STRIKING INSTANCES OF SUCCESS

Extract of letter from ply stefan of the first
responsibility, and extensive practice, in this
vicinity, member of the Massachusetts Medi-
cal Society JUNE 10th, 1899.
Dear Sir" This child, before he year
old, became afflicted with a eprous disease of the
skin, and which gradually increased, so that,
when about three years old, the whole surface
of the body was one continued sore, attended
with an ichorous discharge, producing great sore
ness and intoerable itching, which became al
most insupportable. A great variety of the most
approved external and internal remedies were
used without any permanent relief. Much in
terest excited in behalf of the child, and con-
sequently different medical advice was solicited
but with little or no advantage. The disease
progressed with undated violence, and seemed
to defy the healing art At length, the parent
was induced, by the advice of neghbor, (who
had been benefited by the article) 10 try DR..
Relies Botanical Drops Several bottles were
given according to the directions, before the
least abatement of the disease was observed; but
by persevering use of them, the ichorous dis
charges began to abate the scabs to give wav in
places, and fall off. The Drops were continued
until the boy became perfectly well, the skin re-
suming its natural and healthy aspect, seeming
indeed like renovated skin-since which time
the boy has enjoyed perfect health, and his cure
is ascribed wholly to the Drops, as no other med
lcine was used in conjunction with them"
