The Utilization of Forces In the Cure
of Malignant Diseases Unknown in
Earlier Times - Astounding Facts,
II True.
On the 18th day of December last, says
the Providence News, message flashed
across the wire from Bangor, Me-, to Bos-
ton to a noted medical specialist, saying:
''My little girl is lying in the throes of
death. Oh, save her if you can" As quick
as thought his answer flashed back toBan-
gor: 81 will save your child-have no
fear" And almost as quick as said the eff
feet was noticed; the dying child from the
unconscious shores of death seemed to
come back to earth, and the closed eyes set
in death opened amid smiles, while the
hitherto speechless tongue, silenced by the
chill of the grave, startled the heart
broken and despaiIing family by saying
distinctly:
"Msmma! mammal"
The hand of death had been mysterious
ly stayed, as by word. The old looked |
at the young and the young up into the |
faces Of the old, and all asked, How was |
your reporter, obedient to instructions, |
visited Bangor to investigate, and from
the lips of the mother who autographed |
the physician in Boston he learned the |
facts as given above. The lady's name is
Mrs. Mary E. Young of 90 Harlow street,
Bangor, and, though she wishes to avoid
all notoriety, she frankly admits the
facts, with the additional statement that
the same doctor had cured a number of
her friends when given up as incurable by
other physicians.
Hon. John D. Hopkins of Ellsworth, Me-,
a man who has filed nearly all the impor-
| tant state Offices up to Governor, when
| asked if he knew this Boston physician, re-
| piled that he was glad to be able to say that
| he did, that he and his wife had been most
successfully treated and cured by him, that
in their old age, through his treatment. they
found themselves young. IT regard this
most brainy, able and brilliant doctor of
this age, If not of any other age. Why, sir,
| my wife and went to see him some months
| ago. When we entered his presence he
told us both our troubles in detail, and
what troubles we had had in life, and what
brought us our difficulties, without asking
us question, better than we could have
told him. 1t is fact, and fact that hun
dreds in this country know, that this man

woman or child, the most hidden and in
tricate diseases, as he would read an open
book. He is a wonder, a marvel, a mys-
terry, and his cures when others fail are as
wonderful as his examinations"
Hon. J. Willard Rice of Boston, brother
of ex- Gov. Rice. was visited by your re-
porter on his return from the Pine Tree
state. "You have been a patient of DR..
Flowers" we queried as we introduced our
selves. "What do you think of him as a
doctor?" A broad smile covered the face
of the fat and genial alderman as he leaned
{ back in his easy chair. 1T think" was his
reply, "that Dr.. R. G. Flower is one of the
most able, learned and skilful physicians
of this age; besides, he is most genial
and fascinating man, and as brilliant as a
star" Henry A. Follett of Woonsooket.

ferer for 10 years with liver disease and
