RIDGETOWN AMAZED

By the Miraculous Recovery of Driver George Dougherty.

He Lay in Bed for a Year- Bright's Disease and Dropsy were Killing Him–Doctors Said He Must Die, But Dodd's Kidney Pills Cured Him.

Ridgetown, Oct. 24. - The most amazing case that has ever startled the residents of this town occurred recent]y, and the people for miles around can talk of nothing else. If it had taken place in our grandfathers' time, it would have been attributed to the direct interpostion of Providence. It is the saving of a life that the most skillful doctors admitted they could not save; of a man who was nearer to his death than if he had been tossing among the seething waters of the whirlpool at Niaarga.

George Dougherty, a driver for the American Express Co. here, lay dying. He had Bright's Disease and Dropsy. He bad lain in bed for 12 months. Three local doctors attended him. They could give him no relief. Outside physicians were called in. Their skill failed. Many remedies were used, but in vain.

Words cannot paint the sufferings of the patient. Everyone aid he must die. He wished for death to end his agony. Hundreds of dollars were spent for medicines and in doctors' bills. But the disease gew worse and worse. One day M. H. Dougherty, father of the sick man, heard of the cures effected by Dodd's Kidney Pills in Dresden. He bought a box. George began using them. Box after box was used till he had taken 19. Now be is doing his work as if he had never been ill. People stare open-mouthed at him as he passes. It them any wonder?

Dodd's Kidney Pills have cured thousands of cases of Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Dropsy, Diseases of Women, Lumbago, Rheumatism, and all other forms of Kidney Disease. All druggists sell them at 50 cents a box, six boxes $2.50, or they will be sent on receipt of price by The Dodd's Medicine Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
