sufferer from kidney disorder and inflamma-
tion of the bladder. Sometimes when p ass

been treated by a number of our best physi-
clans, and have used any number of proprie-
tary medicines, all to no avail, obtaining no
relief. How long would have continued in
this way do not know; in fact | despaired
of getting relief, until neighbor, who had
been very much benefited by the use of
Hunts Remedy, advised me to try it and,
although had no faith that it would reach
my case, yet as he spoke so highly of its great
merits decided to give it trial, and its use
has been attended with the very best possible
results Twelve hours after taking the first
dose / experienced relief | continued on
its use until had used five bottles, when all
the pains had vanished, my otherwise good
health returned, and l am free from all
