RETINITlS.
1t is Successfully Treated by DR.. A. H' Ed

Made Happy.
Paducah Daily News.l

Paducah Daily News
New diseases and new forms of those
already known to the medical world are
daily being brought to the notice, and
are puzzling the medical skill of our
physicians. A case has been brought to
our notice recently which is attracting
the attention of the physicians of the en-
tire country Oh account of the peculiar
and characteristic form Of Nephritic
Retinitis, assumed in this instance.
The eye is the most delicate part of
the body and when it becomes diseased
the physician must necessarily know
what he is doing before he begins treat
ment, if he expects to save the sight,
and especially is this true in case where
entirely new and peculiar forms of the
disease appear, and it must be specially
gratifying to the physician who success
fully treats the first case of the kind
known to medical science. In such a
position stands DR.. A. H. Edwards, of
this city, with reference to the case in
question. DIR. Edwards is a specialist
on eye, ear, nose, and throat, formerly
of Nashville, Tenn; was demonstration
of anatomy in the medical department
of the University of Tennessee, and the
surgeon-general on Governor Buchan'
ans staff. His successful treatment OF
this case adds new laurels to his medical
reputation, as the medical journals Of
the country will publish full account
of the case and his treatment.
A reporter called upon DR.. Edwards
for short history of this case and gath
cred the following from him as being thu
facts regarding it,
"Mr. Arnold, from near Shelbyville
Ill, consulted me four weeks ago in re
gard to the eyesight of his eye, Stain!
it had been failing him for some time
and that the first time he noticed it wa
one day when he was trying to shoot
squirrel, and when the left eye was close,
he could not see any of the'sights' on th
gun with the right eye, and it was NOR
than six weeks after that that he con
suited me, and when he related the his
