If the following letters had been written by your best known and most esteemed neighbors they could be no more worthy of your confidence than they are now, coming, as they do, from well known, intelligent and trustworthy citizens, who, in their several neighborhoods, enjoy the fullest confidence and respect of all who know them.
Out of thousands of similar letters received from former patrons, we have selected these few at random, and have to regret that we can find room only for this comparatively small number in this volume.
NERVOUS AND GENERAL DEBILITY.

_Gentlemen_--I am thankful to-day that I can honestly say, that as a result of your few weeks' treatment, I feel better now in both body and mind than I have for fifteen years. Before I consulted you I felt more like taking my own life to end my miserable feelings than I felt like living; I had given up all hopes of ever being any good to myself or anybody else, but, thank God, your encouragement, and kind words, and skillful treatment have made a different man of me.
Before I consulted you, I took no interest in business nor any thing else in the world, which the wise Creator has placed in this world for all mankind to enjoy; but now my mind is clear, and I take an interest in business and enjoy life better than I ever did before.
Now, may God bless you for your good and skillful treatment of me; and, also, may this be the means of inducing others who are to-day suffering from the same complaint to at once consult you, as I can assure them that they will receive full benefit of your kind attention, for moderate charges.
Yours respectfully, T.M. CARSON, P.O. Box 145, Swissvale, Allegheny Co., Pa.
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
SPECIAL TREATMENT, FOLLOWED BY USE OF "GOLDEN MEDICAL DISCOVERY."
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Ltd., 3, New Oxford Street, London, W.C.:
[Illustration: F. Macey, Esq. ]
_Gentlemen_--I now write to describe the benefit which I have received from your treatment. For some time I had been suffering from nervous debility, and before placing myself under your treatment my trouble was very severe; and not understanding the nature of my disease, I did not know what to do until I saw a few testimonials of your wonderful cures, when I was led to at once communicate with you; and after two months'
special treatment from you, I was greatly relieved, and was advised to then use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, which I did for a time, and am happy to say that I now feel like another man, and am troubled no longer with the old symptoms, and I thank God, and also the kind gentlemen that have been conducting my case, for the treatment and advice which I have received. I also think the "Golden Medical Discovery" is a most wonderful medicine, and I shall feel it my duty to speak well of your medicines and treatment to all fellow sufferers I may meet. I am,
Yours truly, F. MACEY, Faversham, Kent, England.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, 663 Main St., Buffalo, N.Y.:
_Gentlemen_--Two and a half years ago, after seeking in vain for health at the hands of local doctors, I began treatment with you for "Nervous Debility of a complicated nature. Ag a result thereof I now give this testimonial, having been changed from a person of rapidly declining health--often despondent and with no inclination to work of any kind, to one of sound constitution who enjoys life and is once more able to battle his way to success in life; and it is now about two years since the change occurred, showing it to be permanent.
I cannot say too much in praise of your methods, and careful, courteous attention which myself and others have enjoyed at your hands; and that the good work may go on to an unlimited extent is my earnest wish.
Yours sincerely.
A.E. NORCROSS, (General Delivery), Detroit, Mich.
NERVOUS DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA, HEART DISEASE.
[Illustration: Miss Greenwell. ]
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:
_Gentlemen_--I feel very grateful to you, and to our all-wise Creator for restoring my health. When I first wrote to you I was a miserable sufferer with nervous debility, dyspepsia, heart disease, also female weakness. I was so nervous and low-spirited I could not sleep, in fact I was just about as weak and low as I could be, and could scarcely drag around; but, after persevering for about twelve months, occasionally with the help of your kind treatment and advice, I once more begin to feel like myself again. Words cannot tell how I do appreciate my health.
Thank you, gentlemen! I shall never forget the kind business-like manner in which you have treated me. May God bless you, inasmuch as your heart's desire is to do good to suffering humanity.
Very truly, Miss K. GREENWELL, No. 253 Twenty-second St., Ogden, Utah.
NERVOUS DEBILITY--RESULT OF INDISCRETION.
[Illustration: C.H. Goodsell, Esq. ]
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:
_Gentlemen_--For the last year and a half I was troubled with Nervous Debility. I tried some medicine that I bought from the druggist, which did me little or no good; so, hearing of the World's Dispensary Medical Association, of Buffalo, I wrote them about my case, and in reply, they said they were sure they could cure me. At that time I was weak in my arms and legs, had poor sight and, worst of all, I was very nervous and bashful. I could not sleep at night and feel refreshed in the morning. I could not look any one in the eye without feeling ashamed.
I have now taken two months' treatment and I feel sound in mind and body; but to be sure I am going to take another month's treatment from these same doctors in Buffalo.
I recommend all men who are afflicted with any disease similar to the one of which I have just been cured to apply to the World's Dispensary Medical Association, and if they take treatment from these doctors they will surely be cured. I cannot praise them too much for what they have done for me.
Yours truly, C.H. GOODSELL, No. 151 S.W. Temple St.

NERVOUS AND GENERAL DEBILITY.
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL, ASSOCIATION, 663 Main St., Buffalo, N.Y.:
[Illustration: T.W. Knapp, Esq. ]
_Gentlemen_--I had been out of health for a period of about three years.
Suffered with pains in the head, catarrh, chills, fever, nervousness, and general debility. Spent about all the money I had in order to obtain relief, but received little, if any good. I was scarcely able to work, when in July, 1887, I wrote to your Association, describing my case. You replied, advising me, and prescribing a course of treatment, which you sent to me. After taking but a part of these medicines I began to feel a great deal better; could sleep very much better and was able to resume work as usual, but still suffered some pain in head, and my buck was lame and weak. I continued treatment for some three or four months, until all remaining symptoms of distress and weakness had disappeared.
At the end of about eight months I found I felt as well as I ever did.
My weight had increased fully twenty pounds, and I could safely say that you had effected a perfect cure in my case.
Respectfully yours, THOMAS WESLEY KNAPP, Myhart, Allen Co., Ind.
NERVOUS AND UTERINE DISEASE.
WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, 663 Main St., Buffalo, N.Y.:
[Illustration: Mrs. Williams. ]
_Gentlemen_--I was sick for over three years with nervous complaint, with blind dizzy spells, palpitation of the heart, pain in the back and head, and at times would have such a weak tired feeling when I first got up in the morning, and at times nervous chills. At other times, I would feel as if there were a tight bandage around my forehead.
