1. A. RHODES, ESQ : Dear Sir—As I took
roar medicine to sell on consignment. >ni
tnrc BO pay,' 5 1 take pleasure in stating its et-
V-ctaas reported to m* by three brothers w'a
use in this place, and their testimony : a lair
specimen ot' all I have received:
W. S- Cosun told ra-e l had taken nine
bottles ol' Christie's Ague Balaam. sd contin
ually run down while uing it until sov lungs
and liver wero Congested to that degree that
Wood discharged from my mouth and bowels,
so that all thought it impossible for ,e to live
through another chill. The doctors too did
all they could for me, but though I must die-
Nothing did any good until 1 got Rhodes' Fe
ver and and Ague Cure, which at once reliev
ed me of the distreis and nausea at my stom
ach and pain in my head and bowels, and pro
duced a permanent curs in a short time.''
H. M. Counts says: "I had been taking me
dicine ol is good a doctor as we have :n our
county, and taken any quantity of quinine
and specifics without any good result, from
25 August to 17th December. 3ut seeing how
nicely it operated on mv brother. I got a bnt
tl. of RHODES' FEVEK AND AGUE CUKE,
which effected a permanent cure by using two
thirds of a bottle."
S. M. Cos KM* was not here, but both tie
other brothers say his case was the same as H.
M's. Isold the medicine to tmin tlie soma
day, and th cure was a speedy from the seme
small quantity, and I might so specify. Yours
with respect. A. HUNTIN GTON.
The above speaks for itself. Good proof as
it is, it is of no better tenor than the vast i um
ber of like ecrt idea lea I have alreadv publish
ed. and tbs still greater amount that ia contin
ually penriog in ro me.
