ScrofuIa In Children.

The following is taken from letter
written under date of July !, 1850, by
Mrs. Ruth Berkly, most charitable and
Christian lady, of Salina, Kan; In the
early part of 1857 scrofuls appeared on the
head of nv little grandchild, then only
eighteen.monthso old. Shortly after break
ing out II spread rapidly all over her body
The scsbs on the sores would peal OF on
the slightest touch and the odor that
would arise would make the atmosphere
of the room sickening and unbearshle.
The disease next attacked the eyes and We
feared she would lose her sight Emil
ueut physicians from the surrounding
country were consulted. but could do
nothing to relieve the little innocent, and
gave it as their opinion, that the case
was hopeless and impossible to save the
child. eyesight.' 1t was then that We de-
cided to try Swift's Specific S. $, 5.
That medicine at once made speedy and
complete cure. For more than a year
past she has been as healthy as any child
