Before I began it I had to get up from 12 to 20 times each night to relieve my bladder. 1 was all bloated up with dropsy and my eyesight was so impaired that I could scarcely see one of my family across the room. In fact, I was so badly used up that I had given up hope of living when I was by a friend to try FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE.

One 50-cent bottle worked wonders, and before I had taken the third bottle the superfluous flesh had gone, as well as all other symptoms of Kidney trouble. My friends were surprised that I was cured, as they all thought I was going to die.
