But providential inspiration came to his aid {n the shape of & combination of medicines that not only completely restored the general health, but enlarged his wesk, gmaclated paris o natural size and vigor, and he now declares that any man who_will 'take the trouble (o send his name and address may have the method of this wonderful treatment free. Now, when I say free I mean absolutely without cost, because I want every weakened man 10 get the beaefit of my experience, Iam not a philantnropist, nor do I poseas an enthusiast, but there are thousands of men suffering the mental tortures of weskened manhood who would be cured st onca could they but get such a remedy as the one thai cured me. Do not try to study out how I can afford to pay the few postage-stamps necessary to mail the information, but send for it ana learn that there are a few things on earth that, although they cost nothing to get, are worth & fortune to some men and mean a life- time of happiness to mostoi us.
