it must be cut out again. Drs. Gordon,
and Pendleton and Prof. Weeks performed
the operation the third time ut the Maine
General Hospital. stayed there month

fourth operation the Arst OF August. This
time the board of physicians at the Maine
General Hospital pronounced it incurabls.
They said there was no hope for me, that
an operation would only shorten my days

to consult DR.. Orrin Fitzgerald of the
Medical Home, Allston, Mass. l learned
from a member of the board of physicians
of the Hospital in Boston that could not
gain admittance there for some time, if at
all, as they had refused me at the Maine
General Hospital.
What should do? Life was becoming
a burden. 1 would pay due respect to the

help me but failed. At last l consulted
DIR. Orrin Fitzgerald formerly of Maine.

After examining my case and learning the
decision of the above, he said he would
not decide then, but the following day he
would look it over carefully,l which he did
and then began his treatment.
He gave me singular tasting medicine
and made an application to the cancer for
ten days which entirely separated it from
the flesh and left the leg in perfectly
healthy condition. After enduring what
had, this process and result was marvellous
