Mr*. Nettleton graphically relates the particular* of her own case, which will doubtless be of interest to many of lady readers: "I had been an intense sufferer for many yean from dyspepsia, liver and kidney trouble*, when s little pamphlet placed in my hands, and, although at that time I had been bedridden for more than six months, I determined, after reading tome of the wonderful testimonials therein of esses similar to mine, which had been completely cured by the timely us Vogeler’s Curative Compound, to

even benefit me, and I had almost given up all hope of ever being well again. It is most interesting and, in fact, marvelous to relate, that the very first dose of fifteen drops relieved me. It was not long before I was able to get up end shoot; three months from taking the first dose I was enjoying better health than I had been for fourteen years. I continued well until s few months back, when I was token ill again, my troubles being dyspepsia and constipation. I bad a doctor attending ifie for a month, but continued to grow worse, until I again found myself bedridden, when I bethought myself of my old medicine, Vogeler's Curative Compound, which I immediately seat for and took in place of the doctor's medicine; at that time I had not had a movement of the bowels for five days, but Vogeler's Curative Compound soon put me on my feet again; in fact, completely cured me a second time, but, of courae, this attack was not os bad as the first, yet I fullj believe I should not have been alive today had it not been for Vogeler’s Curative Compound. If I h-d only thought to hare taken it when m/ last illness took place I should not only have been saved much suffering, but

a 175 doctor’s bill."

Mrs. Nettleton said: "I have recommended Vogeler’s Our*tire Compound for indigestion and ecsems, and in every case it has proved s cure, beyond doubt. Mr. Swinbank, our chemist, has sent me the of no end of people who hare been
