Labor is altogether unreliable in
Perry. Cooks cannot be kept in the
kitchen longer than their pleasure dic
tates, and it is harder work to get
some one to cut up a load of wood
than it would be to cut it youtself.

Messrs. Lamar, Rankin & Lamar,
Gentlemen :—A member of my family
whom I teared had Consumption has
been entirely cured by the use ol
Brewer’s Lung Restorer. His con
dition was very alarming to all of ns
and we did every thing we could think
of to benefit him, without success,
until I got him a bottle of your Lung
Restorer. He began to improve atter
tlie first dose aud before he had taken
two bottles was entirely cured, where
I feared no cure was possible, and I
most cheerfully recommend it to. a'l
who have any affections of tbe Lungs.
He was coughing and spitting all the
time, so incessantly that it prevented
his deeping at nieht and what little
sleep he got did not refresh him in the
least. Had but little appetite and
since he began the nse of Brewer’s
Lung Restorer has slept well and his
appetite is very-much better. I have
never seen anything act so promptly
and effect a cure iu so short a time.
Wishing you great success and hoping
the above may influence many to try
Brewer’s Lung Restorer where they
need a medicine to strengthen and re
store the Lungs to a healthy condition.
I am Very Respectfully,
Mrs. E. J. Williams,
72 Washington Av. near Wesleyan
Female College.
