ONE CONDUCTOR WHO WAS
 CURED.

Mr Milford Adams is his name, and he writes about it: "Some time ago was confined to my bed with chronic rheumatism. used two bottles of Foley's Kidney Remedy with good ef- feet, and the third bottle put me on my feet and I resumed work as con- ductor on the Lexington, Ky, street railway. It gave me more relief than anly medicine had ever used, and it will do all you claim in cases of rheu- matsm." Foley's Kidney Remedy cures rheumatism by eliminating the uric acid from the blood.
