I then commenced to use it In my family for general use and we depend on it, for breaking up cold, neuralgia and most of tlje troubles one'a family la aubject to. Four yeara ago, just three months be fore the birth of one of my children, I was taken down with measles, which weakened me greatly. My stomach would not retain a thing nd I wai in a serious condition. With the consent of my physician, I again started on Mrs. Joa Person's Remedy. I commenced to build up at once, and I believe It carried me safely through my trouble.
