DIlSCOll nOtel, Wnen from carriage
hastily driven from the depot two gen.
tlemen emerged. One was an elderly,
well dressed gentleman OF about sixty,
his face was swollen almost twice it's
natural size, his eyes and mouth almost
closed. The other gentleman, who was
his attendant, stopped to ask me if I
could refer him to frst-class physi-
clan. I recommended him to the one who
was then attending me, and at the same
time asked him about the disease of his
friend. In reply he stated that about
three weeks before he had been bitten
by some kind OF spider, and while they
had tried the skill of the best and most
noted physicians in their section of the
country, none had been of any advan-
tage to him. About two months ago a
growth had appeared in the glands in
the side of the neck. This was removed
by an operation, but soon reappeared
A late conference of the doctors had re-
ported that he could not live; we be-
ing, however, undecided as to their
p1ognisis, intend to try again. We are
now en- route to Louisville, KY, to con-
suit the specialist, DR.. Rea, OF that city.
Our train being delayed few hours, we
are now compelled to remain in Austin
until evening.
You will not see DR.. Rea in Louis
vile, | replied, as remember seeing in
the Houston Post where Dr.. Rea will
visit Houston, Texas, in few days, there
tore you had better stop there and save
yourself the journey. What" NUT
tered the sufferer between his half closed
teeth. DIR. Rea Of Louisville in Texas;
how fortunate"
They left Austin that night and upon
arriving at Houston the next morning
found that DR.. Rea was due in Houston
one day later.
DR.. Rea arriving in due time was in
formed of the suffering and importance
OF the patient waiting. and he fastened
to make an early examination of his
case.
Without asking him question, DR..
Rea said to him: my dear sir, it is my
opinion that you have been bitten by
some poisonous insect; it is also nv
opinion that one of your parents or very
near relatives has died of cancer and
that your system being specially liable
to develop cancer, has only been aggra-
waited by this bite which has produced a
cancerous growth. With the proper
treatment your case can be cured. Do
you want me to doctor you?"
YES" said the gentleman
No sooner had his permission been
granted than DR.. Rea injected some
thing into the growth, gave him some
thing to make him rest and then sent
him to his room to lie down. Being
treated in the same manner the next
day, he started to his home, stopping
In Austin for few hours between trains.

He assured me that he was feeling
mitch better and that the doctor had
promised him permanent and lasting
cure in from three to five months. Be-
ing interested in his case, I gave him my
address. Six months afterwards l re-
ceived letter from him saying that DR..
Rea had cured him and that he was in
better health than he had been for years.

me permanently. / met a number oi
patients while in Texas, as l have in all

they all tell me OF two miraculous fea
lures in DR.. Rea's practice. His TN

say, when I say that DR.. Rea can take
any sick person and in few moments
tell every phase Of their disease bette
than they can tell him. have recent y
returned from trip through the west
stopping in South Dakota Have
learned that DR.. Rea has over seventeen
saadred patients in that state. His
books show in connection with the in
consumption, tumor, paralysis, fatty de-
generation OF the heart, kidney and
nervous diseases that he does not lose
one case in ninety, that his patients are
those having the worst cases of chronic
diseases and have been given up by
other physicians as incurable, and yet
these ircurable, malignant diseases
seem to be handled by him with the ut
most ease and uniform success. The
names Of some of the patients whom he
has cured in South Dakota and other
places throughout the coountry have
come to my notice.
