The WATER CURE

EDITORS APPEAL-In August I went to
II Kentucky and remained a month with
my brother, who took the bilious fever and
treated himself hydrOpathically, and recOv-
cred In few days. On my return / landed
here the day the yellOw-fever broke out, with
my lamily all well except a daughter nine
years old, who took the fever on the river,
and after it became epidemic, our friends got
alarmed and called on a doctor for medicine
for her, and the consequence is she is still
sick, though now the scare is over she is i'm
proving under the water treatment. Ny wife
took the fever and treated her hydrOpathic-
ally, and she soon recovered.
L took the fever and did not get il broke for
sixty-four hours, but by the application OF the
water treatment soon recovered, after it was
once checked; and whilst stood in my store
door, and the tears run down my cheeks at
the sights was compelled to view, was not
one particle afraid, for l knew the water
would cure.
ONE WORD TO THE HOWARDS.
God bless them, and for their courage and
perseverance during the epidemic, wish we
could raise shaft 10 their men ory 50 high
that the light reflected from its snOW-capped
pinnacle would knock the stars from the
armament and form another constellation
the Howards.
