RANSOM'S FAMILY RECEIPT BOOK,
188S.
Otar Receipts*
The following Cooking Receipts, except those designed expressly for inva¬
lids, have not appeared in any previous book. They are carefully selected
jfrom the best contributions cf persons skilled in each department, and have
(been thoroughly tested. The Painting and Dyeing Receipts, some of the
[Miscellaneous Receipts, the Receipts for Invalids, and the Rules, are so con¬
stantly useful that they are standard, and we continue them from year to year.
We shall continue to issue our book with new receipts every year. Sew or
bind them together, and you will need no other receipt book.
Qack 3? 11 tii tiers for last three years will be sent
on receipt of cent* in postage stamps. See
index on third cover page.

Our4 Medicines.
All the formulas of our medicines are the result of careful investigations
and experiments conducted by professional and scientific men, some of whom
were physicians regularly graduated from the first medical universities of the
United States.
To prove onr faith In the getinlneneso of an
our claims and the qualities of our Medicines,
we make the following propositions :
1st. For every certificate of cure published by us, which is not a genuine
copy of, or extract from, a letter , voluntarily written us by the person
whose signature is attached , we will forfeit the sum of One TllOU-
gatld Dollars, to be paid to any public hospital mutually agreed upon.
Heretofore we have usually inserted in our Receipt Book many of such cer¬
tificates, but deeming it desirable this year to explain more at length the
nature of certain diseases and action of the proper medicines, we have inserted
but very few for want of space. Many certificates will be found in pamphlets
around bottles, and also in back numbers of the Receipt Book. When mak¬
ing inquiries by letter of the writers of these certificates, always inclose a two-
cent postage stamp, and this will doubtless insure a reply.
We would here respectfully ask all those who have experienced great benefit
from our medicines to state to us the facts, thus through us giving hope to
other sufferers.
2d. Upon a proper request, when vie can be assured- of the good faith of
the inquirer, by personal reference or application , we will furnish a
correct list, showing the names of all ingredients of our medicines.
Neither of the above offers, we believe, was ever made by the proprietor of
any other Family Medicine in the world.

DR. TRASK was engaged for twenty years in a course of experu&gjits
upon the medical properties and power of vegetables, separate and combidfed.
At the age of seventy years he succeeded in presenting to the world, as the
result of his experiments, a combination of vegetable extracts, the power of
which, in removing diseases, is unequalled in the annals of medicine. Certain
it is that the remarkable and unprecedented success which has attended its
application in the cure of diseases stamps it at once as the greatest discovery
of the age, and calls for a trial and close investigation of its orooerties.
