I consulted seseral distinguished pbyaicians In
regard to It, and have taken their preserlpllone
as ordered, but did not find any oure and but
little relief. I waa told by many persons who
have the 8alt Rheum, and who hare been doc
tored for years, that thero waa no oure for it;
that it was In the blo-d, and X should always
have it, and J was almost inollnad to agree with
thorn, but a friend wanted mo try Cunouna,
made by your firm. X dl*, and to my astonish
ment, In le.s than three weeks my head was
