If were to give their statements at
length volume would be required to
contain them. therefore only give
undoubled facts.
To begin with the head, ! may say
that all cases of erysipelas, whether on
the head or face, or any other part of
the body, are cured. In some cases
where the head was swollen to almost
double its usual size, and the patient
was supposed by the attending physi-
clan about to die, an application of
tobacco effected a complete cure.
Again, all cases of sore eyes, whether
caused by injury or of disease, and
whether old cases or fresh ones, have
been cured. In some cases where there
was total blindness cure was at once
effected and the sight restored per-
fectly.
In the third place, all wounds,
whether cuts, bruises, or Commissions
have been easily cured. Sprains of
the knee or ankle joints, where they
wepe swelled to double the natural
size, have been completely cured by a
single nights application. Old cases
where the patient had suffered for
months and years have been cured.
In all cases where the remedy was
tried, bunions and corns on the feet
have been cured, even where in some
cases they were said to be forty years
old.
All cases of sore thoat are cured,
whether caused by diptheria, Group,
scarlet fever or quinsy. In more than
one instance the patient was cured
when seemingly at the point Of death
and the case pronounced hopeless by
the attending physicians.
All bone felons have been cured
usually by single nights application
of the tobacco.
| have been informed of a number
of cases in which the tobacco was APP
piled as a remedy for hemorrhoids, and
in every instance single nights appli
cation is represented to have effected 6
cure. If tobacco should be applied
to wound neither modification non
lockjaw would ever supervene. Ii
one case of lock jaw where the surgeon
had pronounced the case hopeless, ac'
cording to the published statement o
a gentleman, a cure was effected by
the application of tobacco poultice tt
the stomach.
For cholera mOrbus, an application
of tobacco to the stomach gives relief
A-Senator told me that when suffering
from constipation most terribly he haC
two physicians with him for four day
and nights, with no advantage from
their remedies, and when the pain be
came so intolerable that he felt tina
he would not get through the night
remembering what / had told hin
about tobacco, he caused it to be aI
piled to his side and back, and in hal
an hour he was relieved and immedi
2 ately recovered.
5 Again, in great many cases G
t neuralgia, whether the case was &C
E companied with inflammation Or not
, have been cured by tobacco. In on
4 case the patient said his eye was
4 much infamed that it seemed about
r burst, and the application effected
S complete cure.
Physicians here tell me all cases {
t orchltis, are cured by tobacco and usl
ally in one night.
