"Very seldom do we read Of an actual
case of recovery, where hope had alto
gether been lost, to parallel that winch
was Monday investigated by Dispatch
reporter, who had heard in various quar-
tcrs persons talking to their friends OF a
cure, seemingly little short of marvellous,
that had been performed. The plain facts
in the case referred to, without cXaggera-
ton, are these, rs they were learned from
the mother Of the young man, his pastor
and other persons well known in the COM
munity:
"William Lincoln Curtis is the name
of the young man III question. He Is now
employed at II. X. Porter & Co.'s loco
motive works in Pittsburgh, Pa. A year
ago he resided with his mother on Grant
street About that time he went to bed
one evening with violent pain III his
shoulder, the result, he thought, of n cold.
The next morning the shoulder was
greatly swollen, the pain was intense, and
aches were felt all through his system.
His case was speedily developed into n
violent form of chronic rhcumatism,
among the first notable features OF which
was the paralysis of his left arm.
ale gradually grew worse, and in few
months the elbow and knee joints and
both ankles became enormously enlarged
In March last the check bones began to
enlarge, and upon his left side particu-
larly, spreading his face out of oil resem-
blance to his former self. The pain in all
his joints became intense fever, with its
deteriorating effects, was now added, and
he became rapidly reduced To the semblanc, of
n skeleton, while vitality reached its lowest
possible condition, and his suilcrings were OF
such an indscyihablc character that those who
most loved him sometimes thought it would be
better if he was called away. At this time
physicians well known in Pittsburgh informed
hls parents thst they could give no hopes OF
recovery
"The young man finally commenced taking
that wonderful medicine, PERuNA. In two
weeks quite n change for the better, was per-
ceptible. In six weeks all the enlargement had
been reduced completely, while in spirits and
strength the patient was quite aSwcil rs he had
ever been in his life. Nearly three weeks ago
he resumed work rs machinis ut his old place,
able to perform rs much labor rs ever IN his llc:
"The mother of Willie Curtis, in stating all
these facts, said Indeed, can not look upon
the cure much less than as miracle. do not
hesitate in sounding the praise OF PERuNA, and
in recommending il TO all my friends"
The pastor ol the church where the young
man attended Sabbath school WAS visited, and
he readily confirmed the facts of the deformed
bones, the emaciated condition from disease,
and of the doctors having given him up. lie
was greatly surprised at his improved condition:
Slid he, "lt he had not spoken, would not
have known him."
