DR.. SHADES DISCOVERY
For Consumption Investigation Re-
opened.
BY Request Persons Cured Outside Of the Dis
triet of Columbia

1t must have been noticed by all who have
been reading OF DR.. Shade. 1892 Fourteenth
street, and his success as a lung specialist,
which was very apparent 10 The TINES re-
porter, that all the seven persons interviewed
have been enjoying their accustomed health
for year or two, since cured by DR.. Shade
This is a very important fact to bring out in
clearing up our investigation Of the remarka-
BILE success in arresting the dread disease
consumption, which has up until the pres
ent baffled the skill OF the medical world. We
are constrained to say with Prof. p. Brett
Morgan, professor Of lung diseases in the
San Francisco Medical College, ''Dr. Shade
has made the greatest discovery of the cen
tury." While many people have been cured
during the last twelve months, it has been
thought by those who have the investigation
in charge that the prophetic number ..seven"
who have been reported, will suffice 10 prove
beyond all doubt that DR.. Shade has at last
proven his ability to cure consumption.
In due time we will report other citizens of
the District cured, but for the present will
narrate a few interviews had with persons
cured outside of Washington City. DR..
Shade has completed his plan of ''absent
treatment so he can treat consum ptives IN
able to visit him. The first case interviewed
by THE TIMES man, who has been having a
splendid outing on his wheel up in Pennsyl-
vania-is Fl. C. Carbaugh, esq. Blacks Gap.

him who We were and our business ne was
seemingly much delighted, and remarked
that he was glad to tell me all about his case,
which he did. He said: Il had the grip
three years ago, followed by double pneU-
monia. l was very bad of. Ny lungs be-
coming involved, my case was pronounced 10
be the worst form of consumption by eleven
doctors during my long illness. | lived in
the West at the time. My sister here in the
East wrote and told Us OF DR.. Shades success
in curing consumption.
II was confined to bed at the time, having
just taken a relapse, but in few days we
made preparation 10 move East. Ny friends
thought 1 would die on the way, but die
must, said l, and l might as well die on the
way as to die here. 1 shall never forget that
trip as long as live, neither will my loved
onss; but thank God alone l reached my
sisters home still alive. After short rest
perseYered and succeeded in consulting Dr.
Shade and while he did not give me much
encouragement, | was persuaded by loved
ones to continue the treatment for four
months. when 1 improved slowly In about
six months l was much better. and now to-
day am well man. l had spit very much
blood, and was also reduced to a skeleton.
Now | weigh 161 pounds. / am flfty-three
years old. and can say that feel better than
| have for ten years past. Dr. Shade has
done wonders for me. for I enjoy life now
again. L must say tnat Dr. Shade mas
done me more good than all the doctOring
1 had done for twenty-three years, for
I had been suffering with weak lungs and a
cough for over twenty years. We live very
plain here in the country but you are welcome
to stay over night" which 1 did. He could
not get done talking about DR.. Shade and ask
ing questions as to the doctors health, pros
perity family, etc. was delighted with the
family and the good cld-fashioned ''mush
and milk" Mr.. Carbaugh has been a lumber
and timber man and is still busily engaged in
doing some contracting they told me. At
all events he was up and gone to work before
came down stairs in the morning. which he
told me he would have to do before we re-
tired for the night. He has become quite
wealthy and knows how to manage his for
tune. The next place of interest 1 struck was
Cearfoss, Md, which 1 shall put off for next
Sundays issue of TIE TINES. J. W. B.
