be seen for many a mile, rising on dis-

The church proper consists of .the three
concentric circles ; the first, a kind of
verandah, wherein the congregation

where the priests perforin their cere-

ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE OF
CONSUMPTION IN CANADA.
MESSRS YOUNG & CHAMBERLIN,-S rs, I
feel it a duty I owe to you, as well as to the
public to inform you of the most° wonderful
cure of Consumption, accomplished in my
person, by the use of °the Great Shoshonees
i{emedy and Pills. 1 coughed a great deal
day and night, - expectorating a great quanti-
• ty of matter, and had a great pain about my
left lung. I had cold chills every day, and
severe night sweats every night, and between
the racking cough and great sweating, I was
almost deprived of sleep ; by these miseries
as well as the loss of appetites- I was so re-
duced that I could hardly stand alone. I
was under the care l of a physician for a
length of time, an4. finding no relief, I
tried different receipes, but all without any
good effect. Squire Peterson of Bath, re-
commended nie to use the Great Shoshonees
Remedy ; I procured three bottles at once,
with the Pills. so soon as 1 commenced using;
it I began to get better, and when I had`fin-
ished this complement, the cough, expectora-
ti)n of matter, pain about the lung, chills,
sweating, &c., left me ; and by continuing
its use I became strong and healthy. It is
now over two months since I quit the reme-
dy, and there have been no symptoms of the
disease returning, and I have been, and am
now, healthier and.better than I have been
for years. 1 trust you will make this known
to the public, that they may be aware of the
peculiar virtues of this truly wonderful In-
dian Remedy.
