PHrLApRLruIA, Pa. Feb. -. 1867.
II. I. HELMBoLp, Druggist:
DEAR SIR have been suffering, for mp
ward Of twenty years, With gravel, bladder,
and kidney affection, during which time |
have used various medical preparations, and
been under the treatment Of the most eminent
Physicians, experiencing but little relief, s
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, consulted with my family
physician in regard TO using yeur Extract
Buchu.
I did this because I had used all kinds of
advertised remedies, and had found them
worthless, and some quite injurious. in fact
l despaired of ever getting well, and .leterm
ined TO use no remedies hereafter unless
knew of the, ingredients. II was this that
prompted me 10 use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was COMPOSED of buchn,
cubebs, and juniper berries, it occurred to
me and my physician as an excellent com
bination, and, with his advice. after an exam
ination Of the article, and consulting again
with the druggist, | concluded to try 1t.
commenced its use about eight months ago,
at which time L was confined 10 my room.
From the first bottle was astOnished and
gratified at the beneficial effect, and after
using it three weeks. was able to walk out.
| felt much like writing you full statement
of my case at the time, but thought my i'm
provement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded TO defer, and see, if It
would effect a perfect cure knowing then it
would be of greater value to you, and more
satisfactory to me- -r.,5 - .-..a .t head .....
am now able to report that cure is ef-
fected after using the remedy for FIVE
months. =. dtgso f,qfg ,f..--,,- .,.i.i ..
l have not used any now for three months,
and feel as we'll in all respects as ever did
Your Buchu being devoid of any un-
pleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and in
vigorator of the system, ] do not mean to
be without it whenever occasion may require
its use in such affections. ,;-.......-r

The Kidneys are two in number, situated
at the upper part Of the l.in, surrounded by
fat. and consisting Of three parts, viz: the
Anterior, the Interior, and The Exterior.
1.-The anterior sbsorbs.i Interior consist.
of tissues or veins, which serve as deposit
for the sarine and convey it to, the exterior.
The, exterior is a conductor also, terminating
in single tub, and called the Ureter. The
ureters are connected with The bladder.
The bladder is composed Of various cover
ings or tissues, divided into parts. viz: the
Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, and the Mu-
cons. The upper eIpels, the lower retains.
Many have o desire to urinate without the
ability others urinate without the ability
to retain. This frequently occ urs in chill

TO cure these affections, we must bring
into action the muscles, which are engaged
in their various functions. II they are ne

signed should be firing at intervals according TO
