Jacob j. Reitemeier," says the
Lafayette Qnd) Daily Call of January
Is, the we'll known compositor in the
Call news room, son OF one OF our Oldest
and best known German citizens, has
daughter just three years old last Satur
day. who almost from her birth has
been afflicted with spinal meningitis,
and has just experienced a recovery
which is little short of miraculous.
"Mr. and Mrs. Reitemeier were three
years ago made the proud parents OF
twin sisters, one of whom died on the
5th Of June two years ago. with spinal
meningitis. The latter part OF the
same month her surviving twin sister
was attacked with the disease in
most aggravated form. The family had
the constant services throughout the
whole summer of some of our best ply
sicians, three Of whom in turn examined
and attended the case. The child was
unable to walk, almost unable to move,
and entirely helpless.
THE physicians, one and all, agreed
that the case WAS hopeless, that nothing
could be done for this child. Their
opinion WAS that she would never be
cured, and probably would soon die.
From everything done for her she ex.
perlenced no benefit, and the physicians,
candidly stating that they could do
nothing for the cure of the child, were
dismissed, and beyond mild domestic
treatment, rubbing with alcohol, ETC.,
to alleviate immediate symptoms, moth.
Ing was done for her, and the sad
hearted parents only waited the sum-
mons, which thew felt must soon come.
for her final release from her affi ctions.
"Thus matters went on for about q
year, the little one changing, II at all,
only for the worse, and steadily but
surely going down. One year this
month, Mr.. Reitemeier informs US, at
tracted by the advertisement OF DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy. in the Call he and his wife
finally concluded to try it, though with
very slender hopes of deriving any
benefit. There was decided improve
mont In the child's condition with the
use OF the first bottle, which con-
tinued during the second, and before
the third bottle was all used the child
was able to walk upright, and appar-
emily cured. Thereupon the use of the
medicine was discontinued, and has no.
been resumed.
"In the year which has since elapsed
the child has grown to be as fat and
healthy and active little one as any
parent need wish to see. and MIR. and
Mrs. Reitemeier say they feel beyond a
doubt that the use of DR.. Greenes
Nervura blood and nerve remedy saved
her life. The case is certainly q very
remarkable one, and the well-known
and reliable character of the parties
gives it especial Importance and signifi.
cance."
This Is indeed most wonderful cure,
and great triumph for Dr.. Greene's
Nervura. and curing as 1t did in the
Daily Calls official family, the fact will
have the greatest weight in influencing
all who are sick or ailing to use this
truly marvellous restorer OF health.
This grand rem edy should not be classed
with ordinary patent medicines, as it is
the discovery of successful physician
who has the largest practice in the
world among nervous and chronic
diseases, DR.. Greene, of IS West 14th
street, New York city. He can be con-
suited without charge in regard to any
case. personally or by letter, by all who
use the medicine.
