SNAKE REMOVED FROM A WoMlT's SrON-
,rH-Thc LoganSport Ind Pines states
that \ MEYERS, of that city, who was acquir-
eI some celebrity as the inventor Of trap for
,lc the remoyG! Of tape worms, has recently
performed a cure that is worthy of more than
ordinary MENTION
Mrs. T. RYAN, of Fort Wayne, about %
years Of age. has been severely afflicted for four
Gears with sensation in the stomach, as though
there was some reptile moving in it. Daring
that time size was treated for various diseases
BY numerous physicians of skill, and by several
for tape worm. Hearing Of Dr. MEYERS new
process for the removal of parasite from the
human stomach, Mrs. r went to Logansport
and placed herself under his charge.
Withiug two weeks Dr. y. removed from
her stomach snake about feet long, and
! - inches in diameter instead of aggravat
ins it, as had been the result Of the previous
treatment she received The latter part of her
illness was unable to attend to the domestic
care of her family or even to take care Of her
s.If 1t took two hours to prepare for rctir
ing ct night, an equal length Of time before
She could lie doWn-and often she WAS depriY-
cd Of sleep for nights together Frequently
she walk the floor until exhausted because
unable to lie down without the most excruciat-
iag pain Mrs RYAN's own words are that
her suferings were such that she often prayed
for death to relieve them, Mrs r. supposed she
swallowed the snake, which was apparently of
the water species, while drinking from a spring
in the evening at her former residence west Of
Fort Wayne She left the care Of Dr. NJ for
home, feeling as though she was saved from
worse than death
