accidentally thrown with Mr.. j. A. May, an
employee of Sehoheld's extensive iron
works, who startled your reporter by re-
marking to him; 81 feel kindly towards

mashed my thumb with a hammer, and you
can see 1t Is healing up fast. If either of

that my experience proves beyond the
shadow OF doubt that Swift's Specific
will cure the worst cases of Blood Poison,
even when it descends as an Inheritance !;
that 1t will cure Mercurial Rheumatism,
and drive the mercury out of the bones,
joints and systems; and that 1t will build
up the general health, and is the best med

failed in a single instance"
Mr.. May will take pleasure in answering
any letters In regard to his case.
