I grew tired of trying different medical men and remedies, of which I had tried almost every knows one but yours and one day some eighteen months ago a gentleman came into the shop where I was employed. He remarked "Jack, you look very ill," and you may depend I was. He added, Will you take some medicine if 1 procure it; I replied, I will take anything. He brought me a bottle of your Antidote, and I took it accordingly as directed, and to my delight I began to get well, and after taking three large bottles I was a new man, thanks to your great discovery. I always keep it by me, and find a few doses occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with it that such a medicine merits. You can make what use you like of this.—l remain, yours, etc. J. H. Paulino, Masterton. May be obtained from Messrs Fletcher Bros., and Shearman Bros., Ashburton.
