SEA/1'0Rn', March 22nd, MO, Mews. Lumaden & Wilson, Seaforth : Gentlemen -Fully eclat° viedgine the benefit I have received from the use of your "Equine Colic Curd," and the many ,s tint I hive relieved the severest suffering, and, I ean safely say in .some oases, saved the livee of ealutble home by its timely WC, 1 cheerfully give my. story of its or:gin, so that others may procure and hare ready, in ease of emer- gency, what has proved with me a never failing rem- cdy. Some 16 years ago, when about to sail from Liverpool for home with four valuable horses, I was advised to have, in exec of eicknees on the voyage, a botVe of a celebrated horse medicine, then exten- sively Used in England. I fortunately took my friend's advice, and procured a bottle, and found that in CAN of colic or inflammation in horses, it gave such instant and perfeet relief, that I was very e rry that I had not brought with nee a larger sup - p y, as I thought I would never be able to get any. thing to equal it. I had, however, s little left in my b ttie, which I took to you, asking you to analyze it nrpd. if poseible, make me ennething like it. In about two weeks r called on you, and got what leek - o4 identical, and, 1 con say with all confidence it ht s proved not only equal to the sample; but I be - Nye superior, as after testing it for 15 years, I have _never yet Been it fail, 49 farmer or horse dealer, in my opinion, ebouid be without it in his stable. FRANCIS COLEMAN, Lot 6, Conceesion 7, Stanley. SEAFORTH, June 27tb, 1900. Mr. Alex, Wilsen, Druggist, Seaforth Deer Sir -In recognition of the benefit I heve re ceived, I am glad to bear testimony to the value of your " Equine Colic Cure," although, as you Mate, you have advettieed the remedy in THE HURON Ex. PCIalTOR With PIA as strong teettmony in its favor as I can give. I moot say I never 'notieed it, or, 31 I read it at all, it must have made about as much lin- premien on my mind as patent medicine advertise- ments gensraily do. But now 1 would not be with. out your -medicine In my stable if it eost 83 per bot- tle, instead of 81. When out road grading in Tuck- ersmith township last week, one of my horses was taken ill. He was bloated as tight as it drum, land nOti able to stand I thought him a very sick horse indeed. I called at Mr. Coleman's houte to get some ginger and soda, but this well-known horseman said: "I can give you something better then that," and he produced it bottle of your "Collo Cure," We gave him a teaspoonful and a half, and in half an hour he had perfect relief, and was ready to eat his oats. I drove him eoven miles thet night, and in the morning he was all right and ready -for his work. Mr. Coleman gave me some of the history et thie medicin and I think you ought ta let every horse- flies in the country know about it, as so many valu- able horses are lost just for *ant of such a remedy at hand as your Is Equine Collo Cure" has proved I itself to be.
