civilized lands, and is rapidly making inroads IL
the lands where belief in witchcraft and tht
"back art" have for centuries made miserable
the lives of the Inhabitants A hundred years
ago, even in this beautiful section Of the country
now almost the centre Of civilization and culture,
had person asserted that the infections Of the

like manner would the compounder of any med.
/ cal remedy have been treated had he claimed for
his production the virtues now generally ascribed
to Hunts Remedy. In proof Of this latter asser-
ton read the following statements made by we'll
known citizens of Providence: Mr.. Edward r.
Dawley, with Waldron, Wightman & Co., gives
remarkable testimonial of the worth of Hunts
Remedy. Mr.. Dawley said "For many years l
suffered intensely with what had every reason to
believe WAS rheumatism. When l was first at

Whole trouble.
l have known Of great many cases of kidney
that were cured by the Rene
dy. To my own knowledge it is, and has been
or number of years, used extensively through
ut the state. 1t is extensively prescribed by
everal of our leading physicians, and they are , ,
zee to admit that, for the treatment Of the va
GUS kidney troubles, they can ind no satisfactory
Institute. Hunts Remedy has been used very
lccessfully, and with beneficial results, In my I
vn family outside of my own individual case. =
y relatives have also used 1t with good results. '
,t only that, but several OF my friends and
of this city and state, have had their y y
tention called to Hunts Remedy by me, and n
ey have always found the same benent In their =
vn cases. One Of the most remarkable cures =
ming to my knowledge was the case of q very !.
ominent manufacturer in the southern part Of !.
hode Island. He had suffered for long term -
years with kidney disease, yet less than two
,ttles Of the Remedy entirely cured him. Sis
n of this same gentleman, resident of Connec-
cut, was suffering from what her DOCTORS called
rights disease of the Kidneys She discarded
eir medicine and took Hunts Remedy, and was g
ltirely cured by its use 1t is my belief that the
emedy is destined to be the standard remedial v
gent wherever known throughout the country,
a specific for kidney diseases Of all kinds, as a
has already stood the trying test Of years. Tes- t
monlals of its sterling worth are, to my own o
nowledge, constantly being received by the pro-
rector from all parts of the country" r
