"I have no heiitntton in saying that Dr.,
Miles' Heart Cure is nil that one can wish it
to be. I was troubled w.th heart'fiiscasc for
fifteen yean. 1 1 have tried litany different
remedies but until I tried Dr. Mines' Heart.
Cure I could find no relief, 1 was subject to
headaches and had tried your l'aln Pills and.
they were so effective I thought your Heart
Cure might help me. I would have attacks,
at times so severe that I would be stone,
blind for the time being. During these,
spells I would be to all appearances dead.
1 took the medicine strictly as directed and L.
can truthfully say that I am completely cured.
I advise all that are troubled with heart dis
ease to take Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure(
at once. I write this and give my name to.
my fellow sufferers." S. IS. Purdy, Atkinson,,

"I first felt the effects of a weak heart Itv
the fall of 1896. L saw an advertisement 1,
the SloUx City paper in which a man Jtste'd,
his symptoms which seemed to me to indicate-,
a trouble similar to mine. I had a soreness,
in the chest at times, and in my shoulder, an
oppressive choking sensation in my throat
and suffered from weak and bunary spells.
I was truly frightened et my condition and
procured six bottles of Dr. Miles' Htart Cure.,
Since taking my first bottle, I havo newt
been bothered by any of the old disagree-,
