and after using four jugs was completely cured At this time I could eat anything and had no kidney whatever Am glad to say have continued well ever since Before beginning the use of Microbe Killer my friends were alarmed about me and said they feared I would soon be carried to the grave I have since recommended it to many and am to say in every case it has given entire satisfaction It was I who first recommended it to and procured it for C D Spencer of Fergus Michigan and from this 186 jugs of the remedy were sold there in twelve weeks Very truly yours REV GEO H REV B F ZELL Pastor Baptist

lungs were closed up solid This discouraged much I went home in Marion I saw D Take who told me of Wm Microbe Killer I soon found out that it would help me Later on I sent for two more cases At the
