CANCER OF THE WOMB.

Ny mother, Mrs. Feathers has had a
cancer of the womb for many months. Last
winter the doctor told US it was a cancer,
and could not be cured. Five different
physicians in private practice have said
the same thing. We took her to the
woman's hospital Of this city, and there
they repeated the same story. DIR. Emmett
told us it was cancer, and she must die.
We then took her to the New York Col
lege Hospital, and they told us the same
thing there-that she had cancer and
could live but very short time. She was
then carried to my house, where she
awaited patiently the coming of death as
her only relief We saw the advertise
ment of the Swift Specific Co. and as a
drowning man grasps at a straw" we
went to the office of the company, and the
physician told me to try it-that it could
do her no possible harm, and that it would
cure her. She had lost great deal of flesh
and strength, and ii seemed folly to give her
medicine after what we had been told.
However, We commenced the s. s. s. and
kept ii up month before we began to see
any improvement. From that time on her
general health improved, and she was soon
raised from bed. The discharge increased
50 much that it frightened us, but we kept
on, and the cancer came away in great
sloughs and Jumps. For two months now
there has been no hemorrhage, no sign of
a discharge. Thank God, my mother is
well.

temporary relief only. For two years

October, when in desperation, but having
very little faith in il, | commenced using

Der OF bottles, | felt that nay digestion and
general health was improved, but so far as

lous tendency from my youth, the small
particles of copper and brass would get into

taken two dozen bottles. The first effect of

surface, and | broke out all over in run

my skin cleared of. Ny knees, which had

sumed their usual size and are supple as of

A TOTAL WRECK.

In 1861 contracted blood poison. Since
that time have suffered tortures from an
affection of the skim rheumatism and Ill
cerating sores. During those long years of
disease | underwent treatment at the hands
of leading physicians in Norwich, Hart
ford, Providence, Boston and Chicago
Failing to get relief at one place, went TO
another, but met with the same treatment
and effect everywhere The quantities of
mercury and potash | have taken have not
only done me no good, but | believe it has
done much harm. l have taken S. S. S.
six weeks and il is hard to believe my own
feelings, though the fact that it has done
more for me in that short time than all
other medicines have in twenty wears is
plain and undeniable Six weeks ago
was total wreck, without hope. Now that
have taken fourteen bottles of S. S. S. my
rheumatism is among the things of the
past, and the scars only show that | was
diseased. When | began taking Swifts
Specific there was large eating ulcer over
my right eye, which alarmed me greatly,
and no one who saw it thought / ever
would get well. Like the other. it is gone,
and thank God for the creation OF the
Swift Specific Co. and their great remedy.

SCR0FULA.
a LITTLE GIRLS ArFLIcr1oN.

Miss Jessie Wagner is the daughter of D.

Miss. He writes from his home under
date of October 10, 1885, and says
Our little girl. Jessie, was taken with
scrofula about six years ago. She was then
only years old. We tried all the best
physicians in our town, as well as those at
Hot Springs and Eureka Springs, Arkan-
sas in Philadelphia and New York CITY.
besides the virtues Of numerous other
springs which we visited, and did for her
all that affection and money could do for
about four years, and with all this we
barely managed to keep her alive. She was
the most afflicted child | ever saw. She
had assesses on all Of her JOINTS and on
her neck, and small pieces of bone worked
from them for more than two wears, and
her elbow and hip joints stiffened. After
trying, as we thought, almost everything.
and apparently without any permanent eff
feet, in our despair concluded to try Swift's
Specific. Strange to say, before she had
finished the first bottle we saw a change
for the better. Her appetite began to i'm
prove, and her eyes to brighten. Soon she
ceased 10 complain of the distressing pains
which had made her life miserable Tor the
previous years. In ten months after she
began to take S. s s. all the assesses had
healed up, and she now had grown much
taller and improved in weight twenty per
cent. Now, with the exception Of a stiff
elbow and hip, she is as well az anyone.
No one who knew her condition tour years
ago thought she would ever get over it. We
attribute her recovery to Swif's Specific
entirely. / have seen it tried with several
others here, and always with good results
