DESPONDENCY.

Nervous Prostration—Threatened with Consumption.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL, ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

Gentlemen—I have felt inclined to say to you, and your whole staff of physicians, and now do convey to you, my heart-felt gratitude for your able and skillful assistance rendered me in my afflictions. I had been for years a sufferer, and at times nearly despondent. I had been treated by the most able and skillful physicians that this north-western country could provide. I had paid them large sums of money and was finally given to understand that there was no hope for my cure. Your advertisements fell into my hands, which treated upon my case. I read and compared my case with the insight you so ably explained, so I was satisfied you understood your profession well. I started full of hope and as I reached Buffalo, after three days' travel by rail, some 1,500 miles, there was something that cheered me on. I made my way to your Invalids' Hotel. I was examined and pronounced curable. I was operated upon for a local affection that caused much of my suffering, the same day I arrived, and in ten days was discharged permanently cured. I have felt perfectly well ever since. I was nicely treated by the able nurses and attendants who were always gentle and kind.

I can cheerfully say to the public, that they need not hesitate in throwing themselves into your kind care in every case that is curable by the hand of man, and you will treat them honestly.

Hoping this may be of some benefit to some afflicted persons who may feel some diffidence in trusting themselves in your hands.

Yours respectfully, H. CUMMINS,
Eagle Lake, Blue Earth Co., Minn.
