doctor and asked him to tiXaml
He said I was better than he' ever
expected to see me and asked If I was
taking his medicine. When I told him
I was not, but was taking Dr. Miles’
Heart Remedy, he said, ‘Thank the
Lord for Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy.’ I
continued to take it, and while I
realized my heart was damaged so 1
could not expect a permanent cure, for
fifteen years I worked every day,' not
withstanding I had been told I would
never work again. In July, 1911, I was
taken with rheumatism again, and it
went to my heart as before. I got so
bad that one of the Albany papers
wrote up my life and said I could not
live but a few hours. I again took
Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy with very
satisfactory results, and have not
missed a day at business or in the
legislature since January. I feel that
Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy has saved
my life and cannot recommend it too
highly.”
Dr. Mllea’ Heart Remedy Is sold and
guaranteed by all druggists.
