Y. had been stricken with kidney disease.

What other information would be OF
interest TO cur readers, the Journal re-
presentaiiye left Albany and soon found
himselfin the pretty village Of Athens
Il did not take long to satisfy the reporter
that the statements Of Mr.. Glow we're in
every way true. The Rev. D. William
Lawrence, pastor ofthe Lutheran church,
Postmaster True and Justice Of the Peace
GaIler. when asked about it, said that
every word was true to their knowledge
Mr.. Glow was at deaths door suffering
with kidney trouble. The physicians
failed to help him, and he was cured by
the use ofDr. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy. Also that Fayorite Remedy
had performed as marvellous a cure for
Mrs. Casper Brooks, wife ofthe proprietor
ofthe Robins House, Of that place.

replied that she would be perfectly will

much diseased, and this combination Of
troubles was almost unbesrable. At my
husband suggestion, l consulted physl-
clans at Albany Hudson and Chatham,
and took their medicines and prescript-
ions faithfully, but found no benefit.
You can imagine my terrible condition
at this time, after employing five Of the
best physicians, all to no purpose; butat
this dark hour ray Of light broke in up
on me. DR.. Wm. Smith, Of Jewett
Heights, was recommended, and it is to

Smith who prescribed DR.. Kennedy's Fa-
yorite Remedy for me. purchased a
bottle and commenced taking it, and be-

Such a straightforward statement con-
vinced the y0'urGi reporter that DR..

Hundreds Of people in and about
Athens are conversant with the facts Of
these cases. In speaking to Mr.. Horton,
