eaten up. and part of the Jaw Bone carried away. And
yet can give no description OF his case.
MIR. b. informs that in January last, the whole interior
of his month"; we'll most Of his lace, was mass Of
deep and painful ulcers.
On the nth of January last, lie commenced taking Dr.
CulIes Indian Vegetable Paacea, which checked the
disease few days. and rum thai time the cure has pro-
gres>ed without intemission.
New flesh has supplied the place Of the deep ulcers. and
though badly disGgrcd his face is sound and s general
health il restored
We are assured that in the treatment Of Mr. Brooks
