Reads Like a Miracle.

Friarspoint, Miss. Nov. 30.-The
Butler case still continues to be the
talk of the town. Mr.. G. l.. Butler, the
father of the little boy, says:
Tho doctor said my boy had disease
of the spinal enrd and treated him
for two month";, during which he got
worse all the time Finally the doctor
told me he did not know what was the
trouble. The boy would wake up dur
ing the night and say that he was
dying He would be nervous and trem-
bling and would want to run from the
house. saying he saw ugly things
which frightened him. After we had
tried everything else, read an adver-
Hsement of Dodd's Kidney Pills as a
cure for Nervous Troubles pur-
chased some and used them until he
mad taken altogether eight boxes when
he was sound and well with not sin
gle symptom o. the old trouble. This
was some months ago, and | feel sure
that he is permanently cured. We owe
to Dodd's Kidney Pills all the credit
for his restoration to good health"
