I raftered twelve years from indigestion and

severe attack of la grippe, from the effects of
which I suffered with sore eyes, catarrh ot the
head, atomaeh and bowels, deranged condition
of kidneys and tbe worst sort ofc .se cf piles.
In fact, I was confined to my bed for eighteen
months and waa given up to die of consump
tion; great abscesses formed on my lungs, snd
when they would break, I coughed up quanti
ties of offensive matter and blood, f eutle-ed
with high fever in my longs, bowels and stom
ach. No language cen describe my sufferings
Alter all remedies bad failed and my'do. tor
