ject, Mrs. Edward Myers, of
Rondout. N. Y.

(From the Correspondence OF the Kingston, n.
Y. Freeman.)
The case OF Mrs. Edward Myers, of Rondout,
New York, furnishes an apt illustration OF
woman's power OF endurance. This lady had
been treated for months In the usual way for
Erysipelas OF the hand, without benefit. Not
until her hand bad become mass OF purified
flesh did she turn to DR.. Kennedy, proprietor
of the "Favorlte Remedy for help. He at
once informed he. that it was impossible to
save the bandit must be amputated. She re-
ceived this terrible intelligence quietly, de-
clined to take ether, stipulating merely to hold
her husbands hand during the operation, and
underwent the painful process without moving
muscle or uttering q groan. DR.. Kennedy
then gave "Favorite Remedy" freely to cleanse
the blood and prevent the return of the DIS
ease, and Mrs. Myers now lives and rejoice in
her great deliverence.
