MRS. McRANEY-S EXPERIENCE Mrs. M. Mcßaney, Prentiss. Miss., •writes: “I was confined to my bed for three months with kidney and bladder trouble, and was treated by two physicians but failed to get relief. No human tongue can tell how I suffered, and I had given up hope of ever getting well until I began taking Foley’s Kidney Remedy. After taking two bottles I felt like a new person, and feel it my duty to tell suffering women what Foley’s Kidney Remedy did for me.” THE HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO.
