FACTS ART STUBBORN THINGS.
From Tar5oro Southerner, July III

While visiting Tarboro, on July 9Th, I
was requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
seven miles from town, who for seven
weeks had been suffering excruciating
agony from some blood poison, supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at her
request, [ went to see her. and expected to
see great suffering, but was not prepared
for the scene that met NE. I found the
patient broken out all over with an erup-
lion which had c~ccasioned such intense
itching IT, at during the paroxysms she was
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn herself to pieces until her agony
was indescrib bic. During these par
oxysms she would haze to be held, and
her screams could be heard a l. .ng distance.
She would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole b dy was purple and
raw, exuded a y low water which satu-
rated the bed through several til OK quilts
that day she had possessed herself of a
thick gutta-percha coarse comb, and before
she could be prevented, had raked herself
with it with such force as to bread out
ONE Of the teeth, thus dding to her gony.
She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro AMI her neightcrhoud could
afford. but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
md no permanent benefit, as tie par
oxysins continued to ret IN with increas-
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
of the patient l ca led the f mily tngeth I
md told them to bear witness that | PROM
IsED NOTHING. Icould not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as had
never even imagined such suffering, but it
could do no harm and might d, good. l
then gave her a large dose of the Bitters
and as sonn as the paIoxysm WIS over, l
spOnEed her whole bod with the Wash.
While doing SO she wru d call cut, "Oh,
that docs feel 50 good" I then gave her
another dose of the Bitters, and she was
soon in a sweet sleep. | continued this
treatment, and whenever the itching would
retur I would sponge tle body instantly
with the Wash, which in every instance
allaycd in the irritation or i ching and
wardei off those violent paTox:yms. She
did not nave AL attack during the day,

the d sease was under perfect control. Thc

aliayed by the application Of tie Wash. /
