Another Bescne Ftom Death.
In list, while sairing on a mrchine, my
wife wu taken with a Nvara pain la her
???Ida, which wu aoon followed by hrmor-
rages from her lungs, aim cough and
fever, and could neither rat or deep,and In
a tew weeks wu reduced to a mere skeleton.
Her stomach tabued to retain any food and
the physician thought one of harlncgawa,
entirely gone. At a final consultation ot
two physicians her case wu pronounced
hopeless. I tried Brewer???s Lneg Restorer
by ad rice of one of tha physician, and she
began to Improve after the third doae. she
continued tba medicine and ta now In ex
cellent health and la better then aha baa
been la aaveral yean, I believe Brewer's
Lung Restorer raved her life.
