CURE OF CANcER.-Mr. L. N. Gardner
of Gowanda, Cattaraugus Co.. N. Y, an
old subscriber, called on us yesterday
and exhibited a hand which had been ap-
parently cured Of terrible cancer of
many years growth, covering nearly the
entire back of his right hand, and having
eaten through the bone of the little fin
ger, at the root of which it began. Mr..
Gardner assures US that this cure was eff
fected within the last six months by DR..
II. N. Gilbert of this City, mo. 483
Broadway, after he had vainly subjected
it TO protracted treatment by several emf
nent physicians. We do not indorse any
thing in the medical way, but, as we have
seen Dr.. Gilbert's extraordinary skill in
curing Cancer editorially and strongly
commended by The Christian AdUocate
and Journal, we can do no less than ad
wise those who are suffering from ncipi-
cnt Or fully developed cancer to look in
to the alleged cures of Dr.. G. and Judge
for themselves.
