no feeling in it at all. had many
sleepless nights and suffered intensely.

Harpe and had two specialists from
Chicago, but there wasn't one among
the doctors who could tell what my
trouble was and their treatments did
not help me. My brothers moved me
TO La Harpe from Stronghurst during
my sickness but had no hopes OF ever
getting well. took electric treatment
without any help and many medicines
with no better result. My home doctor
came 10 see me one morning after he
had been treating me for three months
and told me that he couldn't do any
more for me and that ought TO 60 TO
the Springs. But as couldn't sit up
or walk kept on trying different doc
tors for eighteen months. When one

them for two weeks, carefully following
the directions and at the end Of that
time began TO crave q good meal. Ny
