Neuralgia, Neuralgia, Neuralgia


Several Years ago I was a severe suffer [sufferer] from chronic Newralgia [Neuralgia], which made me feel wretched and miserable all the time. Sometimes it was in my head,sometimes in my shoulder, but it seemed to settle mostly in my left side. Around the region of my heart seemed to be affected so much, that it made me anxious and weary. I had a friend who thought there was nothing that Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy would not cure, and she persuaded me to use 1/2 dozen bottles. I did so, and it made a perfect cure of me.


Mrs. H.M. Sample. Hopewell, Mecklenberg Co. N.C. Dec. 1, 1896.
