Mr.. AYERS NOT DEAD.
VERY Much Alive and Out with = Letter
Telling How He WINS Saved.


Minneapolis, Mimi, Dec. 29.--tSpe-
cial.) Few who knew how Ill Mr.. A.
4. Ayers OF this city had been with
Bright's Disease and Diabetes ever ex-
pected he could live. Four doctors gave
him but three or four days TO live. He
recovered through the prompt and con-
tinued use of a well-known remedy,
and has given the following letter for
publication. 1t Is dated at Bath. N. Y,
where Mr.. Ayers now resides.
Soldiers and Sailors Home,

Dodds Medicine Co., Buffalo, N. Y:
Dear Sirs-I wish to tell you what
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done 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 l lived in Mime
apolis for forty-nine years. and am
well known there by many people.
suffered severely with Bright's Disease
and Diabetes. Four well-known physi-
clans gave me up to die. In fact they
longest to live. / had spent nearly
everything l had 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 box. / had
very little hope of anything ever doing
me any good. as from what the four
doctors had told me, it was now mat
ter of hours with me. commenced to
take the Pills, and from the very first
they helped me. I took in all about
forty boxes. | doubtless did not need
so many, but | wanted to make sure,
and after all, $40 is a small amount Of
money to remove the sentence OF death
and save ones life.
I have since recommended Dodd's
Kidney Pills to hundreds OF people,
and / have - TO hear of the first one
that did not find them all that you
claim for them can remember OF two
people to whom l had recommended
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and who after
wards said to me that they received no
benefit. / asked to see their Pill boxes,
and behold instead of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, it was IS Kidney Pills, an
imitation of the genuine Dodd's, and
not the real thing at all that they had
been using. | 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
ne that they had bought and used the
genuine Dodd's Kidney Pills, and were
cured.
still continue to use the Pills off
il they were $50 a box. l think that
every old gentleman in the world
would be healthier and better if he
would take one after each meal.
wish could think Of words strong
enough to express to you my gratitude
for what your Medicine has done for
me. 1t is not often, l 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 over
whelmed with thankfulness to God
for His mercy to me in permitting me
to see the advertisement Of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, when it seemed that I
was beyond all earthly power to save,
that | cannot express my real feelings.
II anyone doubts the statement |
have made, they may write to me, and
will try and prove to them that all |
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 Dodd' g
Kidney Pills pulled me through, when
had been given up by the four doctors
of Bright's Disease and Diabetes, and
had practically lost all hope. You are
at liberty to publish this testimonial
which l give you from the bottom of
my heart, and / sincerely wish that
could find the right words to express
my feelings OF gratitude to you and to
Dodd's Kidney Pills, for my restora.
ton to life and health.
