Gents: — ’ Tia withpleas- ure I write to let you know what Eureka has done for me, and I deem it my duty to your medicine and the public. I have suffered for over 20 years with kidney difficulty I suffered severe pain in my hack and could not lay on my right side in bed, my right limb pained me a great deal and the joints were badly swollen; had to get up several times during every night to urinate which had a deep sediment to it of brick color tinge. A friend persuaded me to Eureka, which I did with the following success. Before I had taken all the first bottle the pain had all left my back and the swelling had {ill disappeared from my-limb.and I could go to try bed and sleep all night without having to get up, and before I had taken but very little of the second bottle I could lay on either side in bed; was entirely free from pain and td-day am very happy to say I consider myself cured of the trouble I have so long suffered. I recom mend it to all ladies suffering -with like com plaint, as physieia ns with which I have doctored told me my case had become chronic and in curable. Respectfully, M rs .-J ohn I. C lapper .
