The Doctor Subdues All — Mr. T. F. 



Bingham. Dear Sir:— I've used the "Doctor" 

 till its all Jtiubed up with bee-^lue, ami al- 

 thouirh at lirst si^--ht I thoug:ht I did not like 

 anythinyr so Uuxe. I eould not now beinduced 

 execjit by the direst poverty, to do with any 

 thinj: smaller. As a matter of "economy" 

 I mueli iinferthc "Doetor" to any of the 

 cheaper smokers, of which I have worn out 

 several. The " Doctor " has entirely cured 

 me, so that I am now a liin^'ham man, as my 

 wife alwa,vs has Ipoen. If the somewhat 

 vag'ue remark in your letter means that 

 nothinjr was charged for the Smoker sent, 

 e.vcept the reading- of your letter, I shall be 

 very glad of another "Doctor" forthe money 

 sent, so that my wife won't take mine from 

 me. Bees just boominja: on white clover. 

 Yours Truly, C. C. Miller.
