1 was taken with a weakness of the ancles, which
gradually, cturing the spring of 1867, extended to my
knees, and on up to my hips, and I became so weak
that I could not walk, but was confined to my chair.
For about two years. while tins weakness was coming
on me, and afterwards, I sought medicaladvice, employ-
ing, at difterent times, three doctor b, end medicines
differentkinds, prescribed by friends, be. tof no avail.
continued toget worse and worse, unte the summer
of 186S, when I was induced to try the great Shoshoness
Remedy byreading the cures performed, in a pamphlet.
At this tune I had begun tp feel the weakness in. erry
hands ; in fact I evas getting almost helpless. I have
taken two bottles of the Shoshoness 'Remedy and two
boxes of the pills and I am entirely reetored to health.
I never expected to get better, but streply tried the
medicine as a sort of forlorn hope. This case of mine
was not a private one. but known to all ,iny neighbors

only to say try the Shoslaoness Remedy ; I believe it
will cure you. MARY ANN DOUGiFtry.
