for me. I have taken five bottles of
the Compound and two boxes of Liver

I had suffered for years with dropsy;
the veins in my limbs burst, caused
from the pressure of the water. had
the worst kind of kidney trouble, faint
ing spells, and could not stand long
at a time. I also had female weakness
and the doctor said there was tumor
in my left side. The pains had to
stand were something dreadful. A
friend handed me little book of yours,
SO got your medicine and it has saved
my life. I felt better from the first
bottle. The bloating and the tumors
have all gone and do not suffer any
pain. am still using the Vegetable
Compound and hope others may find
relief as have done from its use."-
