![attack of Erysipelas. So strong did it rage in me, that I was affected, from the :rown A my head to the soles of my feet, with violent inflammation, accompanied with a great discharge of hot water issuing from every pore. Rest I could not get, and I became a complete Lazar. At length the virulence of the disorder settled in my right leg, which was so swollen to a prodigious si/.e, and the inflammation so great, that it burnt like a furnace. By the advice of my friends, who had experienced good effects from taking the late Dr. Webster’s Diet-Drink, I was rnduced immediately to apply to it: and after taking a few bottles of that invaluable Medicine, my frame began to feel its good effects. From this period I persevered in taking the Diet-Drink, and no other Medicine. My body became cooler, the inflammation gradually decreased, and I became a wonder to myself: all the skin peeled off me, and an entire new skin formed, like that of an infant. So virulent was the disorder, that it even forced the nails from my hands and feet, and fresh ones came. It is impossible for me to speak too highly, or be sufficiently thankful that such a Medicine has been permitted to be discovered. “7 Walworth Villa, Surrey Square. “John Roworth.” [Mr Roworth further adds, verbally, it is impossible to fully describe what he has gone through during his affliction : the members of his own family, who were only occa¬ sional visitors, could not recognise him, in consequence of his swollen and distorted fea¬ tures; nor could they scarcely entertain the least hope of his recovery ] Reference to Mrs. Turner, 7 Aden Terrace, Stoke Newington, March 1858. FISTULA. “Sir—For the satisfaction of those who may be about to make trial of Dr. Webster's Cerevisia, I think it but justice to state, that while under the care of the celebrated Martin Van Butchell, for the cure of Fistula in Ano, being then in a very weak con¬ dition, I was advised by him to make use of your Medicine; and have no hesitation in affirming, it not only accelerated the cure of that complaint, but contributed very ma¬ terially to re-establish my general health, which had for a long time prior been in a declining state. 14 G. Jackson, Clerk to Swanson Miller.” “11, Bishopsgate St. Within. -- INDIGESTION. “Sir—From Oct. 1833, till the time of taking your medicine in April last, I can safely say I never experienced an hour’s comfort, through excessive indigestion. I slept badly, and rose unrefreshed. I had the advice of several eminent Physicians ; but no medicine was of any service, till by accident I met with one of your Pamphlets, and resolved to try the effects of the Cerevisia, which were indeed most surprising. A peculiar evacuation took place, which seemed to remove every complaint; and I am happy to say, I am nearly as well as ever. “ Robert Ireson.” “ Grange Road, Bermondsey. - “ South Street, Berkeley Square. “ Sir,—It is with gratitude that I inf rm you of the powerful effects of the Cerevisia in restoring me to health, after an illness of nearly three years from excessive Indigestion. After seeking the aid of several eminent men of the Faculty, but finding no permanent relief, I was advised to try your Diet-Drink, for which I shall ever have to be thankful, for, after taking nine botffes, my health is nearly as good as ever. -- “ William Osmond.” (Remarkable Case.) “Respected Sir—My case being of a very peculiar nature, and utterly hopeless for a great length of time, I think it requisite to acquaint you with the particulars. I first received a serious injury .in my right side, by being jammed against a wall by a horse. Medical means were resorted to; and 1 remained under the care of the Medical Gentleman who had been called in, till he admitted that the case was beyond his skill, and that I must seek further and better advice. This I endeavoured to do; and the second told me that I had been wrongly treated, as he saw by the prescrip¬ tions ; and that my case had been mistaken for a Liver Complaint. Hope revived; but, alas ! only to be again disappointed: for soon after, my Doctor not only advisea me to submit to go into Guy’s Hospital, but was kind enough to interest himself in obtaining for me an admission, where I was again treated for the Liver Complaint. In a short time my body began to swell The Doctors then concluded I was afflicted with the Dropsy. Still the disorder did not appear to yield to any medicine ; bat excruciating pains, night and day, without half-an-hour’s sleep at a time, for eleven weeks, ensued: and they at length recommended that 1 should be taken home, telling me to eat any thing I could fancy. For some time, every night was expected to b« my last. 1 tried country air for seventeen weeks, but was not at all benefited ; and became so corpulent, that I felt as if my body must burst.
