Central Waterville, York Co., N.B., Dec. 7.—(Special).—The case of F. W. Harris, of thie place, is one more evidence of the wonderful work Dodd'.s Kidney Pills are doing in New Brunswick. Mr. Barris makes tionne following: ,statement for publica- ti "I suffered for two years and a half from Kidney Troubles, being un- a,ble to attend to my work the great- er part of the time. I tried many medicines without getting any bene- fit, but actually grew worse. "I took three boxes of Dodd'e Kid- • ney Pills and they cured me. I think Dedd's Kidney Pills are a wsonder- ful remedy for Kidney trouble." Bright's Disease is the most ad- vanced stage of Kidney Disease. Dodo's Kidney Pills aro the only rem- edy that will cure it.
