tiiude 10 yourself, | tender this, trusting il
may prove useful TO those similarly afflicted.
About twelve years ago she complained OF
severe pains in her back and hip, which
grew worse and worse until she was almost
unable to move, or turn herselfin bed, Du.
ring this period her back and hip sweiled We
ny much, and the pain extended down the
leg, which lost its natural power wasting

sued, and her countenance depicted misery
She continued without much, il any, alterati'
On tor The better, Creeping her strictly under
tue advice OF an eminent medical gentleman, J
Tor considerable time, when the swelling
on the hip began to increase herphysiCian'
