THAT PERPLEXED THE WHOLE
FAcULTY-HOw A WoMAN's LIFE
WAS SAvED-A REMARKABLE
CURE. rr
A talented reporter Of that sprightly
journal, the Pittsburgh Commercial
Gazette, tells in the most highly inter.
esllng manner, terrible story of The
sufferlngs ola gentle little lady named
Mrs. Milo Ingram. nov 43 Fayette ST.,
Allegheny City, Pa. the daughter OF
Captain Hugh McKelyey, OF same
place. 1t was told TO the reporter by
Mrs. Iogram herself. and the news
gatherersays it would have been 100
much TO believe only the evidence was
close at hand to subs.antiate eyerv
word of what she said.
1T was another instance says the
reporter, of tie culpable ignorance ola
large class Of practitioners OF medicine
who, while they pretend 10 be perfectly
familiar with the minutest details OF The
science. are ost,n brought to bay by
some unusually difficult case, which
they do not understand. The little
lady gave the names OF some OF the
mus, reputable physicians in the two
cities, 10 whom she had paid large
sums of money for treatment, aud all
they had succeeded 10 doing was maxi
ing big tees, while she grew rapidly
worse.
Her troubles began about six years
aso. when she experienced fall while
attempting TO cross sewer drain that
had Jus: been dug. A large swelling
came on ler right side, which rapidly
spread, became very much discolored,
and caused the most intolerable pain.
She sent for the leading physician Oh
Allegheny, who summoned a consul'a'F :
ton of prominent physicians aud SUR
geons, who united in pronouncing TIA
case Of malignant cancer, aud they
told her it was incurable. She next
consulted q we'll known cancer doctor
Of Kittenuiug, under whose treatment
she remained six months. Her case
not manitestng the slightest improve
ment, she experienced the most excrd-
ciaGng torture all the time. Her reIa'
tiyes took her to Rome, New York,
where she remained for two years ua-
der the care OF DR.. Kingsley. de pro-
nouncedIt rose cancer, and although
he failed to cure her, be very much re-
lieyed her suA'erings. He also pro-
nounced her case incurable.
The flesh of her breast was eaten
away down to the ribs, the breast-bone
was laid bare, and the disease made its
wey upward, causing the breastt to be-
come de tached from the wall OF the
chest, hanging loose from above. Aiter
awhile this healed partially, aud the
disease made It's appearance 10 the
limbs. With even ten-fold greater
yi,ulence, not only eating away tne
flesh. but attacking the bones oenea'n'
II affected both limbs, and then proKe
ont on her head and face, affecting ner
eves. making her almost blind, and
cous,no her face to swell out Of all Its
former likeness. Her mind was affected,
and at last her death became only
question of time. A very repulaoie
herb doctor pronounced her at deatnS
door.
AT this juncture, her friends were
told Of the remarkable recoveres enec-
ted by PERUNA. and without any real
hone Of benelitting her, they determined
to see if the wonderful remedy wouio
be of any avail 10 her case. -Four
months after commencing the use Oh
PERUNA she showed remarkable signs
of Improvement, and to-day she IS
perfectly healthy woman. AL Aer
sores are healed.
Some fearful scars remain behind to
tell the terrible story. Her sight Is
completely restored. and more grate>
nl nauent a doctor never had. She
savs she never grows tired sounding
IPERUNA's praises.
Mr.. Ingram says they phad aid oyer
one thousand dollars TO her previous
doctors, without any permanent good,
and her father would gladly have PAID
as much for PERUNA, each containing
half an ounce of sodlde Of Potassium
was the whole cost of her cure. She
took at fret one tablespoonful four
times daily, and gradually increased
The dose uatil she took four tablespoon
fals every two.hOurs. notwithstanding
these large doses, her appetite as once
Improved, aud continued good all tno
time until she was perfectly cured. Sne
gained lorty-fye pounds while unoer
treatment.
There are only two cases on recoru
where il is known to have required hah
as many bottles 10 effect a cure'-
Generally speaking, ordinary chronic
cases require only from SIX 10
thirty bottles. and thousands OF cases
os recent date have recovered perfectly :
on a siugle bottle.'
