New York. Gentlemen, I have
been suffeiing lrom disorders of the
livei and stomach foi the last six
years, and tried almost every
remedy recommended to me with
out nn lin more than temporary
relief at the best, until I was ad
vised to iiM.- the imported Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt. I ocv.asion.Uly added
teaspoonful of the Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt to the first gobletful
of water, which I took early in
the morning. My improvement
was most marked. At the end of
three weeks my liver was reduced
to its normal sie, and the pain in
it had entirely ceased. I have
gained in flesh 16 1-4 pounds, and
feel that I am permanently recover
ing. I am so grateful for the benefit
deiived trom the use of the Carls
bad Sprudel Water, that I permit
you to use this statement as you
may see fit.
