hobbs Remedy Co., Chicago:
~ Fonda Street Williamsport. Pa, March
Z. 1896. --Gentlemen; Some five years ago
my wife Mrs. Chas. IL. Hail, now 55 years
of age. was taken With dropsy and heart
trouble, growing worse from month TO
month. Two years ago she was so sick that
she was compelled to stop work OF every
kind. The best physicians in this city were
secured. but she grew worse SO rapidly and
her heart SO bad. that n year ago they said
nothing more could be done for her, as
death was liable to come at any time
At this time she measured ton feet around
the waist, weighed over 400 pounds. Owing
TO her heart trouble the doctors would not
tap her only to keep her from bursting.
These operations did no good, as they failed
to get drop OF water from her, claiming
that it WAS in sacks all over her body, and
thev couldn't reach it. For four months
she could neither lie down or walk. The
longest sleep she had during that time was
TWENTY-FIVE minutes. The smallest cracker
would distress her so that she could hardly
breathe vet she dare not take stimulants.
Her suffering was so terrible that she
prayed day and night for death to relieve
her from her miseries.
Her kidneys did not act more than one
gill in forty-eight hours, and then thick
with brick dust. Her bowels could only be
moved under the most wretched powerful
cathartics prescribed by the physician.
About this time ! saw an advertisement OF
Dr.. Hobbs Sparngus Kidney pills in the
Williamsport Sun I determined TO try n
box. NV wife objected to my spending any
more money On her as she felt that she was
past all help However. she began taking
them at once. The fourth day they began
TO do their work. when she passed two gal
Ions of water in twenty four hours. ] ihen
got some OF Or. Hobbs Little Liver Pills,
and they did their work equally as well.
After using eight boxes of Or. Hobbs Spara-
gus Kidney pills she is reduced TO her
normal weight of about 1i5 pounds She has
n good appetite and is doing her own work.
People who knew how near she was to
deaths door pronounced her case nothing
less than n miracle.
she is certainly living monument TO
the inestimahle worth of DR.. Hobbs Spar
agus Kidney Pills and Little LIVER Pills.
am thankful to God and your valuable
medicines that my poor suffering wife can
live and he comfortable after the terrible
ordeal she has passed through during the
pnst five wears If you wish an affidavit
of these FACTS l am willing TO give II.
Yours gratefully. CHAS. H. HAIL.
