Statements Ike these appearing here
with today from those whose hearing
had been restored, If published two years
ago would have startled the scientific
world
SO rare, up to the time that Doctor
Mccoy first made known the discovery
OF his Cure for Deafness, had been cases
OF restored hearing under methods then
III vogue that testimony like this would
have been the one subject of considera-
tIon OF the medical profession of the world.
Today it seems a common thing.
week by week, month by month and
year by year, absolutely without limit,
have been told these stories OF hearing
restored, until their very number has taken
away the glamour from the marvel
Yet to those still deaf they mean as
much as ever, for they point 10 sure
relief from bondage; and to thos,. who so
gladly tell the story of restoration they
mean the wonder of a new life.
These People Were Deaf!
Two years ago all the doctors in Christ
endom would have told them, almost
without exception, that they must remain
deaf forever.
They Now Hear.
And because they hear none need de-
