So you see how the witch doctor can get just as 

 much'testimony for the marvelous power of his med- 

 icifies as we have given for the most popular patent 

 medicines, and, in my opinion, the one is quite as ef- 

 fective as the otht r.

 prove to be of any interest to your readers I may ven- 

 ture another at tome future time, on my experience 

 with a bicycle in the mission field.
