This Is Miraculous,

Manhattan, Hans, March H.--One Of
the strangest cases that has ever been
heard of in Riley Co. is that of the three
year-old daughter of Mr. Jonas Brubaker
of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took whoop.
ing cough, which was followed by pneu.
monia. When We pneumonia left her, she
was taken down with malaria fever with
at times symptoms of Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safely
through these troubles, but after the fever
Bright's Disease set in and the doctors
gave her up. Her father tells the rest of
the story:
I'VE began to give her Dodd's Kidney
Pills and after she had taken about three
and a half boxes she was entirely cured
Now she is well as any child, running and
playing as if nothing had ever been the
matter with her The doctors said she
was beyond the reach of medicine Dodds
Kidney Pills certainly saved our little
girls life, when she was so far into the
chronic stage of Bright's Disease that we
thought nothing could save her"
