I HAVE been Raying a good deal through the I papers of lato extolling JORDAN’S JOYOUS JULEP as a must wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; but for fear you may exclaim as Shakapeare when he said “You cram these words into mine ear against the stomach of my sense,” I now sub mit to you what persons say who have tried my Neuralgia Julep, with tho most complete aud satisfactory result; Columbus, January 16, 1875. Mr.Jordan:— l take great pleasure iu recom mending your JoyouH Julep for neuralgia, lias produced a most wonderful relief in one oj the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever lias had. She has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all the usual remedies with little suc cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per manent cure. It is only two days since we began tlie use of it, ami it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. Petermiiubo, Va., Jan. 15, 1875. Jno. 1.. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Ga.: Dour Sir—Having learned through my friend R. A. Bacon of your "J. J. J.” preparation for re lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc cess in my own family, in the worst case, too, that ever came under my observation, I now cue lose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con sider it too valuable a medicine to be without, though I have no immediate use fur it. Very truly yours, JAMES T. TOSH. Columbus, Ga., Nov. q, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan: Dear Kir—Your Joyous Julep for Neuralgia has been tried In my family, and with tlie most happy result,and I find iu it all you claim for its virtue. Ami I unhesitatingly re commend it to all who are suffering from Neural gia as something a little remarkable in its cura tive power. J. D. WORTHY. Oolumiiuh, Oa., Dec. 18,1874. Dr. 1. L. Jordan— Your medicine, Joyous Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having been a great sufferer from the pain, aud having tried tlie prescriptions of many physicians, yet all proved ol no effect until 1 tried four doses of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved, and have not been troubled since. S. C. MADDOX. Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4. 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan —Please send ine another bot tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have never found anything equal to it lor Neuralgia. Two doses cured urn almost instantly, and 1 can safely recommend it to do what you say. Very respectfully, &c., JOHN M. JEFFRYS. Fernandina, Fla., April, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Ga.: Dear lir—lt affords me pleasure to add my tes timony to the efficacy of your “Jordan’s Joyous Julep,” in giving iustant relief in Neuralgia; aud to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous. I was effected daily with Neuralgia, and since taking a few teaspooultils of your relief, two or more weeks have elapsed, and there are uo indi cations of return. I hope that the human fam ily will raceive a benefit commons urate with the importance of your discovery, and that your pecuniary reward will he equal to its well de served merits. Yours, respectfully, MRS. L. DOZIER Price 50c. Liberal discount to the trade.
