Remarkable Rascne.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plaintield,
Ill.,, makes the statement, that she
caught cold, which settled on her
lungs; she was treated for a month by
her family physician, but grew worse.
He told her she was hopeless victim
of consumption and that no medicine
could cure her. Her druggist sug-
gested DR.. Kings New Discovery for
consumption; she bought a bottle and
to her delight found herself benefited
from first dose. She continued its use
