Mrs. Joe Person,
Madam: —Last year I wa3 afflicted
with some skin trouble affecting my feet,
pronounced by my physician to be
erythema. I was confined to ray room
for some two months, and was lame for
some six months or more. After trying
many remedies without effecting a cure,
I resorted to your remedy. After using
three bottles I began to improve, and
before I had finished the fifth or sixth
bottle, I was practically free of the trou
ble. Once since then there recurred
symptoms ot its return, when I again re
sorted to your remedy, and again the j
trouble disappeared. I believe lam in
debted to you for relief from a very
serious affliction.
Yours truly,
Hamilton C. Jones
