Dear Doctors-1t was twelve years ago that
I had a severe case Of Pneumonia in the right
lung, and of course, left it in very weak
ened condition, and 1t never healed. From
that time on whenever 1 caught cold 1t was
troublesome and continued to get
1 grew worse and failed in my health in many
ways account of that.
In February of 1905 I saw the advertisement
of this institution and | came here in Sep
tember of the same year for treatment
coughing and raising good deal at that
time and had had some chils and fever be-
fore I came here They made a thorough ex-
animation of my lungs and found there was a
large accumulation Of mucus that medicines
had failed to reach.
After six weeks of this treatment the ac-
emulation came up more freely and my gem
eral health better. After three months
1t was entirely cleaned out.
l can honestly and safely recommend this
course of treatment to any who is in
like condition. l have now been at home in
Nebraska and without treatment for six
months and am in good condition at the pres
ent time, shown by an X-ray examination.
Yours truly,
