troubled with shortneBs Of breath and great
tldtteting Of the heart, which has been very
distressing, aud has frequently been unable TO
leave her bed. The rupture was very large
and severe. She tried almost every refine y
far such cases with bus little benefit. When
che had taken but three bottles Of your eSceI~
lent medicine, she war entirely relieved Of the
disease of the heart. and the rupture has al.
most entire disappeared.
She has also had the dropsy, and was very
much swollen. We had no idea that she could
be SO benefited, an she had such a complication
of diseaseH. But 1t has. al strange as It may
appear, relieved her Of The drUpBy. am aware
