Had no idea Vitadatio could do for,her t what it has done. , .. " 10th April, 1899 | " For a number of years I was troubled j with indigestion, and what those of our sex know as general weakness m various forms and ways, accompanied by the usual gloomy forebodings and, of course, as I find now, unnecessary cares of mind, producing all kinds of discouraging anticipations, m which the common impression would constantly intrude itself that life was not the flowery bed of eaee that one used to read and sing about m one's childhood's hours, My food did not nourish the body, and I carried | about with me, much to my discomfort, an. emaciated form, and the common remark of my friends was, ' How ill you always look.' Although 1 would not admit the truth of their opicion, yet my own conscious feeling assured me of the truth of their observation. There were many other ailments which kepi id check my former vitality and huoyaocy of spirits, which need only be hinted at m ' \ a note euch as this. la this state of general debility I was advised to take & course of Webber's Vitadatioi I took it regularly for about six weeks, and took, iv all, the contents of six large bottles. These were from the firac e> great source of help and relief, and I began to put on flesh at the rate of l£lb per week, and I now eDJoy the very best of health. To any of my own i=ex, especially those who are troubled with en nui, from whatever cause arising, I verily believe a course of Vitadatio will give them back the blessing of #ood health, such a& I enjoy, and for which I desire to be truiy thankful. Vitadatio shall always have my strong recommendation.—Yours gratefully, t&. Sergeant, Eedfem, Sydney, New South Wales. Price 5s 6d and 3s 6d per bottle. E. W. HALL.
