'• I feel in duty bound to add^ mj 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 akin Hospital in Kim 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 Caucer Institution in St, Vincent-street, and paid one pound before receiving any advice, and the advice will tnat 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 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 13 bottles You can make use of my name in any way you please.—Yours truly, „ WILLIAM PATBBSO*.

"I send you this testimonial, for I have derived a great benefit by taking Clarke's Blood Mixture, after two years of great suffering with a very bad leg. I have been in a Birmingham hospital 18 months, and six months outpatient at another hospital at Birmingham. I was turned out in- curable, as I would not ^ave kff taken off. I was told to try Clarke's Blood Mature by a fnend of mine, so I sent for a large bottle, and by the time I had taken it I was able to go about on my c'iu.ttc J- "j*4 another bottle, and by the time I had finished it my ^g was quite well, and I am able to go to my work. I am a Birmingham mat., but am working at present in Halu^i ana J. am willing to answer any questions that anyone niaywish to askjfor I cannot speak too highly of it. I recommend it to all.
