Continued Success of DR.. J. A. Jones'
His Patients Number Hundreds
He Cannot Get Away.

He Cannot Get Away.
One of the editors of this paper, who
accompanied his friend Oh a professional
call UPON the doctor, several days since,
found his rooms thronged with patients,
and was forced to wait two hours before
admiltance could be had. These atflict-
ed visitors wend their way hither from
distance of hundreds Of miles, in this
and surrounding States. They include
numbers of the most respectable and
wealthy of our people. Among them
may be found physicians, lawyers. mer-
chants, planters, mechanics, ministers,
and persons from every grade and sta
ton in society. Thus far all are unani-
nous in ascribing to the doctor great
professional skill, and express the high
est satisfaction with the result of his
mode of his treatment. Some cures,
indeed have been most remarkable, and
are attested by the evidence of the par
ties themselves.
On Friday, DR.. Jones performed five
difficult and delicate surgical operati0nss
besides prescribing for large number
of patients. Two of these upon whom
he had operated called at this office and
Mr.. w. G. Wilder, who resides near
Knoxville, in Crawford County, stated
that he has been almost totally blind
which had spread over his eyes, accom-
panied by great weakness, heat and
constant weeping. He had consulted
many physicians and tried their reme--
dies without avail, and when induced
to visit DR.. Jones, three weeks since,
considered his case hopeless. The doc
tor removed the film by shillful opera
ton, and treated him internally and ex-
tcrnally, also with such effect that now
his vision is restored, and he had every
reason to believe the cure permanent.
The other, Mr.. III. L. Porter, ofGrlfin
q young man about twenty-thrce years
of age, received accidently during the
war bayonet prick near the corner OF
one eye, which damaged that organ Sc
riously, left it crossed over, almost un-
der the nose. In five minutes, the doc
tor removed thediliiculty, in the pres
ence of friend who also accompanied
him, and when we saw, the ball was
perfectly straight, and moved about as
naturally as the othar A blood-shot
appearance in the corner next the nose
operation had been performed.
Dr.. b. Burgc; also of Geneva, Ga,
who has for many years been sufferer
from the most distressing form of asth-
ma, was induced to try the doctors won
derful inhaling apparatus and mode Of
treatment, and is loud in his praises of
the man who had afforded him such
inexpressibe relief.
On Friday, Mrs. Judge Speer, of Grif--
fin, had surgical operations performed
upon son and daughter, for deformity,
with such success that she was most
profound in her expressions of gratitude
and went away determined to do all in
her power TO induce her afflicted friends
to consult DR.. Jones.
Mr.. J. II. Kirkpatrick, of Opelika,
Alabama, writes as follows; II am
proud to say that I have never regretted
the fee paid you for prescribing for my
lungs. I have been a new man ever
since, and have not had to lose day
from my business since you were here"
He then add: II am out of medicine,
and don't know that will ever need it,
but still prefer to have it in readiness.
Send the same. am requested to ask
if there will be any chance for you to

parties"
Again, from Lexington, Ga, Mrs. S.
e. Lumpkin, who is widely known, in
a letter dated February 10, 1878, says,
II write to. tell you of the progress your
prescription is making which was given
to my niece. She seems to be getting
on finely, and says her head feels clearer
and better than she ever remembered to
have known il. The disagreeable smell
had entirely left her nose, which, OF
course, is II great comfort. follow your
directions perfectly, and all our hearts
are full OF hope. Her father seems
more than delighted with your treat
ment."
And so we might go on multiplying
case after case, in addition to those al
ready previously published. all establish
ing, beyond contradiction, Dr. Jones
skill, and the astonishing success which
has attended his practice here and else
where. But enough has been said and
written.
The above editorial we take from the
Macon 7cicyruph and .Hcsscngcr. DIR.
Jones has been induced to visit South
Carolina, and is now healing the affiic-
ted the Wheeler House, in the city
of Columbia, where he remains until
the 18th of Marth.
