PAIN IN BACK, MISERABLE ALL OYER
Dear Mr. IMitor:
All last winter T suffered from a ter-
rible pain in my bin k. I felt miserable
nil over, and could not walk lint a short
distance. Was unable to work and did
not sleep will at night as I was obliged
to arise frequently. I learned of Dr.
Pierce's Anuric, that cures sued trou
bles, and sent to him for a trial pack
age. This relieve,) me of getting up at
night, in a short time, and I have gained
considerable. J Hm better now than i
have been for some time; sleep better,
have less rheumatism and do quite n lot
of work for a woman of my age. I had
brick-dust settlings Tn my water before
using "Anuric," now there is none.
Kindly print this letter, it may help
lome one else who suffers us I did, or
worse.
(Signed) Mrs. Klla A. Garrison.
