Show ALMOST A MIRACLE. Case No. 49.T63. Mrs. M. Isted, of 1207 Strand street, Galveston, Tex.,. bo is proprietor of a boarding housff at that address, numbering among her boarders a dozen medical students, stu-dents, says: "I caught cold during the flood of September, 1900, and it settled set-tled in my kidneys. Despite the fact that I tried all kinds of medicines and was UBder the care of physicians, the excruciating twinges and dull aching, across the small of my back refused to leave, and trouble with the kidney - secretions began to set in. From then, ordinary Anglo-Saxon fails to-describe to-describe the annoyance and suffering I endured. The fearful pain through my body, loss of appetite, loss of Bleep, consequent loss of energy, and, finally, indication of complete dissolution compelled me, from sheer agony and pain, to either lie on the floor and scream, or forced me into spasms. On such occasions my husband hus-band called in a physician, whose morphine" mor-phine" treatment relieved me temporarily. tempo-rarily. I grew weaker and thinner,and so run down physically that nothing, was left but skin and bone. All my friends, acquaintances and neighbors tnew about my critical condition, and on one occasion I was reported dead and they came to see my corpse. At last the doctors attending me held a consultation and agreed that if I did not undergo an operation I could not live. Preparations were made, a. room selected at the city hospital, and they even went so far as to have the carriage brought to the door to carry me there. I don't know why, but something told me not to go, and I absolutely ab-solutely refused. Now I want the reader to grasp every word of the following: fol-lowing: A friend of ours, a Mr. Me-Gaund, Me-Gaund, knowing that my kidneys were the real cause of the entire trouble, brought a box of Doan's Kidney Kid-ney Pills to the house, and requested me to give them a trial. I had taken so much medicine that I was mora than discouraged, and had little, il any, faith in any preparation. However, How-ever, I reasoned if they did not do me good they could not possibly make ma worse, so I began the treatment. Aftei the third dose, I felt something dart across me like a flash of lightning, and from that moment I began to im prove. The pain in my back and kidneys kid-neys positively disappeared, the kidney kid-ney secretions became free and natural. nat-ural. At present I rest and sleep well, Bay appetite is good, my weight has increased from 118 to 155 pounds, and my flesh is firm and solid. My friends actually marvel at the change In my appearance. Words cannot express ex-press my own feelings. I am not put- ting it too strongly when I say I have been raised from the dead. I am satisfied sat-isfied that had it not been for Doan's Kidney Pills, taken when they were, I would have been either lying in the Lake View Cemetery, or an invalid for the balance of my life. I will be only too pleased to give minuter particulars particu-lars of my case to any one calling on me, not, of course, out of idle curiosity, curios-ity, but if they really have kidney complaint and want to know what course to pursuo to get relief."
