A Touching Case.
THE LIFE OF BEAUTIFUL WOMAN sAvEI

THE LIFE OF BEAUTIFUL WOMAN SAVED.
young and beautiful married lady residing
in this city was lying at the point of death,
with diphtheria, and was not expected to live
but a few moments; the husband, father and
mother of the stuff ering lady, were by the bed
side, as was also the attending physician; so
certain were they of the near approach Of
death, that certain arrangements had already
been made to meet the sad event. The father
and mother were state of Maine people, and
had known from childhood of the wonderful
curative power of Johnsons Anodyne Lini-
ment. At the suggestion of the grief stricken
mother the father had gone to the nearest
drugstore, before daylight, and obtained a
bottle, and when the physician arrived and
stated that the loved one could not possibly
live but few moments, the mother tfnidly
told the doctor that she had great faith in
Johnson's Anodyne Lniment, and asked II she
might give her daughter some. The doctor
replied, Certainly, If you wish it can do no
harm"
While this conversation was taking place the
young wife was gasping for breath, and 1t was
evident that she could live but a few moments
longer But the mother quickly uncorked the
bottle and gave teaspoonful clear to her
child. The effect was like magic; in an instant
the passage to the lungs was enlarged, she
could breathe a little easier the mother quickly
began to battle the throat externally, and in a
short time all present saw that the crisis had
passed: In lew hours the palieht was con-
sidered out of danger, and in few days was
well. The husband of this lady related these
facts, with fearful eyes, to Mr.. jennings, OF the
firm Of /. S. johnson & Co., % Custom House
street. He said there could be no question
whatever but what this liniment had saved his
wifes life. All persons who will send theil
