field found here and owing to my success with
number Of difficult cases in the early part of my
visit, the demand for my services and the require
ments of my rapidly increasing practice compell-
ed me to make a series of return visits Begin

ca.es seen. Now l will give you brief history
" few Of the most interesting cases that l can
| call to mind quickly and will mention only Yer
mont Cases as believe your readers are more in
terested in what have done and am doing here
than what did do in Texas or Wisconsin.
| One Of the most interesting cases think of was
that of Miss Nellie Stevens Of Bedford, p. O.
Canada. She came to see me at St. Adams last
| May and she poor sick child tell you. She
was suffering from Pernicious Anemia also
| called Chorosis and Green Sickness, but com
monty called Consumption of the blood. She had
| been treated by her family doctor without sue
| cess and had almost given up hope. | began
treating her once and she has constantly gained
under my until today she is the picture of
health. She has gained in weight from SIS pounds
| to 5 and still getting better. Another interest
ing case is that of Mr. W. G Lampson, the we'll
known business man Of Manchester Depot, VT.
| About year and half ago Mr.. Lampson was
| taken down with the G ip. The disease left his
| liver and kidney in a bad condition and about
| three months after his recovery he noticed rash
| or bright red spot coming out in different parts
and quickly spreading over the body and chang
| ing to scaly eruption. His family doctor told
! him he did not know exactly what the trouble
was but that it was a very uncommon disease
which he had never seen before and he wanted to
| photograph him in the interest of science New
| ertheless the good old doctor thuIght he could
| cure this very uncommon disease that he had
never seen before and knew nothing about, and
as Mr.. Lampson said: He put me throuyh
course OF baths and rubbings and sprouts till
what little good skin l had left was gone and
| parts of me were as as beefsteak By this
time thought something should be done and l
made up my mind the fir [ thing to be done
| to find physician who understood my case. but
where to find one id not know, as the one l al
| ready had called the best in that part of the
county. went to Rutland and saw a number of
the leading physicians but only one seemed to
Enow anything about my and he seemed to
think il couldn't be cured. BY this time as my
wife also sick and got no help from the local
DOCTORS l became discouraged and did not know
what to do or which way to turn. About this
time saw DR.. Barbricks notice in paper and
that he would be In South Londonderry on such
day made up my mind to go and see him, but
this time my faith was so small did not expect
much. But when the Doctor, the moment he
saw me, began explaining my disease, telling me
just how it came on and how it acted, telling me
how the other doctors had treated me and even
repeated almost word for word what they had
said to me when went to them about my case, |
made up my mind had not made the trip over
the mountain in vain. / had also brought my
wife with and the Doctor examining her
; said he could cure us both and he has kept his
word. My wife was in a terrible condition,
bundle of nerves. would sit and cry and be unable
to tel what it was all about, and had not been
able to do even the little housework required for
herself and me, but in less than three months she
was we'll woman. 1t took the doctor six months
to bring out but he did it and know dozen
of cases in the lower part of the state he has
done the same by aud | will always be pleased to
write to any one who will enclose a stamp for re.
; ply, my personal opinion of this wonderful pbysi-
clan and my experience with his treatment. My
wife will be pleased to do the same il any ladies
t wish to write her. Address W. c. Lampson,
