procured your Golden Medical Discovery and Pur¬ 
gative Pellets, and have taken six bottles, and to¬ 
day I am ln good health, aU those ugly ulcers 
having healed aud left my skin in a natural, 
healthy condition. I thought at one time 1 could 
not be cured. Although I can hut poorly express 
my gratitude to you, yet there is a drop of )oy in
