Cure of Kidney and Bladder
Affection Of a Patient
seventy-eight years
of age.
THANKS TO MR.. HELMBoLD.

THANKS TO MR.. HELMBOLD.
GfRARD, Pa, March 81, 1869.
EDITOR CosMopoLITE Il desire, as an unsolici-
ted tribute to the merits of HELMBoLDs BUeaU,
and for the benefit of those similarly afflicted as
myself to say that after consulting many eminent
physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised
remedies, in the vain hope Of finding relief from
aggravated kidney and bladder diseases, from
which have suffered excessively for many years,
good fortune finally suggested to me HELMBoLD's
BUCHU, which commenced using with little faith,
and no apparent beneficial effects for about u
month. At the expiration of that timc hsweyer /
thought commenced to experience slight relief,
which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and
now at the expiration of four months, although |
am an Infirm old man, nearly seventy-eght years
of age, and consequently medicines cannot be ex.
pected to fayorably affect me as they otherwise
would have found such unspeakable relief and
permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbold's valuable
discovery, that feel ought to publicly record the
fact, as an acknowledgment to him, and valuable
suggestion to the public. Yours respectfully,
u. NJ. LARES.

H. T. HELMB0LD'S
CONCENTRATED
Fluid Extract Buchu
TIL H.
GREAT DIURETIC.


The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, from the
fact of being advertised may not be cassed as Pa
tent Medicines.
BUCHU, in one form or other, has been presented
by every educated Physician for more than
TWO HUNDRED YEARS.
VI. T. HELMBOLD claims superior mode of
extracting its virtues. The experiments were made
while engaged in the DRUG business in the city Of
Philadelphia, nineteen years ago, prompted by the
alarming increase of diseases of the Bladder, Kid
neys, Gravel and Urinary Organs, existing in both
sexes. These diseases were justly attracting ms
much attention as diseases of the Liver, or any
other vital organs of the body Upon the sound and
healthy condition of these important organs, the
healthy and harmonious action of the nervous sys-
TEN and Liver, and consequently the happiness of
the entire human family, depends. That Buchu
should act upon both Liver and Kidneys, to pre-
pare it that would retain its strength and active
principle, was his aim. IL must not be made, as
housekecpers make tea, by boiling 1t is a delicate
Leaf, and It's active principle would be destroyed
by such process. 1t must be prepared in VACUO,
and from the Long leaf, fresh and carefully Sc.
lected.

PARATION BEING ACKNOWLEDGED, now

in doing so.
What would have understood is, that no injur,

to rebuild a wrecked or shattered constitution IN

This truth is so seIfeyident that 1t would seen

Ipropose to give evidence that this Remedy is
not a patent medicine. The objection which gsner-
ally lies against all discoveries and inventions in
medicine is publicity" II somebody should dis
cover remedy to proleng life, or an nfalble cure

he be to withhold his knowedgei We have yet to
learn from what chapter or verse in Scripture to

Nor have we asked Pickwicks, affected prndes,
or, in short, mon who are possessed of every kind
of sense but common sense, and all kinds of opin-

attest its virtues aud commend 1t. II is the preju.

time have used various medicinal preparations
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
vertiset, consnltethny family physician in regard
to using your Extract Buchu.
l did this because had used all kinds of adver-
tised remedies and had found them worthless, and
some quite injuri0us in fact, despaired of ever
getting well, and determined to use remedies
hereafter unless kncT, os tic ingredients. 1t was
this that prompted me to use yonr remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of buchu, cubebs
and juniper berries, 1t occurred to me and my phys
ician excellent combination; and with his adj
vice, after examination of the article and con-
suiting again with the druggist, concluded to try

able to walk out. felt much like writing to you a
full statement of my at the time, but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer, and see il it would
effect perfect cure, knowing then II would be OF
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me.

after using the remedy for five months.
have not used any now for three months and

Your Buchu being devoid OF any unpleasant taste

may require its use in such affections.

the question asked me as TO my opinion about Blu
clu, would say have used and sold the article IN
various forms for the past thirty years. do NOT
think there is any form preparation oft have not
used, or known to be used, in the various diseases

You are aware, well as myself, that it has been

of Bnchu--thc powdered leaves, tnctuyc fluid ex-
