FACTS ARR STUBBORN THINGS. |
From Tar6oro SoutAe ner. July IT.
While visi ring Tarboro, on July 9th, 1
was requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
seven miles from t wn, who for seven
weeks had been suffering excruc:ating
agony from some blood pc son, S Supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday. at her
request, | went to see her, and expected to
see great sufferiag, but was n t prepared
for the scene that met me found the
patient bro en- out Al ov + with an crup
ton which had tccasicned such intense
itching tt at during the paroxy>ms she was
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn h. rsclf 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 long distance.
She would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole b dy 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 coarse comb, and before
she could be r~revente |, had raked herself
with it with such force as to bresd out
some of the teeth, thus dding to her agony.
She was attended by some good phy sicians
as Tarboro anil her neightorho d could
afford, but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
and no permanent benefit, as tie plr-
oxysms continued to return wi h increas
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
of the patient: I called the f:mily togcth r
and told them to bear witness th.t | PR NJ
Sci ] could not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as 1 had
ne.er ever imagined such sufIcr.ar, but it
could do no harm and might d., good. I
then gave her a large dose of tn, Bitters
and as oon as the paroXysm w. S over, /
sponged her whole body with the Wash.
While doing SO she would call ut, ooh,
that docs fecl so-good" l then give he1
another dose of the Bitters, and she was
soon in a sweet sleep. | continued this
treatment, and whenever the itching would
recur l would sponge the body instantly
with the Wash, which in every instance
allayed in the irritation or i-chlng and
warde I off those violent parox yms. She
did not have an attack during the day,
and by 4 O'Clock Oh We ,nesday afternoon
the d sease was under perfect coatrul. The
itching would recur, ! III every time wa
allayed by the application of II e Wash. ]
left her Wednesday easy and comfortable
with directions for'he treatment to ! e con.
tinucd during the night and as long a
was Necessary. came again TO see he
tod ", Saturday, the 18th, and f und hel
up AMI dressed and in the regular prose
cution of her household duties. She is en-
tirely r Ii We alth ugh she will : fcourse
have to tlke the Bitters some time to com
p'etely cradle tie the poison from be
blood. During Wtdne, day she frequent,
call for the Blttcrs, as she cravcd its sooth
ing and oui,tins effects, and during the da,
l admin tered a whole bott;c, with th
above results, thus proving, what l hav
always claimed. that my Remedy in a.
infa:liblc antidote for all blood impurity.
l am respectfully.
