BLOOD POISON.
One Of the Most Wonderful
Cures on Record.

Our little daughter had q case OF ty-
phoid fever when she was three years
Old 1t settled in her right leg, the leg
swelling up just above the knee and
burst, and pieces OF bone came out. We
had three or four doctors attend her. but
they could do her no good at all. They
said there would have to be an opera
ton, and we took her to Darlington, 8.
G., and had an operation performed. We
waited about four months, and took her
to Charleston Hospitalfor another oper-
alton. and kept her there three months.
Dr. Simmons, the head surgeon there,
said thsleg would have to be amputated,
but would not consent to it. brought
her back to Darlington, and had another
operation performed there. / waited
four or five months, and took her to the
Memorial Hospital in Richmond, Va,
and had an operation performed. She
stayed there one month and five days,
and came back apparently well. In eight
months after her return. her leg swelled
and burst again in the same place. Pieces
OF bone were discharged. We called in
the doctor of this place. She had q hem :
orrhage from the lungs. The doctor
said her leg would have to come Oh. I
went to the drug store, got six bottles
Of Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy, and COM
menced giving it to her according to di-
rections In two weeks time. she could
get out of bed. By the time she had
taken the six bottles the leg was healed
up. Up to this time, she has taken
twenty eight bottles. Her leg seems per-
fectly well. She goes to school every day,
and has only slight limp. Her general
She is still taking the Remedy, as We
wish to be sure that all the poison is
eradicated from her system. Before
taking your Remedy, she was in bed
nearly all the time, and could scarcely
walk without the aid OF clutches. Now
she has no need Of them.
She is now ten years OF age. l consider

was in Lumberton, N. c., on October
8, 1907. Several of the ladies had q
great deal to tell me in regard to the
wonderful cure of Mrs. E. F. Kelley
child. They saw her at a time when she
was considered at deaths door, and the
child's leg was the only hope of saving
the child's life: that the cure of my Rem
edy had effected of her case was nothing
short Of a miracle. I went to Mrs. ke-
ly's, and saw the mother, but the little
girl was at school. The letter from
Mrs. Kelly given above explains the
child's condition. l was in Lumberton
again on the eighth of April, 1908, and
| again went to see Mrs. Kelly. The little
girl was at home, and, when she waf
| told who l was, she jumped into my
arms with delighted cry of welcome
II wouldn't take a thousand dollars for
seeing you, Mrs. Joe Person, for you
| saved my life' She is as healthy g
specimen of child as can be found in the
State, and child of winning grace and
| beauty. She is not even left with limp.
Mrs. Kelly told me that the frequent
| Operations that were made on the
child consisted of splitting the child's leg
| to the bone, scraping the bone, and cut
| ting away the diseased flesh. The scars
| that were left from these operations were
fearful; the one on the outside of her leg
extends to the bone for the length ol
seven inches; the one on the inside fol
four inches.
| Healthy, natural skin now covers the
bone, and her leg is perfectly well, and
her general health perfect. Mrs. Kelly
showed me a drainage tube which sht
had to insert by the doctors direction
every day, passing it through the decayed
bone of her leg. When she would syringe
a Wash through either opening. it woult
pass through the opposite opening, AND
Mrs. Kelly said the leg was virtually
honeycombed with this decayed flesh. II
would pay anyone scientifically interest

has done for Mrs. Kelly's little girl.
