Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die

In 1908 we wrote you regard
ing my husband, who was suf-
fering from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised DR..
Miles Heart Remedy and Re-
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great deal of camp meeting
work. l am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that | ought
to let you know of the wonder
full good results from its use"
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Miner, Ga.
This proves what DR.. Miles
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
1t does not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get
YOUR money back.
