The attending physician declared she had Lung Trouble and was beyond all med leal aid. So I immediately had Rev. Wm. Berg to send for a bottle. Practically without hope for recovery, I Insisted that she try the Alter ative. which she did. I am glad to say that she toon began to improve. Now, she works as hard as ever, weighs twenty pounds heavier than she ever did before she took sick, and is In good health.” (Affidavit) .108 GRIMMER. (Above abbreviated, more on request.)
