Cancer of the Nose.

my father had cancer and my bus
band died of cancer. In 1875 = lump
appeared on my nose, aud from it's
appearance and rapid growth, 1 be-
came alarmed with the idea that /,
too, had cancer. I consulted my
physician about 1t, and he gave me
an ointment to put on 1t; when this
did not relieve me, he then burnt IL
out, but the place would not heal.
II gradually grew longer and worse,
and 1 had fully made my mind up
that must also die of cancer. Friends
prevailed on ne TO try Swift's Speoi-
fic Is. s. 81 This 1 finally consented
to do. After taking few bottles I
was entirely cured. Swift's Specific

Protestant Clergsmen's Lives Attempted.
Death of Minister'S wife.
ST. JoHE, N. b., Oct 5.--This city has been
horror stricken over an attempt TO poison
the families Of three Protestant clergymen,
and which in the case Of one lady was sue
cessful. On Wednesday the wife Of Rev
Donald Macrae died suddenly, having been
poisoned, it is believed, by confectionery
coming in little white box through the
mails, addressed 70 her husband and deliv-
cred by the postman that morning. An
analysis of the candy shows that each piece
contains enough strychnine to kill man.
An autopsy disclosed sufficient strychnine in
the stomach of the deceased to have caused
death.
It has subsequently, become known that
several packages We're delivered at the resi-
dences Of the lsav. J. Desoyres and tho Rev
r. j. Deinstalt The boxes were addressed
ina copper plate hand, which is thought IS
some 10 be d womans. Mr. Desoyres tasted
the confectionery but detecting a bitter TASTE
did not swallow it. The Deinstadt package
was delivered ny little girl, who handed il
TO the clergyman's wife,
Mr.. Dcinstadt suspected that the sender
might be seeking TO dose him with some sick
ening mixture and took the box to a chemist.
The confectionery in al three boxes contains
strychnine. No satisfactory reason for the
attempted assassination can be assigned al
though the city is fun Of rumors. II is un-
derstood that the Protestant clergymcn here
had been warned against packages Of con-
fectionery sent them through the post

that no similar case is on record. Ward was
