Connecticut People-The Ills to Which


 So much patent medicine has been foisted upon the public by doubtful means that man knows not where to pin his faith. unless it be to the regular practitioners But the time has come when man may be his own physician with respect to certain diseases, namely, diseases of the kidneys, which, as many know, are the seat of many ills
 A vegetable medicine known as Hunts Remedy is attracting general attention. At first it was ranked with other patent medi- cines but as it became better known 1t took a high stand as specific for kidney and kin dred diseases, and afflicted persons began to flock to it's standard. Nothing that can be said in it's favor can overstate it's merits.
 The cures it has effected are known to the people The patients who suffered year af- ter year. and who found no relief till Hunts Remedy was used are well known citizens, whose word is as good as their bond. There have been many remarkable and radical cures from the use of Hunts Remedy.
 The following are few of thousands that have been cured: ssCaptain John Kmball, of New London, Conn.,, gave this statement to the reporter. Captain Kimban says: About three months ago was taken with severe pains in the small of my back, in the region of the kidneys, from which became terrible sufferer. I consulted with num- Der of physicians, and finally placed myself under their treatment, they telling me had the sciatic rheumatism and kidney complaint. "On examination my urine was found to be in 8 very bad condition, of very dark color, and impregnated with heavy red brick dust deposit, and very offensive. I had the most careful and best medical atten- dance, and tried all the popular remedies without experiencing any relief. Fortunate ly about this time the virtue of Hunts Rem edy being called to my attention, I bought and used bottle, with such satisfactory suits that I continued on for six weeks. when, having used four bottles, I found I was as well as ever, and entirely cured. All pains left me; my water returned to it's nat ural color. I am now in excellent health and able toattend to my business (grocery).
 'FWhenever an opportunity occurs to rec. ommend Hunts Remedy always do SO. as I am confident it will do all you claim for 1t, and that every time"
 Mir. John W. Johnston, of Norwich, Conn, says: 1T have been afflicted about one year. and received treatment from the local physi- clans, and used a number of so-ealled spe- cifcs without any material help. am hap py to say, after using three bottles of Hunts Remedy, was completely cured.
 T never fail to recommend it, and you are at liberty to use my name in any manner you may desire''
 Mrs. Harriet Bailey, of Putnam, Conn. says: "I have been troubled with kidney and liver disease for two years I suffered severely with pains in. the back ahd loins. Before taking your wonderful medicine, Hunts Remedy, could not lift a pound After giving 1t fair trial I began to improve and can now truly say it was 'godsend to me- as I am now able to do my household work and enjoy the best of health. I have recommended Hunts Remedy to two of my neighbors, who have been greatly benefited by it. This bottle I send voluntarily, with the hope that it will be the means of indu- cfpg some suffersr to use Hunts Remedy and be cured as I have been.''
 MT. Charles H. Alexander, foreman dye house, Shetucket mills, Greenville, Conn.,, says: "About one year ago I was taken with severe attack of disease of the kid neys, from which I suffered severely I ap- piled to our local physician, and not receiv- ing any help, called on Mir. John A. Nor gan, our druggist, and stated my case. He immediately handed me bottle of Hunts Remedy, offering it as the great specific for that complaint. l commenced using it at once, and from the very start began to inn prove, and by the time had used the bottle was entirely well. I would advise any per sons having difficulty with the kidneys to give Hunts Remedy trial. I know of one case beside my own being cured, and would cheerfully recommend it to anyone.'
 'I certify to the above being 8 true case, having sold tie medicine to Mr. Alexander, and know him to be a gentleman respected highly in the position he holds.

 MT. J. H. Ryan, superintendent of the American Mills, Rockville, Conn, says: CT have been troubled some years with soreness and, at times, acute pains in the kidneys I have used Hunts Remedy when so attacked for the past two years, and always find few doses effectual in stopping the pain. I all ways keep bottle of Hunts Remedy in the house, and take pleasure in recommending it to others in need of such medicine.
 MT. William c. Cleaveland, of Norwich, Conn says: stFor number of years my wife has been troubled with chronic rheuma- tism, it being in some portion of her body constantly (except, perhaps, in the very warmest weather in summer.) Last Christ mas she contracted very severe cold and a diseased condition of the kidneys became manifest, which subjected her to excessive suffering, as the symptoms of gravel became more prominent, her urine being colored, ac. companied by heavy brick-dust sediment
 "After trying several remedies without re- lief, procured for her a bottle of Hunts Remedy, which she commenced taking, and before three days had passed she became much better. She continued using the med icine until she had used six bottles, and now feels entirely cured of both rheumatism and kidney complaint. She believes her present excellent health due solely to the use of Hunts Remedy"

On May 9th, 1883, he writes as follows: 'sFor years I have suffered with disease of the kidneys and bladder, and have no hesitancy in recommending Hunts Remedy as g spe- ci1c for these complaints. It has not only been the means of relieving me of terrible pain, but has cured number of my ac- quaintances. To-day I am performing the duties of the office of town clerk which I have held for forty two years, which could not be able to do were not in fair state of health owing to the use of Hunts Remedy"
