EPILEPSY!
EPILEPSY POSITIVELY CURED At
DR.. F. B. SMITHS
PARLoRs,
312 WYOMING AVENUE

Read what Mr.. James Herman has to
say of his wonderful cure.
Mr.. James Herman, an old resident Of
Olyphant and gentleman of the finest
reputation and character, was taken
about two years ago with epilepsy. He
first began to experience dizziness or
vertigo which was accompanied by Sc
we're pains in the head, back and limbs.
A tired, drowsy feeling would come
over him and continue for hours at 2
time His sleep was disturbed by UT
pleasant dreams, and on arising would
feel more tired than when he went to
bed. He continued to grow rapidly
worse and he would suddenly fall to the
ground, losing all consciousness; the
race and lips would become purple, the
forehead wrinkled, the face swollen;
sometimes a deathly pallor would come
over him but generally it was of deep
purple hue; the teeth clinched, lips
would become blue with frothing at the
mouth, the limbs would violently con-
vulee, while the body warped and
twisted in frghtful manner. When
an attack would come on he would in
variably fall to the ground. In falling
he would usually strike some object
which would keep his body fearfully
bruised most Of the time. Mr.. Herman
applied to the most eminent physicians
In this country, but without avail. He
was finally induced to consult DR..
Smith. He did so and from the first be-
gan to improve. This was three weeks
ago, and today he Is well man and
with no signs of the former dreadful
malady.
Next week DR.. Smith will hold free
clinics at his parlors every day from 1
