on stomach troubles, of which he had (1

years, Dr. H. V. Reese today, at'
seventy-four years of age, weighs
* forty pounds more than he has ever
weighed, is hale and hearty and i
possesses more vigor than most men ;
of fifty. ?'
It was in 1898 that Dr. Reese, 1
then a practicing physician of Huntington,
W. Va., was told there was '^
no hope for his recovery. His condition
at that time was so critical
that it was impossible for him to retain
either food or drink on hisj
1 stomach, and when, after going as'
!
long as possible without any|
nourishment, he would have to wash]
out his stomach before he had hardly
swallowed a second mouthful.
In fact,. Dr. Reese's condition finally
required the washing out of his
stomach two and three times daily.
In addition to stomach trouble Dr.
Reese suffered from severe liver
I
and kidney troubles, which generally
accompany stomach ailments.

every known agency of the medical i
profession and had sper.t the major i

"While the United States had every
