FACTS ARR STUBBORN THINGS.
From IarSoro Southerner. july ILL.,
While visiting Tarborc on July 9Th, l
was requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
seven miles from t wn, who for seven
weeks had been suffering e~xcruciating
agony from come blood poison, Supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at her
r. quest, I went to see her, and expected to
see great suffering, but was not prepared
for the scene that met me-. I found the
patient broken out all over with an erup-
ton which had occasioned such intense
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn herself to pieces until her agony
was indescribable. During these par
oxysms she would have to be held, anG
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 yellow water which satu-
rated the bed through several thick 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 breed out
ome of the teeth, thus adding to her agony
She was attended by some good physicians
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+1
and told them to bear " illness that l PROM
ICED NOTHING. I Col'd not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as 1 had
never even imagined such suffering, hut it
could do no harm and might do good. l
then gave her a large dose of the Bitters
and as oon as the paroxysm YVES over,
sponged her whole body with the Wash
While doing so she would call out, "Oh
hat docs feel so good" I then gave her
another dose of the Bitters, and she was
soon in a sweet sleep I 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 and
warde1 off those violent paroxsyms. She
did not have an attack during the day,
and by 4 O'Clock on Wednesday afternoon
the disease was under perfect control. The
tching would ,v.ur, Tut every time was
allayed by the application OF the Wash. l
left her Wednesday easy and enmfnFtable,
with directions for the treatment to Re con
tinued during the night and as long as
was Necessary. I came again to see he
tod ~, Saturday, the 18th, and found h
up an / dressed and in the regular prose
cutien Of her household duties. She is er
tirely + Ii We .alth Ugh she vii, ofGoNrse
have to t AXE the Bitters some time to com.
p'etely eradicate the poison from he,
flood. During Wednesday she frequently
call for the Bitters. as she craved its sooth
ing and qu:ctin. effects, and during the day
l admini7tefad 2 whole hattle, with tho
above results, thus proving, what ! have
always claimed. Il at my Remedy in ar
Iinfallible antiC rte for AL blood y rrity.
