The representative of the press thanked
MIR. Larrabee for his very frank and clear
statement, and was about to leave the Office
inquired if he were seeking information
about Mr. Larrabee's sickness and recovery
The scribe replied that he was, whereupon
the gentleman said

see DR.. d. A. Johnson, at 20 Worcester
street. He was absent when called, and
so stepped into the Commonwealth hotel

the doctors would come down from his room

funeral were made and his recovery was
simply q miracle"

that Mr.. Larrabee's case was very re-
markable one. He was his family physician
and expected his death every hour for Il
number Of weeks and never called to see
him during that time, but he was prepared
for it. The doctor said the recovery was
due to Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure, and if he had friends, male or female,
troubled with Albumen or any kidney
troubles he should certainly advise them to
use this remedy DR.. Johnson said kidney
