\gi ONE BOTTLE CURES M McBURNEY'S Kidney and Bladder (Eure TO THE PUBLIC:— Kidney and Bladder Troubles, one of the ills with which the human family has suffered for untold ages, has at last met with a conqueror in Mcßurney's Kidney and Bladder Cure. Numbers of well known citizens of this and other cities will testify to the fact that this is no ordinary patent medicine, such as is generally offered to cheat and defraud the public, but is a genuine aud unfailing cure for all troubles arising from a deranged condition of the kidneys and bladder. I stand to substantiate this fact with references and testimonials from the best and most reliable citizens of So. California. I am engaged in the harness business at 418 South Spring street, Los Angeles, California, and have been for the last ten years, so you may readily decide that I could not forfeit my reputation as a reliable business man of this city by offering anything for sale that would not prove to be just as represented. For three years I suffered untold agonies with severe pains in my back, hips, and bladder. My feet and ankles were swollen; I was unable to sleep well at night; I had a constant desire to urinate, accompanied by a burning sensation, aud a general tired feeling. I consulted the most eminent physicians of this city without relief, aud I then took all the leading remedies of ONE BOTTLE CURES TESTIMONIALS.

Mcßurney, Los Angeles, Cal. — Dear Sir:—lt affords me pleasure to testify to the efficacy of your Bladder Cure. I have been troubled with my kidneys and bladder for over four years. I have been treated by the best physicians of this city during that time. (I mention two who stand at the head of the profession, viz: Dr. C. A. Purdy, and . Drs. Frank and Walls, the latter being my son.) I regret to say they did me no good. I was advised to spend the winter in your glorious climate, and try the ocean baths. I visited San Diego, Santa Monica, and Santa Barbara, but received only temporary relief from the baths. On the night before I left for home I got a bottle of your medicine. The first dose did me good and I was well when I reached home, and can say in conclusion that I am grateful to you. If this letter is of any use to you, use it as you think proper. Yours very truly, Thos. Walls. Sworn statement from a citizen of Rivera who is a pioneer resident of Los Angeles count}-: a sworn* statement. Mr. Mcßurney— Los Angeles, Cal. I suffered with kidney and bladder troubles for twenty years. My physicians claimed my troubles to be an incurable case of Bright's disease. They gave me very little relief.

At last, in a happy combination of certain formulas iv my possession, I found a cure, and at the end of ten days I was able to walk from my residence to my place of business, (a distance of three miles), while hitherto I had been unable to walk more than three blocks, and then only under severe pain. I was so delighted at my speedy relief that I decided to give some of my friends the advantage of my discovery; so to everyone whom I could learn was suffering with this complaint, I gave a small vial with directions as to it use. Invariably all to whom I gave the medicine would return iv a few days aud tell me that it had relieved them wonderfully, aud they each suggested that I offer it for sale, so that all suffering from this complaint could have an opportunity for relief. The thousands of testimonials which I now hold in my office, many of which were given in my presence and the presence of others, and the wonderful demand for this rented}' in the last fourteen months since its appearance, are proofs unquestionable as to the strict merit of this truly wonderful cure.
