N ehanking tho P.iblic for their liberal mippor' during fhp short season I aye openpd *hi« Hnsinivs for the treat nenfc of ALL D(SHAKES by the syatem of HydropHthy, I have TtleMure in announcing that we have been successful in all cased taken into the establishment. Among the various cases, we have had congestion of the longs, chest, Hver,. stomach and kidney c> mplaiiiiH, lumbago, ciatica rheumatism, bronchitis, influtnz*, inflammation, bad legs, neuralgia, weak ness and debility. The following is one of the many testimonials :— Ohrißtchuroh, November 30, 1894 I have great pleasure in testifying to the good results obtained from the course of baths and treatment adopted at Mr Rule's Hydrbpathio Establishment. My wife had sustained a very Bevere attack of bronchitis and congestion of the lungs, and was evidently sinking from exhaustion when she became an inmate of the above institution. After a fortnight's baths and skilled nursing aha quite recovered %nd was able to resuma her domestic duties Too much cannot be said in praise of the care and attention .bestowed upon patients by Mb and Mks Rulr and trained nurses and both attendants engaged.— E H Brown. w. hlule, PROPRIETOR OISE WORD, ? COME to you with a small affair that you may need. In England, the Continent, and many foreign countries myseif and wares are well known, Many American,. families or. .thetr return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these. Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, arid when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask your confidence and make a reference to this Journal to'endorse that confidence. I do not think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure—an absolute one—for biliousness and headache that can be found in this year. The cure is so small in it self, and yft its comfort to you is so great—twenty minutes being its limit when relief comes—that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sugar is my remedy, in the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dr Haydock's New Livee Pill. It is old in the market of F.urr pc, but is new to North America. The pricf is as low as an honest medicine can be sold at, 25 cents.
