HISTORY.

Popular belief associates the
"King's Evip' with blood poi
soning and it is interesting tc
here review the history of this
impression. The Kings Evi
first appears in History just prior
to the Twelfth Century when
Edward the Conqueror imagined
he possessed the miraculous gift
of curing certain diseases by the
simple touch and by pronouncirs
few sacred words. After the
example of Edward, the King of
France, became celebrated for
the skill with which they Gu e
scrofula, goitre, etc., by his pro-
cess. Scrofula then became uni
versally known as the Kings
Evil and is to-day sometimes al
luded to by that name. Such a
method of cure has been claimed
to be the peculiar attribute of the
sovereigns of England and
France, bit history does not SAN
ton this, for it appears to have
been not unfrequently employed
in Scandinavia, and to have been
derived from the mystical prac-
tices of the Divide i'll curing dis
ease. The exact words used for
the cure Of Scrofula by the
French Kings were: lie roi te
touche, Dieu te guerisse.' "
In this enlightened age no.
body would be silly enough to
trust a case OF Scrofula to a King
or his words unless it happened
that the King aforesaid, had a
or two from medical
colleges of good repute. At this
writing none of the Kings in our
circle Of acquaintance have taken
up the study OF medicine and we
suggest that every man,
woman and child suffering from
this dreadful disease send fifty
cents to DR.. Jonathan G. Tru-
man, Lemon City, Fla, for a
bottle of "Marvelo" There is !
but one cure for the Kings Evil
for Scrofula and that one
cure is Marvelo. This marvel
ous preparation can only be OBJ
tanned of DR. Jonathan G. Tru-
man, Lemon CITY, Fla.

Catarrh Leads
to Consumption.
A FOrerunner of the Most
Fatal Disease.

Though its offensive features
arc sometimes almost unbcarablc,
Few people are aware of the danger
Of which CAtarrh is the forcrun-
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption. Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who RELY
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is impossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. Tho offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing a
feeling of personal dciilcment, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
only n question Of a short time
until tho lungs arc affected.
Tho Importance Of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
over can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will.
