      BLA IR'S GOUT and RHEUMAT 1 C . PILLS . — The following testimonial is another proof , of the great efficacy of this medicine : — _ " 157 , New Bond-street , London , October 18 , 1850 . " Sir , —in acquainting you with the great benefit which I have experienced by talking Blair ' s Gout and Rheumatic Pills , I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly afflicted . About twenty years aincn I was first attacked by Rheumatic Gout in my hands and feet- I had previously been subjected to every variety of climate , having served in Canada in the 19 th Dragoons , and in Spain , under Sir John Moore , in the 18 th Hussars . I always procured the beat medical aid , but without obtaining any essential relief , and my Bufferings can be appreciated only by those who know aomething of this disease . It was duringone of those paroxysms , betweed twelve and thirteen years ago , that I was recommended to try Blair ' s Pills . I lost no tune in procuring a box , and before I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased , and in a few days I was in perfect health . From that moment , whenever I feel any symptoms of the disease approaching , 1 have instant recourse to this medicine , which to me ia so valuable that , were it not that the days of magic have ceased , I ahould certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause . Moreover , I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suffered ; but , on the contrary , I believe the tendency of Blair ' a Pille is towards its improvment . I have recommended the pill * to many friends , and the result has always been of the moat gratifying character . I am , Sir , youra respectfully , Gakkbt FostkbGill . To Mr . Prout , 229 , Strand . " _ ., „ -,, For every deacription of Gout or Rheumatism . Sciatica , Tie Douloureux , &c , BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLtt are a sovereign remedy , contain neither mercury , opium , nor any other dangeroua drug , require no care whatever in their ua « , and for rapidity of cure and complete aafety have not their equal in the world . — .
