Dear SIR: 1 have been sufferer for upwards
of twenty years, with gravel. bladder and kid
ney affections. during which time have used
various medicinal preparations, and been I'M
h
clans, experiencing but little relief
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, consulted with my family physi-
clan in regard to using your EXTRACT Buchu.
Ildid 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 to
use no remedies hereafter unless l knew of the
ingredients. 1t was this that prompted me to
use your remedy. As yeu advertised that i
was composed of bacha, cube6s and juniper ber-
ries. it occurred to me and my physician as an
excellent combination, and, with his advice,
after an examination of the article, and con-
sulting again with the druggist, | concluded to
try it. / commenced its use about eight months
ago, at which time L was confined to my room.
From the hrst bottle L was astonished and graf
flied at the beneficial effect and after using il
three weeks was able to walk cut. felt much
like writing You n full statement of my case at
that time, but thought my Improvement nigh
only be temporary, and therefore concluded TO
defer and sec If it would effect perfect cure,
knowing then it 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
have not used any now for three months,
and feel as well in all respects as / ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid Of any unpleasan
taste and odor, nice tonic and invigorator
the system. l do not mean TO be without IL
whenever occasion may require its use in such
affections. NJ. MCCORMICK.
