Portrait of Ma. GOFF, of Buchs Dollage, Baltney
England, who writest. Dear Chester,
For five years I suffered greatly hom an loerated teg, which at one time was covered with open wounds from knee to toot, there being as many as 21 wounds in it at once. I tried all sorts of preparations, and attended the infirmary, but nothing seemed to do ne any good and I wan sont away from the Intemary as Incurable. One day my daughter saw Clarke's Blood Mixture advertised in a newspaper and read it to me, and I decided to give it a trial. Finding the first lot was doing me good i persevered with it, and after having four bottles my leg was completely healed: All this happened some eight years ago, and have had no return of the trouble ever since."
