IAM FIFTY-EIGHT YEARS OF AGE.

For the last six years I have been a martyr to rheumatism and rheumatic gout which absolutely prostrated me every winter, conhning me to bed each year for several weeks, rendering me wholly unable to follow my calling as a civil and mining engineer for long time after each attack. Your Smith s Kidney Remedy was recommended to me last July. I took several bottles of it then, when the time of my usual at tacks came around took it regularly as you prescribe. One winter has now passed and I delight to tell you that I have not felt one twinge of either mala- dy, although the season was very cold and wet and I exposed myself unusually in laying out and building these large works. I will certainly recommend your medicine. Wishing you great sue cess and congratulating you on your prescription, l have the pleasure to re- main, yours very truly, John N. Adams, C. and NJ.
