Men past middle life have found
comfort and relief in Foley's Remedy,
especially for enlarged prostate gland,
which is very common among elderly
men. L. E. Morris, Dexter, KY,
writes: up to year ago my father
suffered from kidney and bladder
trouble and several physicians pro-
nounced it enlargement of the
prostate gland and advised an opera
tion. On account of his age we were
afraid he would not stand it and
recommended Foley's Kidney Remedy,
and the first bottle relieved him, and
after taking the second bottle he was
no longer troubled with this com.
