Letter Telling How He Was Saved.

Minneapolis. Mimi, Dec. 29.-(Spe-
cial)-Few who know how i'll Mr.. A. f.
Ayers OF this city has been with
Brights 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
continued 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, out they have given me
new life and hope. / lived in Minneap-
oils for forty-nine years, and am well
known there by many people. / suf-
fered severely with Bright's Disease ana
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-
erything | had in the effort to save my
life, but seeing an advertisement of
Dodd's Kidney Pills, I scraped what
was nearly my last half-dollar, sent to
the drug store and bought a box. / had
very little hope of anything eve doing
me any good, as, from what the four
doctors had told me it was now q mat
ter of hours with me. l 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 l 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 yet TO hear of the first one that
did not find them all that you claim for
them. l can remember of two people
to whom I had recommended Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and who afterwards said
to me hat they received no benefit. I
asked TO see their Pill boxes, and be-
hold, instead of Dodd's Kidney Pills, 1t
was --'s Kidney Pills, an imita-
ton of the genuine Dodd's, and not the
real thing at all that they had been
using. l 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.
1 still continue to use the Pills off
and on, and would not be without them
IL they were $50 a box. 1 think that
49,. Ill ,znr+1.-,on tn Tho urcrI1 would
be healthier and better if he would
take one after each meal.
I wish 1 could think of words strong
enough to express to you my gratitude
for what your Medicine has done for
me. 1t 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 il seemed that / was beyond all
earthly power to save, that l cannot eA-
press my real feelings.
If any one doubts the statement L
have made, they may write TO me, and
I will try to prove to them h a all l
have said in this letter is true. and
more than true. There are hundreds or
people in Minneapolis who know all
about my case and the way Dodds
Kidney Pills pulled me through. when
I had beer given up by the four doc"
| tors of Bright's Disease and Diabetes
and had practically lost all hope. You
are at liberty to publish this testimonial
which / give you from the bottom OF
my heart. and I sincerely wish that l
could find the right words to express
nv feelings of gratitude to you and to
Dodd's Kidney Pills, for my restoration
TO life and health.
