How a Dying Child
 Was Saved

CICERO, HAMILTON Co.,, IHD., Sept, 19, 1SS7.- The following is a true account of what your 6. s. s. has dono for our little daughter, Hazel, now four years old. When 12 months old . lump appeared on her heel, which slowly grew larger. The family physician thought it was caused by piece of broken glass or needle, but failed to bring anything to light The child became feebleB all the time. seeming to lose the use of her leg and finally quit walk ing entirely. The middle finger and thumb of either hand became enlarged, the flesh be- coming hard. Tho hip joints became lnvoIv- cd, SO that when seventeen months old she could not stand, having lost the use of leg and arm. Partial curvature of the spine also followed. The nervous system was wrecked, muscles contracted, and there was general wasting of flesh and muscle. At eighteen months of age she was placed under the treatment of prominent physician of Bos- ton, Mass, but ct the end of ten months she had declined to such degree that she was in a dying condition This was in April 1s66. We took tho child away not knowing what to do. In this dreadful dilemma we were over-persuaded by friends to try one bot tie" of SwIET's SPECIFIC, which we did. and before it had all been taken we saw a change for the better in hcr symptoms. We kept 1t up, and havc dore so to this day, and will keep 1t up, if the Lord wills. for many days to como, for it has brought our dying Hazel to life, to yigor. to strength and health again. The ashen hue of her cheeks has changed to rosy tint. She ts able to walk anywhere, Der languor and melancholy have passed away, and she Is now blithe, cheerful, hap py romping child. Should you wish to in- crease your testimonials of proof of tho virtue of S. g. S., our names and what we have said is but-a portion of what we owe to you. should you wish to use them.
