Frongoch Issop, Llechryd, Cardiganshire, March 16,1896. "Gentlemen,—I write to thank you for the grea benefit I received through taking Clarke's BIoo," Mixture. I had suffered for over eighteen months from ulcerated sores on my leg. and was unable tci walk about the house without crutches. During tin above period I had been treated by doctors, and had tried all sorts of remedies, but none did me any good. At the latter end of last year I way, recommended to consult a noted person for sucl maladies in Glamorganshire; I went there and re- mained under his care for several weeks, but had to return home despondent, without having derived any benefit. A day or two after I returned home, Mr Jones, our police officer, called, and asked hom I was, and I told him my experience in Glamorgan- shire. He replied If the mischief is in the blood I know a certain cure, Clarke's Blood Mixture. After further conversation I made up my mind to give it a trial, and shall never forget the day. In less than six weeks, and before I finished taking the second bottle, I was perfectly cured, and never felt better in my life. Eve* since I have been able ta attend to my household duties without the slightest difficulty wliatever,-Yourii truly, "ANN THOMAS." "4, Greenfield-street, Govan, Glasgow, Jan. 5, 1897 Dear Sirs,-l feel in duty bound to add m) testimonial in favour of Clarke's world-famed Blood Mixture. I have suffered for three years and six months with a dreadful sore on my upper lip and chin. I was forced to go to the Skin Hospital, in Elm Bank-street; they did not do any good to it. Then I tried most of all the principal institutions in Glasgow, and lastly the Skin and Cancer Institu- tion in St. Vincent-street, and paid one pound before receiving any advice, and the advice wai that he was afraid I would lose my upper lip I received treatment in this institution for one month, and received no benefit Then he told me he would have to take the lip off, but I would not consent, and of which I am a proud man to-day After this I went to the Western Infirmary, and was under a clever skin specialist I received treatment for 13 weeks, and received a little benefit, and came out and commenced working again at my occupation, but I soon got as bad as ever I then commenced with I Clarke's World-famed Blood Mixture,' and after taking five bottles was completely cured. But I still continued taking the Mixture till I had taken thirteen bottles You can make use of my name in any way you plea»e.—Yours truly, "WILLIAM PATERBON. THOUSANDS OF TESTIMONIALS For cleansing and clearing the blood from all impurities CLARKE'S BLOOD MIXTURE cannot be too highly recommended For Scorfula, Scurvy, Eczema, Bad Legs, Skin and Blood Diseases, Pimples, and Sores of all kinds its effects are marvellous. As this mixture is pleasant to the taste and war- ranted free from anything injurious to the most delicate constitution of either sex, from infancy to old age, the Proprietors solicit sufferers to give it a trial to test its value. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL.—Cleanse the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, and sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul-your feelings will tell you when.
