Mr.. Z. @. Hawes, Jr., lives at Clarksville,
Ca, and teaches village school. Learn
ing that he had been victim 10 Scrotula,
and had been cured Of it, sought him out
and induced him to give me a history of the
| case for publication. After some hesitation
Mr.. Halves said that while he was averse to
going in print, yet he regarded IT. as his duty
t. suffering humanity to give the particulars
OF his case, that Others might have the ben
etit OF his treatment and cure.
HISTORY OF THE CASE.
He said; "Scrofrla Is hereditary In nv
family, all Of the members being afflicted
with it-some slightly; but mine was of the
worst type, and was regarded by all of the
medical men as incurable. / was treated by
many physicians, and went through the
whole catalogue of medicines; In fact the
only object had in life was to get rid of
this terrible disease, which was gradually
but surely eating my life away. My scalp
wi 80 sore that there have been months
that could not touch IL with comb. My
| face was 80 covered with sores that had to
shun contact with my fellow-man, and felt
q delicacy in going to general table of
even a country hotel For years have bee n
In constant pain, and lost flesh until was

HIS FATHER PHYSICIAN.
my father being a practicing physician,
and having read medicine myself, / was OF
course prejudiced against all proprietary
remedies; but having had .Swift's Specific
recommended to me by many persons, and
learning that fair-mined doctors were now
prescribing it for blood and skin diseases,
determined to give 1t a fair trial. FoD the
first few days, the remedy made the symp-
toms seemingly worse, but knew 1t was
forcing the poison out, and l felt better. In
three weeks the sores all begun to heal; my
hair commenced to grow out again; / com
menced gaining flesh; my nervous system
greatly improved; my sluggish blood quick
ened Its course, and felt that was new
man. Since then have continued to inn
prove rapidly In every respect. The scars
have left my face; the aching of my bones
and joints are q thing of the past, and there
is not a trace OF the disease left; and from
being skeptic, am now the warmest ad-
vocate of Swift's Specific. / do not believe
there is a man, woman or child in the
world, no matter what their condition, or
bow free from disease, that will not be bene-
fitted by taking Swift's specific. 1t is with
out doubt the best remedy for all skin and
blood diseases; as a health tonic it is incom-
parably the best; as q nerve food 1t is supe-
rior to everything.
4 10 not even know any one OF the Swift
Specific Company, but would be recreant
to my duty to my fellow-meu If did not
give the world my experience and rescue
from suffering and death. will take pleas
ure in answering any inquiries from other
sufferers. can say also that Swift's Specific
| is certain cure for Camp Itch, ,as one young
man here was cured sound and well by one
bottle. / refer with confidence to any man
of respectability around Clarksville. as all
were familiar with my hopeless condition
and with my miraculous cure by the use of
Swift's Specific"
In mingling with the citizens, / found
that they endorsed everything which Mr..
Hawes has said. Surely, this case should
attract attention all over the world.
