HISTORY.

Popular belief associates the
"King's Evil' with blood poi.
soning and it is interesting te
here review the history of this
impression. The Kings Evil
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 pronouncing
few sacred words. After the
example of Edward, the King Of
France, became celebrated for
the skill with which they cured
scrofula, goitre, etc., by his pro-
cess. Scrofula then became unil
versally known as the King'-
Evil and is to-day sometimes as
luded to by that name. Such
method of cure has been claimed
to be the peculiar attribute of the
sovereigns of England and
France, but 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 in curing dis
ease. The exact words used for
the cure Of Scrofula by the
French Kings were:-"Le roi te
touche, Dieu te guerisse."
In this enlightened age no.
body would be silly enough to
trust case of Scrofula to a King
or his words unless it happened
hat the King aforesaid, had a
diploma or two from medical
colleges OF good repute. At this
writing none Of the Kings in our
:ircle Of acquaintance have taken
lp the study OF medicine and we
therefore suggest that every man,
woman and child suffering from
his dreadful disease send fifty :
:ents to DR.. Jonathan G. Tru-
nan, Lemon City, Fla, for a t
'ottle of "Marvelo." There is !
'ut one cure for the Kings Evil :
for Scrofula-and that one /
ure is Marvelo. This marvel /
us preparation can only be OBJ i
aimed of DR., Jonathan G. Tru- .
