by all Those Suffering from
Chronic, Lorg-Standing and DIFF
fcult Diseases.
In the course Of the interview the doc
tor said | came into the state Of Yer
mont last May for the purpose of making
4 tour OF the state in the Interest of my
Boston office. / was surprised at the field
found here and owing to my success with
a number of difficult cases in the early
part Of my visit the demand for my SER
vices and the requirements made it neces.
sary for me to make series of return
visits. Beginning with Brattleboro May
llth, have visited 80 towns in Vern ont
alone, making two or three return visits
10 each town, have consulted with and
examined over 1000 people, rejected 43l
us incurable, have treated 27Gl patients;
have under treatment at the present time
2020 cases, having given 037 free Mag
netic treatments, giving II IN Morrisville
alone in one day. Exhausted? Yes, |
guess was, but my rccuperative powers
are SO great that good nights sleep
makes me fresh and strong for the next
days work. l doubt If there was much
benefit derived from the last treatments
given there, but us l had advertised to
treat all who called that day Free, and l
make it Il point to always do rs adver-
tiSe, | continued to treat as long Us the
people demanded it. l have been called
in consultation by II prominent phyS-
clans OF the state have ut present j6 cases
il which am acting as ad vising phySi-
clan, the course of treatment | map out
being administered by the family doctor
under my instructions. Is this healthy
state? No. sir, it is net. | have prac-
ticcd in lG states in the Union and in no
other state, little or big, have had the
number of cases of Catarrh, Consumption,
Cancer and Heart Disease that have had
in the state of Vermont, considering Of
course the num)c of cases seen. Now |
will give you Il brief history of few Of
the most interesting cases that can call
to mind quickly and will mention only
Vermont cases as believe your readers
are more interested in what have dOae
and am doing here than what ! did do in
Texas or Wisconsin. One Of the most
interesting cases think Of was thai Of
Miss Nellie Stevens of Bedford, Z. Q,
Canada. She came to see me at ST. Az
bans last May and she was Il poor sick
child tel! you. She was suffering from
Pcruicious Anacmia also called ChlOroSi'
and Green Sickness, but commonly called
Consumption OF the blood. She had been
treated by her family doctors withou
success aud had almost given up hope.
began treating her at once and she has
constantly gained under my care until to-
day she is the picture of health. She has
gained in weight from IS pounds to llj
aud still getting better Another inter-
csting case is that OF Mr.. w. c. Lampsol.
the weli-known business man OF Manchcs-
ter Depot, VT. About year and half
ago Mr.. Lampson was taken down with
the Grip. The disease left his liver anI
kidneys in bad condition, and about
three months after his recovery he noticed
Il rash or bright red spot coming out in
different parts and quickly spreading over
the body aud changing to scaly crap
ton. His family doctcr told him he did
not know exactly what the trouble WAS
but that it was very uncommon dlscaSt
which he had never seen before and II
wanted to photograph him ia the interest
of science. Nevertheless the good old
doctor thought he could cure this very
uncommon dScas sc tint he had never seen
LefOrc and knew nothing about, and as
Mr. Lampson said. "IIc put me thrOu III
Il course of baths and rubbings and
sprouts till what little good skin hld
left was gone and parts Of me were rs
raw as bGefstcak. by this time thought
something should he done and ! made u
my mind the first thing to be done, was
to find Il physician who understood my
l.,.. Ca Hall Il At
know, as the Que already bad was called
the best in that part of the county. l
went TO Rutland and saw Il number Of the
leading physicians but only, one seemed u
know anything about my case and he
seemed to think it Couldn't be cured BY
this time, rs my wife was also sick aud
got no help from The local doctors, be-
came discouraged and did not know VIVA,
to do or which way to turn. About this
time saw DR.. Barbrick's notice in Il
paper and tllat he would be in South Lon-
dondcrry on such day. made up my
mind to go and see him, but this time ny
faith was so small did not expect much. |
But when the doctor, the ElomenJ he saw
me, began explaining my disease, telling |
me Just how it came ON and how it acted,
teliiug me how the other doctors had |
ii Gated me aud even repeating 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. 1 had also |
brought my wife VITA me and the doctor
Oh examining her said he could cure us
both and he has kept his word. My wife
was in II terrible condition, was bundle
Of nerves; would sit and cry and DC UNI
able to tell what it was all about, uIl hid
not been able to do even The little house
work required for herself and me-, but in
css than three months she vas well
woman. 1t took the doctor six months to
bring Inc out but h. di it and know
lozcns OF cases in the lower part of the
state he has done the same by and Will
always be pleased TO write to any one
who will ell lose Il stamp for reply, my
personal opinion Of this wonderful physi-
,ian and my experience with his treat
nent. My wife will be pleased to do the
same it any ladies wish to write her.
Address w. c. LampSoI, Esq, Manchcs-
cr Depot, VT" Mr.. LampSOn's case was
skin disease kuowna rs Psoriasis. This
disease is not an uncommon one although
t is hot SO frequently mt with as other
Orn s of skin troubles such as EcZa ANA,
Salt Rheum, Pimplcs, BOtcheS, Acne,

uly as l did MIR. LlmpsOns case.

state and one from the southern part and

% come from Barton, guess, and is that
ii Miss Ida Ruggles, daughter of DR.. A.
VI. Ruggles, of that town. This little
ady was an awful sufferer and although

friends think it wonderful what has been
lone for her. But rs l see you have
