Completely Cured of Chronic Diar.
rhea-A Case of Long Standing

DR.. Tom Foo Yuen-Dear Sir: l take
great pleasure In complying with your
request for few lines for the book you
are compiling for the benefit of the sick.
AS you have done so much for me, l
am anxious to do all can for suffering
humanity. My illness commenced in
Washington, d. c., where 1 resided for
over twenty years, and having several
deaths in my family, who were attended
by some of the most noted physicians
of the city, l felt must obey when my
doctor said would be subject to gastric
fever If remained there, and so l moved
to Riverside, Cal, ten years ago. 1 was
very well for several years, but was then
again attacked, and for six years / was
confirmed invalid with chronic diarrh-
ca. l think would have been paralyZed
by this time If l had not met with DR..
Foo. for our own physicians only re-
lieved me for time and could not cure
me. I saw DR.. Foo's advertisement in
the Times of Los Angeles, diagnosing
by the pulse, and went to him without
knowing any one he had cured, and
when he diagnosed my case by my
pulse without any question except my
age, and told me how was affected so
accurately, and the cause, and that it
was of long standing, l was astonished
and convinced that he knew what to do
for me, and commenced treatment at
once, and took a large cup of the herb
tea, to the horror of my daughter, who
had nursed me so long and was so care
full of what I ate and drank. I told her
that felt I was guided by heavenly
power, and that 1 was acting wisely,
of which 1 am now fully convinced.
took treatment for two weeks before
he could tell If he could cure me- He
found he could, having controlled my
bowels from the first dose, telling just
what the herb tea would do. 1t was mar
velous to me, after being treated six
years by our physicians He said it
would take at least six months, taking
two courses of medicine. I improved
all the time, and then, at his advice, left
off four months, and am now taking
treatment a short time longer, as he
| recommended it. l have great conf
dence in him and am thoroughly salts
fed with his treatment. He Is an honor
able humane, gentlemanly man, and
would compare favorably with culti-
waited men from any part of the globe.
There is no question as regards his sci
entific ability to gain an understanding
of the condition Of any patient through
the pulse alone. His methods of exam
lnation are truly refined. l have con-
versed with many of DR.. Foo's patients
and find that they lose the prejudice as
they become better acquainted with him
and see more clearly the evidences of his
SKILL So strongly am l impressed with
this fact that I wonder why our Ameri-
can physicians do not adopt some of
these methods, or, at least investigate
them in a fair and candid spirit
In the matter Of diet DR.. Foo shows
great skill and study. You are not al
lowed to find out for yourself Gas for
merly had, to my sorrow) what is best
for you to eat, as bill of fare is pro-
vided.
Some people may think his charges
for the herbs high, but, compared with
the results, they are Insignificant.
Hoping that these few lines will IN
duce many who are suffering to take
your treatment. and be. cured, I remain
greatfully your friend,
MRS. GERTRUDE E. SAMO,
