INCORRECT DIAGNOSIS.

TONIC PRESCRIBED FOR WELLKNOWN SYDNEY MAN WHO HAD LOST THIRTY POUNDS IN

WEIGHT.—WORMS THE CAUSE

The striking case of Mr. G. B. Kenton, of li Sir John Young's Crescent, Sydney, N.S.W., and connected with a well-known George Street, wallpaper house, illustrates two things: One. that doctors are not infallible, and tne ether that adults are troubled! with worms just as children are, and that Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets are a mo3t effective remedy for this most unpleasant complaint. The letter of Mr. Eentoi. is purely voluntary and freely given, and simply states tho facts, which we will at any timo confirm.

"Some time ago I began losing weight in an alarming manner," writes Mr. Ronton, "so much eo that I went to see a doctor who examined me and came to the conclusion it was due to overwork and worry. I continued to lose, weight and also suffer from peculiar internal pains. I became very anxious at the continued loss of weight, and thinking I might be going into a decline went to a second doctor, • who examined me thoroughly and gave about the same opinion as tho former one had done, ana prescribed a tonio. One night going home in the train I read one of your advertisements giving symptoms of people who have worms. The symptoms given strongly coincided with my own, and I determined to test tho question. I accordingly procured a packet of your Comstock's 'Dead Shot' Worm Pellets and took eight tablets and in 'the morning four Dr. Morse's Indian Boot Pills, and to my intense satisfaction and relief passed two very large stomach worms. I took them in a glass and showed tliem to the doctor who had last examined' me, and who had prescribed the Tonic, and it is needless to pay he vos surprised at the result. Altogether I lost thirty pounds in two months, due to these worms, and you may believe me I was thoroughly alarmed, thinking I might have consumption. I regained all this lost weight • immediately I rid my system of the worms, and am in splendid health at present. ' These are the simple facts which speak for themselves, and I shall be only too pleased to confirm them to any porson who doubts their truth. You have my permission to use this for publication." Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets are a purely medicinal preparation for the eradication of Worms in children and adults. For sale by all chemists and storekeepers.
