HER SPEECH RESTORED.

Clair View Inverell. The Chos. A. Vogeler Company, Baltimore. Dear Sirs, — I beg to acquaint you of a marvellous cure following on the use of St Jacobs Oil, wh chhas taken place m my o*n family. lam a poor man with eight children, and for years have been a great sufferer from sciatica My wife was advised to try St Jacobs Oil. She procured a bottle, and I hare been using it of late with good results ; but it is of my eldest daughter, 13 years of aR e, that I wißh to tell you. She retired one nmht about four months Jugo m her ununl good health, but the neit morning she could iotspoak. My wife took her to Inverell to ccc -Q r t who said hor throat was ulcerated low down, and ho prescribed cod liver oil and other medicines ; and also advised her to inhale the fumes of Stockholm tar, saying eho might never recover her speech again. At the expiration of a fortnight, the medicine having been finished, another visit to the doctor was made, who Bgain prescribed for her, but he t ld my wife he had no hope of h; r ever b"ing able to speak again. We began to despair, but the day I used the oil — abont three months after she vras taken ill — I persuaded my wife, after we had retired, to use the oil. Bhe got up and gave the girl two dropi m water, and rubbed it on the throat. Next moraine we were delighted to find that she could talk as well as ever, and has been able to do bo ever einoo. I remain gentlemen, gratefully yours, JAB. R. HATCHER. [Adv.] (5)
