Is to many, the most beautiful season OF the

shape of eruptions, blotches, ulcers, itchings,

out all this poison. 1t is natures remedy,
prepared from the roots of the forests, and
nothing in its composition comes from the

Rev. Mr.. Pierson and wife, who have been
holding meetings in this city have been the
means of remarkable case of faith cure in
the town of Litchfeld that has created a
grea. sensation in religious circles where the
facts are known. Not long since lady in
the above town who had suffering with a
cancerous tumor, was visited BY Mr.. and
Mrs. Pierson, and advised to leave off the
use of opiates that she had been using to alisy
pain. and trust in God for help. This she
did, though urged by her husband in her
paroxysims of pain to resort to them. But
this she refused to do, and soon fell into a
natural sleep, and commenced Immediately
to recover. 1t is also reported on the best Of
authority that a neighbor having several
dumb children seeing the wonderful triumph
of faith resolved to seek help in God for his
children. He is now rejoicing in hearing his
children speak. The above, though some
what singular. comes from reliable source.
