. BONK DISEASE. ,
I’MTVENTtoN MCTTF.U THAN COtE.
It is a common thing to see cattle chew
ing at a bone ns if it were the most deli
cious morsel the world afforded. It is by
no means uncommon to rind cattle, and
especially milch cow s, suffering from what
is called Bone, disease. A very proper and
significant name it is, for it is a weakness
and frailty of the bones themselves, and is
caused solely by the want of food contain
ing a sufficiency of the indespensHrie bone
mukiflg material. Phosphate oj Lime. 1 hoy
have been feeding in pastures which have
been robbed of w hat cannot be dispensed
with in the structure ot bones, to such an
extent that the cattle sutler. The instincts
of the animal lead it to seize a bone just as
hunger prompts us to eat loud.
Most farmers understand the diagnosis
of the disease, and many attempt a pallia-,
tion of the evil bv feeding them with doses
of hone meal. If they fully apprehended
what a shiftless makeshift such a proceed
ing is, compared with another method
which would radically prevent the evil,
largely increase their crops, and put money
in their pockets, all by one operation, they
would feed their hungry soils, and lot their
hungrv cow s eat of the luxuriant and jully
nutritious herbage w hich may be grown
by the appluoittm of phosphates. Ket the
cattle have all the bone-phosphate they
need by all mean-, but make it do double
service. T.et it increase the herbage and
enrich the fodder in the first place, and
after the phosphate has done tin-, and has
itself been worked ov er and •* progressed ”
and cooked and prepared by the processes
ol nature into the tortn in which it ought
to be administered. then let the cattle par
tafet ot it daily and every time they eat.
Is the case of dairy animals this evil is
deeper seated and more widely spread
than is generally rvslind.

finally suggested t<» me Helm bold’s Buehu. which I
commenced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for almut a month. At the expir
ation of that time, however, I thought 1 commenced
to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to
persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration of
four months, although 1 ani an infirm old man.
nearly 78 years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favorably affect me as they
otherwise would, I have found' such unspeakable

A PERMANENT Cl HE OF (j» WEL OF TWELVE
YEARS STANDING—STONE PASSED
AND TO RE SEEN.
Burnside, Conn . Dec. 15,1SG8.
Dr. IIelmhold— Dear Sir; It is with much
pleasure that I write you upon fuetijf respecting my
self. 1 do not know hardly how to express myself.
1 have been for the last ten or twelve years the
greatest sufferer man could be and live; but more :
sometimes than others. The complaint was the
“Kidneys” and “Bladder.” 1 have been nometimes 1
from twelve to fourteen hours, and wanted to make
water every minute, but could not. Have consult- :
ed doctors, both in Massachusetts and this State,
and taken pills, 1 may say. by the quart, also li.j- !
uored medicines, but found no relict from any, and i
got worse the last six months. 1 was so that 1*could
scarcely gel about. 1 could not rest night or day.
It would soon have been “all tip” with me if I had 1
not seen your advertisement in “The Berkshire j
Courier” headed “Kulnevs.” 1 read it through and
thought I would try it. 1 purchased a bottle, but,
mindyou, hud not much faith in it. Why* should 1,
when 1 had been trying so many things and cost me
so much ? Well, I began taking it. and before 1 had
taken the first bottle 1 felt bad; but 1 finished it and
got another. By the time 1 took half of the second
I still got worse (apparently). When I walked it
seemed as if my right kidney was falling from its
place, and 1 felt really bad. I felt so, before I hail
tlnished tiie second, that 1 hud made lip my mind it
was of no use trying any more—and all this time
the “Buehu” was doing its work, but 1 did not
know it; so 1 gave it up and went to Hartford on
Saturday to see one of tile best doctors in the citv.
lie -aid it w as the neck of the hlad'h r, and 1 should
have to undergo an operation. He gave me med
icine, and I went home quite downhearted. On
Sunday 1 wras unable to go to church. I had not
taken any of his medicine, but on my return contin
ued using the “Buehu,” and in the afternoon I had
a desire to make water, but could not. About one
hour utter this 1 tried again, with the same result;
but the next time I took the vessel it was the same
as turning a faucet and stopping it off again. It
was so for three times, and the third time there w as
something eatue through the passage and struck .
against the side of the vessel. 1 examined it, and it
is the ugliest stone or gravel you ever «mv. cov
ered over with little peiee* which collided together.
It looks the color of a mud turtle, and is as hard as
a flint. So you see the “Buehu” w as doing it> work
although 1 was feeling so badly. 1 procured an
other bottle thinking tlieir might lie some more be
hind, blit since that has passed, which is eight
weeks ago last Sunday, 1 have been as well as ever
1 w as in my life. 1 have the stone securely w rapped
and those who have seen it iu this place, are sur
prised. I cannot tell you all. hut this is a true story
of my case, and you are welcome to make such use
of my name as you think proper. I am pretty w ell
known in Berkshire; also in Connecticut. The ad-,
vertisement saved me. Why not publish more?
The Springfield Republican is a wide-spread paper
If any one wishes to see this wonder, they can do
so. I could write all day, but think 1 have said :
enough this lime, so 1 remain vour ever w ell w isher,

Mr. II. T. IIki.mbold—Okvr Sin: lu regard to
the question asked me as to my opinion about Hu
ehu, I would sny I have used and sold the article in
various forms for the past thirty years I do not
think there is any form or preparation of it I have not
u-ed, or know n to be used, in the various diseases
where such medicate agent would be indicated.
\ on are aware, as well as myself, that it has been
extensively employed in the various diseases of the
bladder aud kidneys, aud the reputation it ha-ac
quired. in my judgment, i- w arranted by the facts
I have seen and used, as lieforc stated. every form
of Bucliu—the powdered leaves, tincture, fluid ex
tracts —and I am not congnizaiit of any preparation
of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve years’
experience ought. 1 think, to give me the right to
judge of it.-, merits; and. without prejudice or par
tiality . I give yours precedence over all others.
1 value your Huehu for its effects on patients. I
have cured w ith it, and seen cured with it, more
diseases of the Madder and kidneys than 1 have
ever seen cured w ith any other Buenu or any other
proprietary compound of whatever name. Respect

1 did this because 1 had used a’l kinds of adver

Dr. H. T. IIllmhoi.d: Two bottles onlv of the

maid who has chu; gc of his bedding. 1 feel that a
know ledge of the result of our use of your Buchu
with the children under our charge may save many
a superintendent and matron of boarding-schools
and asylums a great amount of annoyance; and j
many a poor child, -uttering more from weakness
than*from habit, may be spared punishment that is
(not knowing it as*n weakness instead of a bad
habit) most unjustly inflicted upon them. Thank

may be alike benefited, 1 am respectfully yours,

against advertising ‘ cures for secret diseases,” it
was left unanswered. During an accidental con
