FACTS ARR STUBBORN THINGS.
From 7ar6oro southerner. Ju1v III

While visiting Tarboro, on July 8th.
was requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
miles from town, h for sewn
weeks hal been suffering excruciating
agony from some blood pc son, supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at | er
re quest, I went to see her. and expected to
see great suffering, but wa net pref AIRED
the see ne that met me. / found the
patient bro! en- out all ovs r with an erup-
ton which had occasioned such intense
that during the paroxysms she WA
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn h. rself to pieces until her agony
was indescribable. During these par
oxysms she would hare to be held, an
her screams could be heard a long distance. ,
She would pray for death to come to he
relief; her whole brdy was purple an9
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 prevented, had raked herself
with it with such force as to bread out
ONE of the teeth, thus adding to her agony.
She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro and her neighEorhocd 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 | called the family togethe1
and told them to bear witness that PROM
IsED NOTHING. I could not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as / had
never even imagined such suffering, but it
could do no harm and might do good. /
then gave her a large dose of the Bitters
and as soon as the paIoxysm YVES over,
sponged her whole body with the Wash
While doing SO she would call cut, "Oh
that does 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 l would sponge the body instantly
with the Wash, which in every instance
allayed in the irritation or itching and
warde1 off those violent paroxzyms, She
did not have an attack during the day,
and by 4 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon
the d sease was under perfect control The
itching would recur, ut every time was
allayed by the. application of the Wash. ]
left her Wednesday easy and comfortable
with directions for he treatment to | e con
tinued during the night and as long az
was Necessary. I came again to see he
tod ", Saturday, the 18th, and found h
up and dressed and in the regular prose
cutien of her household duties. She is en-
tirely + Ii We alth ugh size will of course
have to take the Bitters some time to com
pietely eradicate the poison from he
blood. During Wednesday she ~froauentl,
call for the Bltters, a. ahe crayed its sooth
ing and au1tt:ns effects, and during the da,
[ administered a whole bottle, with til,
above results. thus proving, what l hay,
always claimed. that my Remedy in al
infallible anti6 ote for all blood ~, r.rity.
