No treatment of the physicians ever re lieved me, and I continued to grow worse and was unable to do my work. By the advice of my physician I commenced to take Milam on March Sth last. I am now far on the road to recovery, and feel that I will be entirely cured. Iam now at work and feel no inconvenience from it "I take i,rreat pleasure in giving this certificate and think Milam it a great medicine. Yours truly, J. W. PINCHBACK.
