An Epidemic of Bloody Flax in scioto
County, Ohio.

In the summer of 1888. bloody hux was
epidemic in Scioto county, Ohio. Whole
families died from it. In August, 1SS9, 1T
broke out again and caused some 10 or 10
deaths, but new remedy was then intro
duced, hitherto unknown in that county,
which effectually checked its ravages. The
following letters explain the nature of the
disease and give the only successful treat
ment:
OTwAY, Scioto County Ohio. Sept. "a 1889.
& Co., Des Moines, Iowa.
GENTLEMEN-I tried Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy on
my son in a very bad case of bloody fux,
during the epidemic of that disease in this
county, in the summer of 1885, and it per-
bad for about a week, having from six to ten
operations of the bowels hourly. Alter
taking the first dose of this medicine he did
not have an operation for about four hours,
and after taking it few days was well. 1t
was a surprising cure. Since then it has
cured my wife and my little girl; also Annie
Kennedy, S. Riley. G. w. Riley, Chas.
Tumb bleson, Jr., and others. L think it is
the best medicine for bloody fux on record,
and had it been here year ago thousand
bottles could have been sold and many lives
saved. MADISON MUSTARD.
MORE ExPLICIT.-Had I known that
you desired to publish nv letter of the oath
inst. as testimonial to the virtues of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea REM
edy I would have been more explicit 1
was the first person in this vicinity to try
the Remedy. My son had been very bad
with bloody flux for about one week and
was getting worse very fast. All of the
remedies for hux that l knew ANYTHING
about had been tried on him and failed to
benefit him. I was Just starting for the best
known fux doctor at Rarden, when I heard
of this medicine. 1 got bottle and tried
it rs I wrote you. My son was in very
precarious condition, having very high
fever and an awful soreness OF the abdomen,
and, as I said in my letter of the Oath inst,
from six to ten operations of the bowels
hourly. The first dose gave four hours re-
lief, the second and third about the same.
A fter giving three doses OF the medicine, we
gave a doseof castor oil, as you direct, which
operated IN fifteen minutes. AS soon as the
castor oil operated we gave the Remedy
again. The castor oil operated at just nine
o'clock at night and he went to bed at once
and slept until after daylight the next morn
ing and, you may say, was cured. 1t ap-
peared in all the cases of bloody hux in
which Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Remedy was tried that the
patient found no relief from the awful sore
ness of the bowels until after taking the
castor OIL All that [ have known to use
the Remedy have found about the same
cure that 1 did. There was no failure, as
know of its curing others in the neighbor-
hood. As 1 told you in nv former letter,
he Remedy cured my wife and little girl of
iux. They were Just taking it in very
violent form, but one dose gave relief for
nine hours, and three doses and one dose of
castor oil cured them. It also cured my boy
IF violent pain in the stomach. One dose
did it. Yours truly, Madison Mustard. Of
way, Scioto county, O., Sept. 80, 1889.
A COMPLETE CURE.-About August 15,
1889, during an epidemic of bowel COM
plant in this vicinity, was attacked with
severe cramping pains in the stomach and
bowels, followed by an unnatural discharge
At intervals of about 20 minutes. The stool
consisted of mucus mixed with blood.
After other medicines had failed 1 tried
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea
Remedy, which effected complete cure.
Moses A. Thompson, Henley, Scioto
county. o.
Mr.. Thompson's disease was dysentery in
, severe form. 1t is commonly called
bloody fux when the discharges are bloody.
:. & Co.
CURED BY THREE OosEs.-I take great
pleasure in saying Chamberlain'e Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy is number
me medicine, and I think it will do even
more than is claimed for it. During the
pidemic in this county last August my lit !
lie boy, aged years, was taken with bloody |
lux in severe form. When nv wife COM
1enced giving Cham mberlain's Collie, Cholera |
nd Diarrhea remedy the discharges were |
loody and unnatural After the first dose |
7as given he began to get better and |
be stool became more natural. Three |
oses completely cured him. | cannot speak |
DO highly of the medicine. William Glenn,
,tway, Scioto county. o.
DIARRHEA CURED BY Two DosEs.-I |
sed Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and |
)iarrhea Remedy for bad attack of diar- |
hea last summer and was completely cured |
v two doses. 1 do not know of a single in /
lance where this Remedy was used during |
he epidem;c OF hux and dlarrhea in this |
lace last summer but what it gave perfect |
atisfaction. In many instances other medi-
ines had tailed to do any good when they
egan to use this Remedy. 1t is certainly |
sure cure for diarrhea and bloody |
ux. J. c. B. Oskin, Otway, Scioto coun-

A SURE CURE FOR DIARRHEA.-Last
unday was suffering with severe attack
diarrhea, which had beer troubling me

THE GREATEST BENEFIT.-Myself, nv
ife and lady living with US used Chamber
inns Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy
II bloody hux during the epidemic of that
isease in this vicinity, and received the
reatest benefit. You may say that after
le first dose was taken they were virtually
lred. Bnt alter taking three doses of the
edicine we each took a dose of castor oil,
nd when that operated 1t relieved the sore
ess of the abdomen and effected complete
lre Mr.. Madison Mustard gave us the
edicine. G. w. Riley, Otway, Scioto
,unty, o.
A GREAT SUCCESS.-Chamber Collie,
holera and Diarrhea Remedy has proved
great success here. The disease is dysen-
ry. They are first taken with severe pains
i'd running off of the bowels, then bloody
scharges; in some cases great excess of
ood, but no vomiting. 1 know of from 10
15 deaths this summer, but not SO many
lis year as last. G. II. Davis, Postmaster,
