Rev. Charles E. Wright, pastor OF
the Second Baptist church of this
city, states that his 15-year-old son,
who for the past six years has been
sorely afflicted with epilepsy, having
as many as a dozen convulsions a
day, has entirely recovered his health,
has gained fifteen pounds in flesh ;
this wonderful cure was made by the
use of Kings Royal Germateur,
when physicians and other remedies
failed. Rev. Mr.. Wright further
states that he gives the above infor-
