Our little boy was afflicted with hip dis
ease. or bone ulcer, when he was about
three years old. He suffered severely for
a wear and nine months. We had seven
different doctors for him, but they could
not cure him. They took out one piece OF
bone about 81 inches long, the shape OF
shoe. and one smaller piece. The hole in
his hip was about 81 inches deep, and the
sore kept running all the time. The doc
tors ordered us TO keep the hole filled with
cotton, saturated with some kind OF medi-
cine This we did, and used probe to in
sert the cotton. We could introduce the
probe about 81 inches; and found by NOV
ing the probe about that there was large
cavity next to the bone, and we could feel
the bone with the probe. The child was
very pale, thin and weak and could not
sleep, and we had no hope of his recovery.
The treatment we gave him under the doc
tors directions did him no good. We final
ly commenced using Aliens Ulcerine Salve
and it soundly and permanently cured him
in about six months He has been. well
about four years and is strong and'quite
fieshy, but limps a little on account Of one
leg being a little shorter than the other.
He is picture of health, and runs, scufiles
and plays with other boys as though moth
ing had been the matter with him. We be-
leve Ulcerine Salve saved his life.
