affections, during which time have used various
medicinal preparations. and been der the trea.-

Having seen your preparations extensively ad-
ver,ised, consulted with my family ply siciau in
regard to using your Extinct Bushu.
did this because had used all kinds of ad-
vertissd remedies and had found them worthless,
and some quite Injurious; in fact, despaired of
ever getting wei, and determined to use no rem
edies hereafter unless l knew of the ingredients.
Itwas this that prompted me to use your remedy.
As you advertised that it was composed Of buchu
cubeb. and juniper berries, it occurred to and
my physician as an excellent combination, and,
with his advice after an examination of the arti-
Gle, and consulting again with the druggist
concluded to try it. 1 commenced its about

to my room From the srst bottle was astonish-
ed and gratifed the beneficial effect. and after
using it three weeks was able to walk out. I felt
much like writing you a full statement OF my case
at that time but tho ught my Improvement might
defer and see if it would effect perfect cure,
knowing then il would be of greater value to you
ami more satisfactory to me.

after using the remedy for five months.

Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant
