About seven years ago my health began to fail, I was completely "run down," and my blood got in a bad condition, I suffered with severe pains in different parts of my body, so severe that I could not lie in any position long at a time, and in con sequence ot this I did not know what it was to get a good night's rest. I had been taking different mediciLes for the trouble for three years, but got no relief. Then I thought I would try Mrs Joe Per son's Remedy. I had no faith in it or anything else for my case, but I thought it would be a change. The third night after I started on it I got the first good night's sleep I had had in many months. I became hopeful. The Remedy relieved the terriible pains I had been Buffering from so long, and being able to sleep well at night, I soon began to feel like a new man. My appetite began to improve, I began to build up in every respect. I continued its use until I took about three doz en bottles, when I knew I was a well man. I have been cured four years, have never felt those pains since, and am now a perfectly healthy man4 nor have I ever needed any of the Remedy since. " W E Okiffik.
