In the spring of 1894, while in Austin,
Tex. where / had been sent for my health,
was sitting in front of the Driscoll hotel
when from a carriage hastily driven from
the depot, two gentlemen emerged One
was an elderly, well-dressed gentleman Of.
about 60; his face swollen almost twice its
natural size, his eyes and mouth almost
closed. The other gentleman, who was
his attendant, stopped to ask me if could
refer him to frst-clasS physician. rec
commended him to the one who was then
attending me. and at the same time aSkea
him about the disease of his friend. In re-
nlv he stated that about two years ago
Growth had appeared in the glands OF the
neck This was removed by an operation
but soon reappeared A late conference
of the home doctors have reported that ne
could not live and we are now enroute to-
Louisville. Ky, TO consult DR.. Rea OF that
civ. Our train being delayed we are now
compelled to remain in Austin until even
ing.
You will not see DR., Rea in Louisville, !
renIied. as / remember seeing in the Hous-
ton Post where Or. Rea will visit Houston.
Tex. in few days, therefore you had pet
ter stop there and save yourself the Jour
new. esWhat," muttered the sufferer be-
tween his half-closed teeth, "Dr Rea OF
Louisville in Texas; how fortunate"
They left Austin that night and upon ar
irving at Houston the next morning found
that DR.. Rea was due in Houston one day
later
Dr. Rea arriving in due time was inform
ed of the suffering and Importance OF the
patient waiting and fastened to make an
early examination of his case.
Without asking him question, DR. Rea
said to him: "My dear sir, it is my opin-
ion that you have been bitten by some
poisonous insect; it is also my opinion
that one of your parents or very near rel
ativeS has died of cancer and that your
system, being specially liable to develop
has only been aggravated by this bite,
which has produced cancerouS growth.
With the proper treatment you can be
cured. Do you want me to doctor you?
No sooner had his PERMISSION been
granted than Dr. Rea injected som ething in
to the growth and gave him something 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 few hours
between trains. saw him again at the
hotel.
He assured me that he was feeling much
better and that the doctor had promised
him a cure in from three to five months
Being interested in his case gave him my
address Six months afterwards received
letter from him saying that he was cured
and that he was in better health than he
had been for years. | met number Of
patients while in Texas, as have in all sec
tons of the country have been in, they
all tell me of the miraculous features in
Dr. Rea's practice, his unerring ability tc
tell patient his disease without asking Z
question and the speed and ease with which
he cures the most malignant disease. II
cancer, consumption, tumor, paralysis
fatty degeneration of the heart, kidney ane
nervous diseases, he does not lose one cas-
in ninety, his patients are those having tn
worst cases of chronic diseases and hav
been given up by other physicians as in
durable, and yet these incurable, malignan
diseases seem to be handled by him witt
the utmost ease and uniform success. Tn

has cured have come to my notice.
