MISS BULL RECEIVERS
FEARFUL DECLINE OF STRENGTH
COMPLETELY ARRESTED.
Medical Skill Had Almost Exhausted Itself
in Vain Attempts to Relieve Her-A
Remarkable Result.

The recovery of Miss Gertrude L. Bull

A very bad cough followed a severe at

the doctors and the use of several adver-

self up to despair.
"What was your condition at this
timer" she was asked.
my stomach was so weak I could not
keep food down. I suffered from con-
slant nausea. My kidneys were in ter.
rible condition. My feet and ankles were
swollen so badly that it panied me even
to stand on them. I was very bilious.
My heart was in bad shape SO I could
not go up and down stairs or stand any
exertion or sleep in a natural position"
cit seems a wonder that you should
ever have recovered. How did it
happen?"

Compound and writing Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass, for advice, which is free.
Miss Margret Merkley of e75 Third

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
