Jacob j. Reitemeier,' says the La
fayette Und.) Daily Call, of JAN 18th,
the we'll known compositor in the Call
news-room son of one of our Oldest and
best known German citizens, has a daugh-
ter Just three years old last Saturday
who almost from her birth, has been
afflicted with spinal meningitis, and has
lust experienced recovery which is little
short of miraculous.
Mr. and Mrs. Reitemeer were three
years ago made the proud parents of twin
sisters, one of whom died on the 9TH of
June two years ago, with spinal menin-
gifts The latter part of the same month
her surviving twin sister was attacked
with the disease in a most aggravated
form. The family had the constant ser
vices throughout the whole summer of
some of our best physicians, three of
whom in turn examined and attended the
cases. The child was unable to walk,
almost unable to move and entirely help
less
The physicians, one and all, agreed
that the case was hopeless that nothing
could be done for this child. Their opin
ion was that she would never be cured,
and probably would soon die. From
everything done for her she experienced nc
benefit, and the physicians, candidly stat
ng 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, nothing was done for her and
the sad hearted parents only waited thu
summons which they felt must soon come
tor her final release from her Affections.
THUS matters went on for about
year, the little one changing, if at all
only for the worse, and steadily but surely
1oing down. One year this month, Mr.
Reitemeier informs us, attracted 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 but very slender hopes OF
deriving any benefit. There was decided
Improvement in the child's condition with
the use of the first bottle, which continued
turing the second, and before the third
bottle was all used the child was ablo to
walk upright, and apparently cured
Thereupon the use of the medicine was
discontinued, and has not been resumed
I'm the year which has since ELAPSED
the child has grown to be as fat and
healthy and active a little one as any
parent need wish to sec, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Reitemeier say they feel beyond
doubt that the use of DR.. Grecnes Ner.
vura blood and nerve remedy saved hel
life. The case is certainly very remark,
able one, and the well-known and reliable
character of the parties gives it especial
Importance and significance
This is indeed Il most wonderful cure.
and great triumph for Dr. Grcenes
Nervura and occurring as it 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 rcstorer of health. This grano
remedy should not be clsssed with ortiin-
AIRY patent medicines, as it is the discovery
Of successful physician who has the
largest practice in the world among ner-
gous and chronic diseases, DR. Greene.
