for him, but he grew worse until he was in
a pitifuI condition. Ee suffered terribly
at night and complained continually of
his head, and in what little sleep he was
able to get, moaned increasingly. He lost
all control of the muscles of his body and
limbs. He had no appetite and complained
Of feeling sick at his stomach all the time.
After we had tried many different reme-
dies and had about given up all hope,
we commenced giving him Hoods Sarsa-
