FELLOW CITIZENS OF EXETER !

(REPRODUCED BY PERMISSION.)
KNOW ye that the assertions which I made in regard to Stearns Wine of Cod Liver Oil have been positively proven to be true not only in this city, but throughout the Country. I have taken pains to make inquiries, and now take pleasure in publishing below a few of the replies which I have received concerning the good that has been accomplished by the use of Stearns Wine. Inasmuch as I positively declared that Stearns' Wine would cure DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA, BRONCHITIS, CONSUMPTION, NERVOUSNESS, HACKING COUGH, & state of being RUN DOWN, and would enable people to GAIN FLESH where it was needed, and that it was good for OLD PEOPLE, NURSING MOTHERS, PALE WOMEN, and GROWING CHILDREN, and so sure was I that Stearns Wine would do all this that I did offer to refund to anyone who bought Stearns Wine for any of the above purposes and was not satisfied with it, the cost that they paid me for the remedy. Read below for yourself what Stearns' Wine of Cod Liver Oil has done for people right in our midst --
