a bottle of the Heart Cure, nnd In less than
on hour after taking the first dose I could
feci a decided Improvement In tho circulation
of my blood. When I had taken three doses I
could *ovo my ankles, something I had not *
done for months,and my limbs had been swol
len so long that they seemed almost putrlflcd. ■
Before I had taken ono bottle of the New
Heart Cure tho swelling had ull gone down,
nnd 1 was so much better that I did my own
work. On my recommendation six others nre
