Dear Sir: have been asrfsr.r .or upwards
of twenty years, with gravel. bladder and kid
ney affections, during which time have used
various medicinal preparations, ard been un-
der the treatment Of the most eminent physi-
clans, experien sing but little relief
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised. consulted with my family physi-
clan in regard TO using your Extract Buchu.
did this because had used all kinds Of ad-
yertised remedies, and had found them worth
less, and some quite injurious in fact, / de-
SPARED Of ever getting well, and determined 10
use no remedies hereafter unless knew Of the
ingredients. 1t was this that prompted me 10
| use your remedy. As you advertised that il
was composed Of buchu, cubebs and Juniper ber-
ries. II occurred TO me and my physician as an
| excellent combination, and, with his advice,
after an examination Of the article. and con-
suiting again with the druggist. L concluded TO
try II. commenced IFS use about eight months
/ ago, NJ which time / was confined TO my room,
From the first bottle l was sstonished and graf
ihed At the benti neal effect and after using it
like writing you full statement of my case at
| that time. but thought my improy ement might
only be temporary. and therefore concluded to
| defer and see II it would effect a perfect cure
knowing then il would be Of greater value To-
| you and more satisfactory TO me.
am now able TO report that cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
i have not used any now for three months
and feel as well in all respects as ever did.
Your Buehu being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator Of
the system, do not mean to be without il
