Dear Sirs-I wish to tell you VIA
Dodd's Kidney Pills have lone for me.
AS far as l am concerned, they are the
best in the world, for they not only
saved my life, but they have given me
new life and hope. / lived in Minneap-
oils for fOrty-nine years, and am we'll
known there by many people. I suf-
fered~ severely with Bright's Disease and
Diabetes. Four well-known physicians
gave me up to die. In fact, they gave
me only three or four days, at the
longest, to live. l had spent nearly ev-
erythtng | a in the effort to save my
life, but seeing an advertisement OF
Dodd's Kidney Pills, | scraped what
was nearly my last half-dollar, sent to
the drug store and bought a box. l had
very little hope of anything ever doing
me any good, as, from what the -four
doctors had told me it was now a mat
ter of hours with me. l commenced to
take the Pills, and from the very first
they helped me. / tool in all about
forty boxes. ! doubtless, did not need
so many, but l wanted to make sure,
and, after all. $50 is a small amount of
money to remove the sentence of death
and ave ones life.
l have since recommended Dodd's
Kidney Pills to hundreds of people, and
I have yet TO hear of the first one that
did not find them all that you claim for
them. I can remember of two people
to whom I had recommended Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and who afterwards said
to me that they received 10 benefit. /
asked to see their Pill boxes, and be-
hold, instead of Dodd's Kidney Pills, it
was --'s Kidney Pills, an imita-
ton of the genuine Dodd's, and not the
real thing at all that they had been
using. I gave each of them an empty
pill box that Dodd's Kidney Pills had
been put up in. so that they could make
no more mistakes, and they afterwards
came to me and told me that they had
bought and used the genuine Dodd's
Pills. and were cured.
! still continue to use the Pills off
and on, and would not be without them
if they were $50 a o l think that
every old gentleman in the world would
be healthier and better if he would
take me after each meal.
/ wish 1 could think of words strong
, enough to express to you my gratitude
for what your Medicine has done for
me. It is not often, 1 suppose, that a
man who is staring death right in the
face, is permitted to live and tell of the
means which saved him, and as that is
my position, my heart is overwhelmed
with thankfulness to God for His mer-
cy to me in permitting me to see the
advertisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
when it seemed that / was beyond all
earthly power to save, that l cannot ex
press my real feelings.
II any one doubts the statement l
have made, they may write to me, and
/ will try to prove to them that all l
have said in this letter is true, and
more than true. There are hundreds OF
people in Minneapolis who know all
about my case and the way Dodds
Kidney Pills pulled me through, when
I had been given up by the four doc-
tors Of Bright's Disease and Diabetes,
and had practically lost all hope. You
are al liberty to publish this testimonial
which 1 give you from the bottom OF
nv heart, and / sincerely wish thai l
could find the right words to express
my feelings of gratitude to you ana 10
Dodd's Kidney pills, for my restoration
to life and health.
