TO H. LIE.
Having IN most singular manner, ex-
perienced in my family the astonishing
efficacy of Hamilton's Worm Destroying
Lozenges, prepared by the late Mr.. Lee,
feel II my duty to add the following Gu.
rious case to the list of remarkable cures
performed by that celebrated medicine.
My daughter al the age of " months
wa takeh Ill with those symptoms which
ae supposed TO denote worms, after ha
wing tried a number Of ,hings which are
said to be good IN such cases, without
Any benefit, we had he attendance Of a
respect abte physician, bu, she still con.
tinued TO decline in health and at he esd
oil six months became SO weak that she
could not walk, nor keep food on her slo.
mach, 1t was so extremely disordered,
AZ this interesting period, one If our
neighbours recommended your l. asn.
| ges SO earnestly, we were induced TO
send 10 MIR. BiIch's for d box of them !;
on her taking he third dose, according
to the printed directions, there came from
her living animal about three quarters
OF an inch long and Of most friehtful
appearance, being very white, with a
great number of legs, and something
which resembled wings, by which il ap-
Peared to spring; and which it did re
pea'edly, TO our great surprise, about the
same distance that a small toad can hope
on the ground. Its form was altogether
unknown to every person who saw It. Ii
lived in water about1S hours. We after
wards put it in spirits, and it is now in
the possession of DR.. Bleight of this city.
The child grew better from that day in
very short period began to walk again,
aod IS now in perfect health.

curacy and authenticity of this singular
