PHILADELPHIA PA, Feb. 25, 1867.
Fl. It. HELMBoLD, Druggist
DEAR SIR-I have been sufferer, for upward
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder and kid
ney affections during which time I have used
various medicinal preparations, and been under
the treatment of the most eminent Physicians
experiencing butIlittle relief.
Having seen your DreDaratiOns extensively
advertised, 1 consulted with my family physi-
clan in regard to using your Extract Buchu
did this because had used all kind of adver-
tised remedies, and had found them worthless,
and some quite injurious; in fact despaired
of ever getting well, and determined to use nc
remedies thereafter unless knew of the ingre-
dicnts. 1t was this that prompted me to use
your remedy. AS you advertised that it was
composed of buchu, cubebs and juniper berries,
it occurred to meand my physician excel
lent combination, anu, with his advice, after
examination OF the article, and consulting again
with the druggist, rconcluded to try it. 7 com
menced its use about eight months ago, at which
time was confined to my room. From the first
bottle was astonished and gratifed at the ben
eficial effect and after using it three weeks, was
able to walk out. I felt much like writing you
q statement of my case at that time, but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer and see 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.
I have not used any now for three months,
and feel as well in all respects as l ever did
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor, nice tonic and invigoratof Of
tho system, do not mean TO be without it when
ever occasion may require its use in such affec-
tious. NJ MCCORMICK.
