Couldn't Wear shoes.

Sumpter, ILL.,, June 10-Mrs. j. b.
Flanagan Of this place had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She
was so very bad that for the last three
years she has not been able to wear
her shoes. She had doctored all the
time but was gradually getting worse
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for some
medicine at Mr.. ]. J. Dale's drug store
in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded him to
have his wife try Dodds Kidney Pills,
and ne bought six boxes. His wife
used five out Of the six, before she was
entirely cured. She is now as sound
and well as ever she was, completely
restored to health, and free from any
symptom whatever Of Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deliverance does not
half express her feelings, and she and
NJ. Flanagan are loud in their praises
Of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and Of Mr..
Dale for recommending this wonderful
remedy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan Of such severe
case Of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked of remedy ever known in White
County.

The officers instructions were to let
no one pass through the corridor for

man, with a full beard, and wearing a
froek coat, walked rapidly down the
