FOLEY’S KIDNEY GURE is made from a prescription of a specialist in kidney diseases and was used for years in pri- vate practice before it was put on the market. Not Straighten Up Thomas Maple, Birbeck, Ill., writes: ‘I had a very bad case of kidney trouble and my back pained me so I could not straighten up. The doctor’s treatment did me no good. Saw FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE advertised and took one bottle which cured me and I have not been affected since. I gladly recommend this remedy.”’ Three Physicians Treated Him Without Success W. L. Yancy, of Paducah, Ky., writes: ¢‘I had a severe case of kidney disease and three of the best physicians in southern Kentucky treated me without success. I then took FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE. The first bottle gave imme- diate relief and three bottles cured me permanently. I gladly recommend this wonderful remedy.”’ Suffered Twenty-Five Years Seymour Webb, of Moira, N. Y., writes: ¢I had been troubled with my kidneys for twenty-five years and had tried several physicians but received no relief until I bought a bottle of FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE.
