From TG96oro S0uthepner. JulV H..
While wishing Tarboro, on July 9Th, /
was requested to visit Miss Mary E siaton,
seven miles from town, Who Cor seven
weeks had been suffering excruciating
agony from some blood bosom, supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at Ter
request, I went to see her, and expected to
see great suffering, but was net prepared
for the scene that net me. [ found the
patient broken out all V With an erup-
ton which had cc~casicned such intense
itching that during the paroxysms she was
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn herself to pieces until her agony
was INDISPENSABLE. During these par
oxysms she would have to be held, anc
her screams could be heard a long distance.
She would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole body was purple and
raw, exuded a y How water which satu-
rated the bed through several tn OK quilts
that day she had possessed herself of a
thick gutta- percha coorse comb, and before
she could be prevented, had raked herself
with it with such force as to bread out
ONE of the teeth, thus dGing to her agony.
She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro and her neightorhood could
afford, but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
ind no permanent benefit, as the par
oxysms continued to return with ~increas-
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
of the patient I called the family togeth.r
and told them to bear witness that PROM
IsED NOTHING. could net tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as | had
never even imagined such suffering, but ii
could do no harm and might do good.
then gave her a large dose Of the Bitters
and as soon as the paroxysm YVES over,
sponged her Whole BODY with the Wash
While doing SO she would call cut, ooh
that does feel SO good" I then gave hel
another dose of the Bitters, and she was
soon in a sweet slee,,. | continued this
' treatment, and whenever the itching would
} recur [ would sponge the body instantly
with the Wash, which in every instance
allayed in the irritation or itching anG
warde off those violent paToxsyms. Sht
did not lave an attack during the day
and by 4 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon
the disease was under perfect control. Th'
itching would recur, tut every time wa
allayed by the application of tie Wash.
. left her Wednesday easy and comfortable
with directions forthe treatment to I e con
5 tinued during the night and as long q
was necessary. l came again to see he
to-dty, Saturday, the 18th, and found he
: up ami dressed and in the regular prose
cution OF her households duties. She is en-
tireiy T Ii We ,alth ugh she vii of course
have to take the Bitters some time to con
V pietely eradicate the POISON from he
i. blood. During Wednesday she frequent
" call for the Bit IS. as she crayed its sootl
le ing and q%u;tt:n. effects, and during the da
1 administered q whole bottle, with th
above results, thus proving, what hav
always claimed that my Remedy in a
infa.lible antidute for all blood -, urity.
