t;entlenten,—I reeeived your first paellaiio of
medicine two weeks .ago, and have faithfully
uSet it over since, I now wish to bear my testi-
mony to its excelloneeat a remealyfor chronic
diseases. With unqualified joy I declare, that,
during my long years of ill-Imelth I never ex-
perienced such benefit from any remedy1 used.
in the •t r iEMl, thirty years atm, my health

heart, depression of spirits, and so unable to
etude' that I had to give up my profession of
teneliing. God only knows what misery I en-
dured in those years. I soon found out that I
was uaying fur some of my youthful follies.
As was natural, I began using all the patent
medicines of the Any' but all to little purpose,
I also consulted "specialists" of every school,
and though some horsed oto up for a time, yot
I was never cured. Under one eourso,1 sornbb-
ed and evashed so much that my skin was nearly
worn through, and it only made mo weaker,
So I went on in a partially broken down c on-
dition lfor years; my intellect blighted, and
manhood marred, which of late years has been
about lost entirely. I had about given up all
hops. when oro day last July, I was reading
the Presbyterian of Toronto, and my oyes
caught the words "complete revolution in
medicine." Ah, thought I perhaps a gracious
God, to whom 1 have been praying for help,
had something for mo here. em read, and saw
two very honest like letters from two ladies in
Toronto. who had been cured of long standing
complaints. I obtained ilio book and not only
read, but studied it. and thought about it as
well as I could at the time, 1 h'td faith to
believe Dr. Jordan's theory to be.the truo one.
And now, having tried the remedy for only two
weeks, I thank Clod that I was ever directed to
it; for I certainly believe it was providential.
I am. so far, filly satisfied with it as a simple,
easy to be taken, safe and effectual remedy. I
felt almost as tared as nny man could wish to
fool. Low spirits all gone, get up in the morn-
ing singing—could sing all day—beginning to
feel that vigor and lightheartedness which
makes life so pleasant, ;My head is splendid.
Oh what comfort I have in reading now. I do
not expcat,'tis true. to bo made into a young
man (being now o5), but I'firmly believe I will
bo cured of my ills after using the remedies
for a leneth of time corresponding to my ago
and to ng standing complaints. The medicines
I had taken in the past were dreadfully strong,
and many a wry face I made in using them,and
always had to increase the :dose- I often felt
myself injured by them otherwise; and no won-
der as I took so much. But not:so this medi-
cine. It is perfectly harmless, o;,orating so
gently and yet with such wonderful effect, as
really to make one wonder,how such a simple
looking, almost tasteless substance could have
such power But it is a builder up of tho poor
broken down body,:and brings joy to many a
hoast. , So I advise all who aro afflicted with
sickness which baffles all the "old schools" not
to allow any unroasonablo predjudioo to hinder
them from giving itheso remedies a fair trial,
and I am sure you will not repent it.
,r.Thisis no "blow merely tohelp the Histoge-
nctic Association, but I am speaking what I
soletvlt,vbelieve to be true concerning myself
so far ftslhave gone, and for the benefit of the
. suffering, for whose aid lbelieve God has raised
up ani Prospered Dr. J. Eugene Jordan.

GENTLEMuN,—I take pleasure in giving
my testimony to your well known MIN-
ARD'S LINIMENT, as I feel that it saved
my life. In the winter of 1887 I was at
tacked by a severe pain in my left side
caused by a fall from a building during Um
provi,aus summer. I got relief every time
it was bathed with the MINARD'S LINI
MENT and eventualy cured'by the use of
a few bottles. This liniment has made
some wonderful cures.
