that this mate of things was
inevitable, and resigned myself to meet the worst.
At tide time (now about two months) I heard your
book highly spoken of. as containing some matters
reaching my case. On its receiiit and perusal, I can
1110 i express to you the relief it a.ll,rded my distrnised
mind and the joy its pages imparted to my wife, on
learning that the greet discovery of M. M. Deso
meting provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to
me which I little conceived was possible. No peen.
Diary consideration can ever repay the obligations I
am under to you for having been the means of im
parting to us the matters contained in' The Married
Woman's Private Medical Companion.' But for
this, ere another year would have passed over my
head, in all human probability my wife would have
been in her grave, and my children left motherless."
