Chattanooga, Tenn., July 27,1888. The Swift Specific Co.. Atlanta, Ga.; Gentleman- -Five years ago one of the best physicians in Evansville , Ind., was treating me for a bad case of blood poison. I did not improve to please mm or myself either and was on the poiut of changing physicians, when I was offered a place in Chattanooga. In telling my physician goodbye, I asked him about your medicine. He hesitated a minute, and then suggested that I try it. Immediately on reaching Chattanooga I purchased three bottles of Dr L. H. Wilson, druggist. I began to improve at once and in six months there was not one of the hundred sores left on my body. I took a dozen or two more bottles, and to-day am as healthy as ever. I am ready to answer all inquires and sub¬ stantiate this statement to any who may address me at Chattanooga Tenn. Frank H. Meade. Treatise on blood and skin diseases mailed free.
