In these days of fraud and deception
" in: advertising, it is not strange that
. sick and suffering humanity are looking.
for something besides ridiculous boasts
and claims. They are seeking facts and
proof ——absolute proof.

An honest medicine, making honest
claims and bringing honest testimonials
.before the public, should influence the
people largely.

The St. Albans Remedy 00., of St.
Albans, Vt., claim the following and
gratifying correspondence as to the
merits of Green Mountain Renovator as
positively unsolicited.

They prove it :

, Deacon H. E. Bentley, First Congre-
gational Church, St. Albans, Vt, and
Freight Agent Central Vermont Rail-
road, testifies to this effect under oath
as Notary Public.

Following is the correspondence ac:
tually received from Camp Thomas,
Lytle, Ga. First under date June 2d,
1898. -

“ Gentlemen—The Green Mountain Boys
want a case of your Green Mountain Ite'no-
vator, by express, C. O. 1)., at once. We
can’t think of anything that will do us more
good than the Renovator.

“Gentlemen —Your Green Mountain Ren-
ovator which I ordered was received some
time ago, and I can only say that its distri-
bution among the boys was the means of pre-
venting many severe cases of malarial fever
and sickness from general debility.

You know there are any number of doctors
and medicines in camp, but the boys cheer-
fully accord thc first prize to Green Mountain
Renovator. It braced us up wonderfully and
seemed to fortify us against the attacks of the
malarial fever and other diseases prevalent
here. Undoubtedly Green Mountain Reno-
vator has saved many lives, and the Green
Mountain Boys thank you one and all.”

They possess the original prescrip-

commending it to the afflicted everywhere——

natural “wear and tear" of life—or from per-

the Renovator has in my hands—both in civil
life, and while in military, superseded all
other medicine. And I can conscientiously
say to the laity, and to brother physicians not
acquainted with it, that if they give it a trial
they 'will praise, instead of condemn it.
Yours hastily,

 

If life has destined you to travel
along the course of disease and suffer-

to recovery—pure and rich blood, and
if you would make a quick and safe

journey, try the cleansing agencies from
the fields and forests of the Green
