156 MICROBES AND THE MICROBE-KILLER. 



Q. You have taken a good many patent medicines ? 

 A. No, I did not take a good many. 



Q. You are quite a hand at taking medicine, are you 

 not ? A. No, I ain't. 



Q. Why did you take the microbe- killer ? A. I took 

 it because I wanted to get rid of this catarrh. 



George K. L. Klee, being duly sworn, was examined 

 by Mr. James, and testified as follows : 



Q. Where do you live ? A. New York City. 



Q. About what is your age ? A. Between sixty-six and 

 sixty-seven. 



Q. Did you ever take Radam's Microbe-Killer ? A. I did. 



Q. Tell the jury your condition of health when you 

 began taking it. A. My condition of health was very bad 

 when I took it. I was not able to go half a block, and 

 I was not able to lie down at all. I was full of phlegm 

 and felt stopped up. I had several doctors, but they did 

 me no good. I had pneumonia before, and a touch of 

 asthma. The doctor said I could not live and no medi- 

 cine would cure me. By the first gallon of microbe- 

 killer I had relief, as I took four I could go about, and 

 after using it a year I was relieved of all my trouble, and 

 have since gained twenty-five pounds in weight. 



A. You are first-rate now, are you not ? A. Yes, sir, 

 free of everything. 



Q. Breathe easy, sleep well, eat well ? A. I bet you. 



Q. How many gallons did you use altogether ? A. 

 About thirty gallons. I used twenty ; my family uses 

 it too. 



Q. Have you ever felt any bad effects from it. A. No, 

 sir. 



Cross-examined by defendants' counsel : 



Q. Do you say at the time you were sick the doc- 

 tor told you you must not continue in your business ? 

 A. Yes. 



Q. The doctor thought rest would have some effect ? 

 A. The doctors think a good deal. 



Q. You followed the doctor's advice to stop, did you 

 not ? A. I followed, only I took the microbe-killer.
