Marvellous Results,

From a letter written by Rev J. Gunder-
man, of Dimondale, Mich, we are permitted
to make this extract II have no hesitation
in recommending DIR. Kings New Discovery

would last hours with little interruption and
it seemed as if she could not survive them.
A friend recommended DIR. Kings New
Discovery; it was quick in its work and
highly satisfactory in results" Trial bottles
