Dear Btr» -During u residence of some ten •years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found yonr vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable wraeily for that fearful scourgh, the Ciioiern. In nduitniaterfog the medicine, I found it most effectual to give a teiitqroonful of I’aiu Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with rnigar; then, aftW about fifteen in mutes, begin, to give atable-, spootffnl of tire same niixtnre every minute until relief was obrnuied. Apply, hot applieaf ions to' the extremities. Bathe the stomach with I’aiu Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os those wire had the cholera, and took the luodiciuafaith fully in the why statctl above, eight <nlt of ten recovered. Yours, truly, K TELFORD. If an attack with Ilia;rlußa, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, d<m,'t delay thet use of flu-, rain Killer. Sold by all Mwdiciue rttmlers Prise, 25 cents, 50cents, and $1 pel bottle.
