ROME GA. MAY %. 1889.


Editors Consultation: With the hope
that it will reach the eye of other suffer-
ers, | desire to write you a statement of
my case, and my wonderful rescue from
death from malarial blood poison by the
use of the great S. S. 5. (SwifT's Specific }.
In 1880 / came from the North to take
charge of the Gas Works in Rome, as
Superintendent, and after the overflow
which occurred in the spring following,
was very much exposed to malarial poi
son, and in 1882 found my blood so con-
taminated with the poison that ] was
forced to give up my business, | was
treated by the Rome physicians without
relief, they advising me to go North,
which | did. The doctors North told me
that my only hope was to return to the
milder climate, and accordingly l came
back to Rome, completely broken down
and nearly skeleton. My trouble finally
determined in an abscess of the liver, and
nearly every one (myself included)
thought | was doomed to die within few
days. In this condition | was advised by
a friend to take Switt's Specific, and |
took it Just as drowning man would
catch at straw but as soon as my sys-
tenn got under the influence of the reme-
dy, the abscess came to point and burst,
passing off without pain. In fifteen days
after this l was up at my work, and have
since enjoyed excellent health.
Every sufferer from malarial poison
should take Swift's Specific,

WOMAN.
Hope for Suffering Woman Some
thing New Under the Sun.

By reason of her peculiar relations, and her
peculiar ailments, woman has been compelled
to suffer, not only her own ills, but those arts
ing from the want of knowledge, or of con-
sideration on the part of those with whom she
stands connected in the social organization.
The frequent and distressing irregularities
to degree which no language can express.
In the mansions of the rich and the howell of
the poor alike, woman has been the patient
victim of ills unknown to man, and which
none but she could endure-and without a
remedy. But now the hour of her redemption
has come. She need not suffer longer, when she
can find relief in DR.. j. Bradield's Female

And in silence heaven is calling
One by one our lambs away.

Is sent in plying love
To lift the lingering heart from earth,
