A woMAN's EXPERIENCE.

Mrs. William Downes, Of Uxbridge, Mass, writes
on March 10, 1888, as follows:-
"During the past three years have been a great
sufferer from q complication Of diseases which baiiied
the skill of the most experienced doctors, as | could
not obtain permanent relief by their treatment and
prescriptions: and l have also tried many so-caled
cures in the medicine line, but could get no relief.
The pains, aches, and weakness. increased so rapidly
and constantly that | was so reduced in strength as
to be unable to leave the bed, Anu the doctors ill.,
formed me that there was 10 hofs for recovery. In
this exhausted and discouraged condition n dear
friend persuaded me to use Hunts Remedy, and after
taking 1t only three days I commenced to get better,
and to my great JOY and delight | have continued to
improve constantly by its use, until now, after having
taken the remedy only q few weeks, | am able to be
about my house again, and am now doing my house
work. My lame back is cured, tho severe pains have
disappeared, and ! am now in better health than fol
many years, and beg this privilege of gladly recon-
mending Hunts remedy to all who are affected with
any disease of the kidneys or liver; and | also highly
it for the attacks Of sick headache. My
husband has also experienced a very great benefit t.
his health by the use Of the most valuable medicine
Hunts Remedy.
