A STRANGE CASE.

The following graphic statement will bc
read with intense interest: II cannot describe
the numb, creepy sensation that existed IN my
arms, hands and legs. l had to rub ana beat
those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in q measure the dead feeling that had taken
possession OF them, In addition, l had
strange weakness III my back and around my
waist, together with an indescrlbahle gone
feeling In my stomach. Physicians said IT
was creeping paralysis. from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there Is. no
relief Once 1t fastens upon person, they
saw, it continues its insidious progress until
1t reaches vital point and the sufferer dies.
Such was my prospect. ] had been dOctOring
n year and q half steadily, but with no par
ticular benefit. when saw an advertisement
OF DR. Miles Restorative Nervine, procured Q
bottle and began using it. Marvellous as II
may seem, but few days had passed before
every bit Of that creepy feeling had left me,
and there has not been even the slightest
indication OF its return. II now feel as
we'll us 1 ever did and have gained ten
mounds in weight, though had run down
from 40 to 13. Four others have used DIR.
