and most wonderful is that of Miss Ella
Buchanan of Belleyille, Ind. For fourteen
years she had been an invalid, and for ten
years had not been able 10 have a shoe put on
her foot; neither stand nor walk step. Mr..
Buchanan, the photographer OF this city, a
brother OF the lady, says that her trouble was a
species of tumor as well as the paralysis, as he
believed though some physicians called it one
thing and some another. Her whole lower ex-
tremities were rendered useless and she was as
helpless as a baby. She spent fortune in
doetoring and medicine bills, but she obtained
no relief until we were induced to call on DR..
Jordan of indianapolis, Ind.,. No. 115z W.

gan to improve at once, and in few weeks
was almost cured. Now she is a well woman,
and has been nearly two years DR.. Jordan is
