Hardwick, Weil Known Grocer, Tells of Remarkable Benefits Derived From Its Use. Nothing Compares With it, He Says. "I am here to tell you that noth ing compares with this Andes. I do not wonder any more wKy bo many people talk about it. When I first heard of the medicine I paid very little attention to what was said: it went in one ear and came out the other, for I had heard many times before of cure-alls. "But every time that I would mention to my friends about feel ing so tough, they would say, 'Why on earth don't jou use Andes?' Finally I had an old friend call me up over the telephone. He had Just finished his third bottle and was so enthused over tho results that It had given him, I decided to try it. I purchased three bottles and It has acted just as good in my' case as others I have heard of. "I wouldn't even try to describe how I suffered, for I simply could not do it," said Mr. Hardwick, the well known grocer of Birmingham a few days aso. "1 had rheumatism for several months' and the pain was so intense I could hardly sleep and I was so badly affected that I A'ouid just walk around. This con dition pulled me down until I had little or no desire to cat, and 1 was miserable. I was worn out and ex hausted from tho pain the greater part of the time. I fell off In weight, and was in a deplorable condition, which seemed to be get ting more hopeless all the time. 1 have used five bottles of this Andes and it positively Is wonder ful how a few bottles of this medi cine has made me pick up and re lieved me from all this suffering. 1 now sleep like a log, and eat heartily and feel cood in every way. "After doing so much good for me, 1 got a supply for my wife, who has been n sufferer from catarrh of the stomach for more than five years. Four bottles have brought a great change in her con dition. Before trying it, she could eat nothing but rare meat and very light diets; but slio Is now able to eat sausage, cabbage and 'other vegetables that she has not been able to enjoy for years. She sleeps well and has actually gained ten pounds in weight. We feel like that Andes has done a sreat deal for us, and I do not hesitate to tell my customers when they cflme to the store."
