SCARLET FEVER CURED.
.,4stonishinr Effect of Watey G,uel

A poor child, in William street, was taken dewn
with scarlet fever The doctor in attendance had
been remarkably unsuccessful, and determined to
see what no medicine would do in all the cases
he had heard Of this fever were tata and he con-
| cluded that no medicine would be worse than this
had proved. So in this case he ordered Water
Cruel The poor mother knew how fatal this fever
had been, and she though" Il will give my child
Brandreth's Pills and the Cruel" So she gave
him four Pills which operated well. The doctor
the next day, was pleased. told the mother the
child was doing well, and 10 go on with the water
Cruel. She did-and four more Pills. Every day
the doctor ordered Cruel, and every day the mother
gave from two to four Brandreih's Pills. In a
little more than week the child was well. The
doctor said THAT case had given him a lesson; for
the child was cured simply by Cruel, whereas every
other case Of scarlet fever he had had that winter
he had lost, when he had pursued active treatment
But now he was satisfied that Nature was the best
ply stefan, aided by water Cruel; he might have
added and Brandrehs Pills.
The genuine Brandreth Pills can5 obtained

DROPsY OF THE HEAD CURED.

A poor child, boy about two years old, was
given up to die. The parents, nelg hbors and doc
tors had no hopes Of his recovery. For several
days his breathing had been short and death like
and, in fact, those around him supposed another
night would be his last In this stage of the case,
an aunt OF the child was sent for, with whom the
little sufferer was great favorite This lady
having arrived, and being seated by the child, ask
ed few questions as the condition of the child's
bowels, and then expressed an opinion that Bran
dreth's Pills were capable of saving its life. She
was SO earnest in her remarks that her advice was
followed from the moment. She gave him two
Pills at once, and followed them up with more in
about an hour; she crushed the Pills and gave them
in molasses, washing them down with little tea .
The effect was surprising in six hours she had
were OF the most malignant nature. Suffice it to
say, that in fity-two hours she had given him
fity-two Pills, and all the alarming symptoms had
entirely disappeared: He is now we'll, and, tho
before weakly child, he is now strong; he is
in fact, re made.
