, "FITS."

_Gentlemen_--My little girl was delicate from birth, nervous and
irritable. When three and one-half years old we discovered she had that
terrible disease "epilepsy," inherited from her father's family; she had
spasms or fits once in two or three days, and grew worse so rapidly that
in four months she had from four to eight fits in twenty-four hours.
Home physicians did no good, and just then one of your little pamphlets
came to me as they had come often before. As my need was great I wrote a
description of her case, and though your answer did not seem very
encouraging, I did not dare to lose any chance of saving my child, so I
commenced the treatment. On November 6, 1891, she had seven fits;
November 7th gave her your medicines; she had four fits that day, and
never one since. She took your medicines less than four months. She is
nearly six years old, a strong, hearty, bright child, attending school
every day.
What more can I say than that I thank Dr. Pierce and the Faculty of the
World's Dispensary Medical Association for having saved the life of my
child, and I thank God that he gave them the knowledge and skill to do
so.
Respectfully yours,
MRS. J. MCCARTY,
Gouldsville, Washington Co., Vt.

_Gentlemen_--My boy had been in bad health for a long time. We called
our home doctor, but he got no better. Finally he had the St. Vitus's
Dance, and our doctor did not know what to do. So I wrote to you and did
as you told me; I got two bottles of your "Favorite Prescription," and
one bottle and a half did the work all right. At that time, eighteen
months ago, his weight was 85 pounds, now it is 135 to 140; he is
fourteen years old.
Yours truly,

EPILEPSY.

_Gentlemen_--My daughter, Josephine E. Thulin, is now six and a half
years old. She had been afflicted with epilepsy for three and a half
years, and received treatment from three different doctors, and from one
especially, for the space of two years steady, without any benefit.
Before taking your treatment she had as many as six or seven spells a
day. The child could not have stood i
