REASON FOR GlVlNS THIS CASE.

In selecting the case Of Mrs. Lizzie NJ. McCurdy,
who was carried TO Dr. Copeland and Gardner a
hopeless invalid, indeed so feeble and weak that
she had TO be supported up the steps and into the
ONCE by her daughter and her cousin. we are not
In any degree appealing to the credulity Of news.
paper readers; We are simply giving the exact
words. the truthful and easily verified experience
OF the patient. and we produce II, not to represent
Drs. Copeland and Gardner as miracle
workers. but to show, as we have shown again
and again In these columns, that such conditions
are not hopeless. that they may be cured.
II is reason enough, II any reason need be given
for the publication Of such an experience, that
there are thousands Of people to-day in New York
whose relatives and friends feel that they are
perfect health and strength. This is no idle state
ment; It Is the simple truth.
This narrative of Mrs. McCurdy's is no more re.
markable than that given last week by Mr.. Will
lam Kidney, the we'll known contractor living at
1876 Fast 69th at. He stated plainly that twenty
different doctors had given him up TO die Of Con.
sumption: that DIS. Copeland and Gardner re-
stored his health.
This narrative OF Mrs. McCurdy's is no more re-
markable than that given a few weeks ago by Mr..
Charles Fredericks, the Oldest photographer in
New York, at TO Broadway. Mr.. Fredericks
states that he Vas cured of Lung Trouble by Drs.
Copeland and Gardner nearly n year ago, and that
he has been a strong, sound. well man ever since.
In giving Mrs. McCurdy's statement exactly as
she made II; word for word as she delixared IT to
the writer. We are only showing that even the
severest conditions Of Catarrhal Extension are
