Had no idea Vitadatio could do for her what it has done. " 10th April, 1899. M For a number of year* I was troubled With indigestion, and what those of our sex know as general .weakness in various forms and ways, accompanied by the usual gloomy foreboding* and, of course, as I find now, ! unnecessary cares of mind, producing all kinds of discouraging anticipations, in which I the oommon impression would constantly intrude itself that life was not the flowery bed of ease that one used to read and sing about in one's childhood's hours, My food ' did not nourish fche body, and I carried about with me, much to my discomfort, au emaoUted form, and the common remark of my friends was, * How il) you always look.' Although 1 would nob admit the truth of their opiaien, yet my, own ooneeious feeling assured me of the truth of their observation. There were many other ailments which kept m 4faeek my- former vitality and buoyancy of spirits, which need only be hinted at in . ft note such, as this. .In this state of general debility I was advised to take a course of Webber'* Vitadatiol I took it regularly for about six wieeke, asd took, in all, the contents of six Urge bottleß. Theae were from the first a great source of help and relief, and I began to put on ftaah at the rate oflilb per week, and I now enjoy the very best) of health. To any of my own ccx, espeoiaUy those who are troubled with en nui, from whatever csvuse arising, I verily believe a course of Vitadatio will give them "baftk the blessing of good health, such as I enjoy, and for which I desire to be truly thankful. Vitadatio shall always have my strong recommendation.—Yours gratefully, M. Sxboeanz, Kedfern, Sydney, hew Soulb Price 5« 6d and 3s 6d per bottle. U. W. HALL.
