health and strength. The continual jar of

tend to weaken the kidneys and urinary

Alice f. Curtis, of Brunswick, Me-, writes
us on May 15 1888: "That she has suffered
very much at frequent intervals with kidney
disease, and the attacks were increasing in
severity so steadily as to cause alarm,
Her aunt, Mrs N. NJ. Small, per-
suaded her to use Hunts Remedy, and
after using several bottles Miss Curtis has
been freed from the severe aches and pains to
which she had long been accustomed; and
further says that Hunts Remedy never fails
to relieve the severe pains iu the side and
intense backache, and Miss C. pronounces it
a real blessing to woman for all kidney dis
eases, and she cordially recommends it for
the many ills and pains peculiar to women"

slant attention that was kept awake a great

Portland and elsewhere but continued TO
grow worse
| was persuaded to try Hunts Remedy, as
found that many Of my friends in Portland
had used it with great success, yet had no
faith that it would reach my case. However,
l sent for half dozen bottles at one of the
drug stores in Portland, and from the use of
the first bottle found great relief My
water was much better and the pain
in the back and limbs greatly re-
lieved. l continued its use until had used
ten bottles in all, and it has been to me a
wonderful blessing, and | have deemed it a
duty and privilege to recommend it to those
troubled in similar manner and you may

men and the public in general, as it has COM
