AblaZ0 With ErysipelaS

There is no disease of the blood which so completely puzzles the doc tors as Erysipelas. They admit that it is blood trouble, but like other such diseases, they are unable to effect a cure.
 It is not surprising that those who are afflicted with this distressing dis ease should suffer such untold agonies. Like a consuming flame, it covers the skin with a fiery, burning redness which is almost unbearable, and only those who have been so afflicted can describe its tortures.
 Aside from the suffering which Fry sipe1as causes, there is always great danger attending the disease, unless promptly checked. The inflammation spreads through the tissues of the skin and, when vital part is attacked, the result is disastrous. Often the bones are affected, and become so diseased that they crumb1e away, leaving the patient an invalid for life.
 Here is such case, where the doc tors were unable to afford relief, and strongly urged all operation.
 Miss Ada Wainwright is a most esti- mable young lady, residing at Alamo, Tenn. After being under the doctors care constantly for three years and de- clared incurable, she saw before her only the gloomy life of an invalid. Under date of May 8th, 1896 she writes
 ''I feel it my duty to inform you of the great good I have received from your remedy, $. S. s., for I am sure that it saved my life. For three years

Now they say as you say: How healthy and strong you look, Joe,' and whenever they ask me what cured my consumption tell them No-To-Bac. The last week 1 used tobacco I lost four pounds. The morning 1 began the use of No-To-Bae weighed 126la pounds today l weigh 169, a gain of forty-tVo and half pounds. l eat heartily and sleep well. Before used No-To-Bac I was so nervous that when l went to drink I had to hold the glass in both hands. Today my nerves are perfectly steady Where did l get No-To-Bac? At the drug store.
