fer +o fhe Sick

fer to the Sick.
That DR.. Miles is one of the most
successful physicians is proven by
known people. One patient cured af-
ter failure of eleven Grand Rapids
physicians, two after having been CIV
en- up by six or seven Chicago ply
sicians, another after nine of the
leading doctors in New York City,
Philadelphia and Chicago failed.
Toanyone WHO'S not acquainted with
the Miles system of Individual treat
ments we make the following liberal
offer: We will send you one months
treatment, especially prepared for
you, with the privilege of trying it
fifteen days, and if you are not bene-
fitted. you can return the balance at
our expense.
We To Receive No Money
unless you are satisfied with the trial.
The late Prof. ]. S. Jewell, M. D.,
editor of the Journal of Nervous and
Mental Diseases, published at Chi.
cago, advised DR.. Miles to ''by all
means publish your surprising re-
suits" Prof. j. P. Ross, M. d., presi.
dent of Rush Medical college, wrote
in 1874: DR. Miles has taken two
courses of my private instruction in
diseases of the heart and lungs" Col
N. G. Parker, eX-treasurer of South
Carolina, says: 81 believe DR.. Miles
to be an attentive and skillful physi
clan in field which requires the best
qualities of head and heart" Col. A

81 am not surprised at Judge Dew

HE SAVED A HEAVY DOCTOR BILL

Office of the County Assessor of Mari
 copa County, Phoenix, Arizona, Aug.
 29. 1901
 MezSrs Brown & Miller: A few weeks ago my wife was taken severely i'll with strongly marked symptoms of typ.7oid pneumonia. Her tempera- ture was 1O3 degrees ard her lungs seemed to be congested. accompanied with severe pains. Her condition was really alarming. I procured a box of Adaxuka and administered them oc- cording to directions and in fifteen hours the fev-r was broken and her re- covery was rapid from that time. An astonishing amount of matter was dis charged from her lungs after the fever subsided. I firmly believe Adaxuka saved her from a very serious illness which. judging from the violence of the sympto1is, would probably have proven fatal.
 In grateful recognition of the merits of Adaxuka, I recommend its use in all cases of levers. ih the firm belief that it will do al that is claimed for it. l have also successfully administered this rsaliy wonderful remedy to chil- dren of my neighbcrs who were very sick with malarial fever: one of them. who could keep nothing on it's stomach had its, fever broken in about eighteen hours. and immediately developed. a hearty appetite. In no case did the fever return.
 Every person who has the welfare of his family at heart should keep a box of this wonderful remedy on hand for emergencies.
