For the Daily Wing.
CINCINNATI, JAN 90, 1889.
Dr. Lawson-Sr: Having been informed that YOU
have, during the last year past, prescribed in your
practice DR.. Sherwood's Electro Magnetic Remedies,
in upwards OF fifty cases, all OF which CHRONIC
DISEASES including Scrofua, with great success take
the liberty OF making the inquiry of you whether my
informant was justified in making such report from
your own admission OF the act2
Ii you confirm this report, should consider it duty
we owe to the cause OF humanity to give publicity
as much possble and, false, we should dsabuse
the public mind of the imposition.

practice detect diseases by this method Of examination
Respectfully, B. W.
Dear Sir: Your communication of the S3d inst was
duly received, ard answer should more promptly
have been given but for the want Of leisure hou, and
doubt resting on my mind in regard to the proprety
OF noticing anonymous letters.
Nothing now, SO much influences me to accede to
your wish, as conviction of the importance OF the
facts which you wish to elicit from me, and thereby
ditfuse them more generally through society,"
have perfect detesalion of everything that has
been presented 10 the world in the form OF what has
been generally denominated "quack medicines and
on this account have always felt delicacy in appen-
ding my name or giving my influence to nything
which may justly be "dubbed" with such an appea-
ton.
In the case OF DR.. Sherwood Remedies, am some.

tons: first, from the stubborn fact that, in my own
person, derived the most decided beneficial! effects
from their use and at a time when all other means
were pronounced as incompetent CUE; and in the
second place from being myself pretty we'll acquaint-
ed with the composition Of the Remedies
These two facts will serve as an apology for me in
candldy expressing my opinion with regard to the
dicne. Ii did not believe that thousands suf-
ering from diseases ncurab!e under any other system
OF practice, and certainly durable under this, wond
not dare to offer one word in favor OF Sherwoods Re

ior one moment, to recommend them infinitely SUI
perior, in chronic diseases, any present

and generally with success. | am, however, OF the
opinion that in advanced stages of pulmonary con-
sumption they are not etfectual one would be led
to suppose from reading DR.. Sherwoods pamphlet.
LIN almost every other form of scrofuIa they have
surpassed my most sanguine expectations. There are
many ctlzons OF Cincinnati who will certify to

fitted from any course which had been pursued land in
these you know everything is tried that heard

too, to prove all that is claimed fol them even by Dr.
s. himself, with the single exception have made
above.
| do not wish to be understood 10 convey tue idea
that they intable; that is my nearing nor inn
preston, concerning anything on this earth; but do
believe them to be effectua in curing chronic dsea-
ses as ordinary remedies are in curing the ordinary

which was made, and again referred to-.
With regard to the symptoms, believe that they
cannot be gansayed | can detect, with the greatest
certainty the diseases called by Dr. Sherwood scrofula
without any previous knowledge of the patient or of
the history OF his disease; and this do merely by an

The ordinary course Of feeling he pulse, looking at
the tongue, and asking a hundred questions, more or
less is both useless and waste of time. do think
that skilled in this mode of examination can be
deceived once in hundred cases. In my practice, |
pursue this mode OF examination exclusively, with
great saving OF time, and much more sastactoryre
suit. This is as much as deem it necessary to
communicate Yours, &c. B. S. LAWSON.
