ALBERT LEA, Mimi, Feb. 10, 1897.
DRs. GRAHAM & BRECK:-I have
been great sufferer for many years
from a very bad double rupture. l
was unable to work and was in con-
slant misery. After taking the
Fidelity treatment l am new man.
I do a. mans work, do not feel my
rupture at all and my general health
is very much improved. L can recon-
mend the treatment to all who are
ruptured. Your plan is fair, no pay
until cured, and the price is very
reasonable.

I have taken the Fidelity Rupture
Cure of DR.. Brock at Albert Lea, and

have been taking the treatment. 1t
is almost painless and safe. My gen.

cured, and / would not be placed

times the cost it has been to me.
