A MOST WONDERFUL CURE.
Terrible Ulceration and Falling of Womb. Dropsy and other Complications.
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:
Gentlemen—I am a farmer's wife. My husband hired hands to work on his farm—I had them to cook for—to wait upon, and my family to care for. I worked very hard till my health and strength gave way. Six years ago the "turn-of-life" began in the worst form with other disease which I knew not; I had a severe misery in my back, pain in my head; the monthly flow became so excessive—came on too often; lasted eleven days. When the flow would stop then there would be yellow discharge of thick mattery appearance. I had bearing down in the lower portion of the womb—great pain all through my body: the pain in my womb was more like "labor-pain" than anything I can compare it to; I had palpitation of the heart, light chills, hay fever; had pain in my stomach like colic. My womb was very low down; the mouth was a large hard knot—was so sore I was compelled to have a soft seat to sit on; severe pains in my thighs; pain down the sides of the abdomen; pain in my breast, pain between my shoulders; my bowels costive; my nervous system prostrated; my digestion impaired; I had a desire to urinate all the time, could not pass only a few drops at a time; on standing a few hours, it would form a crust on the chamber—red, grainy substance; I was bloated all over my body. My feet and legs were swelled tight, and I was in so much pain day and night I could not sleep; I could not eat any food only a little sweet milk and a little corn-bread; I lived in this way for four years; I could not walk across the room. I was treated by four of the best doctors in the land; the first three gave me no relief—the fourth built up my health to some extent; none of them could cure me—none of the four could regulate the menstrual flow, they could not cure those offensive discharges. I was given up to die by all four of them; my family and friends expected every day I would die.
I got one of your Memorandum Books; I read it carefully, and I was hoping all this time for some relief—I hoped all the time for relief. My husband decided to write to you—ask your advice, believing you could give me relief; though I felt ashamed to tell a gentleman, a doctor I never saw, those things concerning my afflictions; but I was suffering terribly. I hoped for relief and I found it. I am happy to tell you I am well. I was spared to be cured by your good advice and good medicine and to spread your fame.
When I received the book you sent me and a letter telling me what to take, and what it would do for me, I was very feeble; I had just got up from one of those bad spells—so weak that I could not sit up for more than an hour at a time. My husband went and got the medicine and a syringe. I began its use, as you advised, and took the medicine as you directed; I have taken your medicine seven months; the first month my improvement was slow; I began to have strength; my pain began to banish; my appetite began to come; I commenced to sleep sound and the bloating began to go down; the pain in my head was gone; palpitation of the heart, also the misery in my back disappeared; the pain in my womb began to banish; the first time the monthly flow appeared, it was controlled—it was regulated—it went so light with me that I could go all the time without a cane. I have not had one spell to confine me to bed in seven months; I have done all the cooking for my family all the year; the pain in my stomach disappeared; the yellow discharge also—the bearing down banished. I have no pain, no aches, no bad feelings. I feel better to day, than I have in ten years. I now enjoy life, enjoy my family, enjoy my friends. I enjoy the pleasure of telling my friends who cured me, and what medicine it was that cured me; he should have the honor. It is Dr. Pierce!
I was at death's door when I began to take his medicine, and followed his advice. It was his "Favorite Prescription," "Golden Medical Discovery" and the "Pleasant Pellets" that cured me. I also used the lotion, or wash advised, with a syringe.
Now, I wish you to accept my best wishes, and hearty thanks for what you have done for me.
