A Wonderful Cure.

She came from Detroit, Mich, and her
great pride was being an invalid. She lost
no opportunity 10 stating that she came TO
Minnesota TO recuperate. She did not hes
itate to enter into a conversation with any
person she came in contact with, giving
advice, Chronological or physiological to
invalids, and seeking the same from those
of robust constitution. Her conversation
was always prefaced with the Introductory
inquiry, so common 10 visitors, "Did you
come here for your healthH" She thus ad-
dressed stalwart, ruddy-visaged young
man at the dinner-table of the Metropolitan
few days since, and the following con-
versation ensued:
Eyes, madam, came here probably the
weakest person you ever saw. I had no
use of my limbs, in fact my bones were
but little tougher than cartilages. I had
no intelligent control of single muscle,
nor the use Of a single faculty."
"Great Heavens" exclaimed the aston
ished auditor, "and you lived p
"I did, Miss, although was devoid of
sight, was absolutely toothless, unable to
articulate single word, and dependent up
on others for everything, being completely
deprived of all power to help myself 1
commenced 10 gain Immediately upon my
arrival, and have scarcely experienced
sick day since, hence / can conscientious
ly recommend the climate"
"a wonderful casep' said the lady, "but
do you think your lungs were affectedH"
"They were probably sound, but pos
sessed of SO little vitality that but for the
most careful nursing they must have ceased
their functions" :
"I hope you found kind friends, sir?"
"Indeed did, madam II is to them and
the pure air of Minnesota that owe my
life. My fathers family were with me,
but unfortunately my mother was pros
trated with severe illness during the time
of my greatest prostration."
"How sad! Pray, what was your diet
and treatmentH" ...
"My diet was the simplest possible, con-
sisting only of milk, that being The only
food my system would bear. AS for treat
ment, depended entirely upon the life
giving properties of Minnesota air, and
took no medicine except an occasional
light narcotic when very restless. My inn
provement dated from arrival. My limbs
soon became strong, ny sight and voice
came TO me slowly, and a full set of teeth,
regular and firm, appeared"
"Remarkable, miraculousI Surely, sir,
you must have been greatly reduced in
flesh2"
"Madam, weighed but nine pounds. l
was born in Minnesota. Good day."
