Water Cure in Sun Stroke.

As there have been many cases OF sun
stroke this summer. I will tell you what
know about one that was cured with
water. A man was prostrated in q fisld
The men crrried him 10 shade tree, and
one of them came running and said :
"Come quick, the man is dylug." As
we could not get doctor in time TO
save him, got handful of towels and
two buckets OF water and ran to him. /
wet the towels and laid one on his head
one on bis breast, one on each wrist aud
one on each ankle. Then we poured
fresh water on the towels continually
three quarters Of an hour, and he then
began to breathe freely. then told the
men to rub him until his skin was red,
and thst would keep bin from taking q
chill. They did so. and in an hour and
a half be was able to ride home in q
wagon. The man is a G.rman, and his
fliend told him what VIC had done for
him. He said to me, You have saved

Neuralgia Of the Face:

Capt. John Orr, Pearlington, Miss, has
been most intense sufferer from facial
neuralgia for over twenty years. Helfas
had seventeen operations performed on
the nerves-that is, had them divided, cut
off close to the bone from which they
emerge But this never did him any good;
the most excruciating pain continued
without the least interruption. He often
wished for death to relieve him of the in-
tolerable pain. The best physicians failed
to relieve him. They finally advised him
to consult Drs. Hartman & Miller, at the
St. Charles Hotel, New Orleans, which
he did. They prescribed PERUNA, and
in less than month was entirely relieved
Of the pain. Before consulting these doc
tors tlie least touch to any part Of his face
or nose would cause the most fearful pain,
while now he can blow his nose and wipe
his face without the least fear of pain.
The captain is grateful beyond measure
for this unexpected and unhoped for result.
Mrs. Elizabeth Kenner,o8 Laurel street,
New Orleans, has been one of the great
est sufferers from Neuralgia of the face
during the past year that we have ever
heard Of From morning to night, and
from night to morning, there was one
constant, racking, tearing, burning pain,
extending clear around her head and deep
down through every muscle, tooth and
bone in her face. No rest and no sleep.
All physicians failed to relieve her, a.
we'll as all remedies. She was constantly
in the most agonizing despair. She called
on DR.. Hartman, who said the cause was
chronic catarrh. He prescribed PKRUNA
for her and now every pain has left her.
She feels like another person and can eat
heartily and sleep soundly.
