San Angelo, Texas,
May 20, 1913.
EDITOR JO~URNAL:-Accordin
to promise | am writing you to
day something of my experience
and impressions since leaving
Tupelo last November in search
of health. AS you know | was
in a very serious condition; my
case having been diagnosed as
tuberculosis of the lungs.
Ny observation as well as ex-
periences had taught me that
medicines were of no avail in
such cases. Therefore, | had to
rely on climate and other rene
dies than medicine for relief. In
my search for a suitable location
| pinned my faith to San Angelo
and her great sanitoriuh, pre-
sided over by DR.. ]. D. Brooks,
as medical director, and Doctor
Boyd Cornick, as consultant. Ex-
perience has demonstrated the
wisdom Of my conclusions, as |
landed here too sick to walk a
hundred yards to a hotel, with
fever 103. | began to mend the
first week and by the end of the
month l had gained 10 pounds.
Fever left me on the sixth day
and never returned. | am told
this is the only instance known
in which the fever failed to re-
turn occasionally.
| am now in perfect health and
weigh 1876 pounds, which is a
gain of AZ pounds since coming
here and is about Is pounds
heavier than | ever was in my
life. 1t might interest your read
ers to give the line of treatment
pursued here for the Great
White Plague" You are first
nerved up for battle by being in.
formed that your case is durable
and that tuberculosis is the most
durable of all chronic diseases.
Feeble patients are put in bed
and kept there until the fever
goes down to SO, then they are
allowed to go to their meals, no.
other exercise whatever is adj
vised.
Those who are stronger are
kept in bed two hours
ings and three evenings, and no
other exercise than going to
their meals. 1t would surprise
you how the fever and cough give
way under this treatment. You
are also advised that three things
are necessary for your recovery.
These are: Climate, diet and
rest, more stress being placed on
rest than the other two COM
bined. | have seen delicate
women kept in bed for six months
before being able to go to their
meals, and who are now rapidly
recovering. There is a remark
able case of a young man here
who has been in bed two years,
and who is now convalescent; is
going to his meals and weighs 16
pounds above normal. Rest being
natures own remedy for curing
her children, | often wonder why
the scientific.world has not found
it out sooner. 1t would have
saved untold treasure, much suf-
fering. sorrow and death, as
about one in ten of our popula

which can be so easily and simp-
ly cured, though there are doubt
ing Thomases here who see these
cures going on who are not yet
convinced.
AS to diet we are fed mostly

beef and milk being the principal
foods used. with an occasional

Prior to leaving for the train the body

his many kindnesses to them.
The body was taken back to Rocky
Ford by Richard Dye. son OF the de-
ceased, who came TO Canon City
Tuesday and was at his fathers bed
side when the end came. 1t will be a
sad Homecoming for the son. who,
while he knew OF his parents falling
health for long time, did not believe
that mis- condition was serious until
after his arrival here.
No arrangements have been made
for the funeral and they will not be
decided upon until word has been re-
ceived from a brother who lives in
California. But 1t is expected the
obsequies will be held Sunday. A
number of persons from this city
will attend the services, among them
being Representatives from the two
lodges mentioned and the penitentiary.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that Is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition OF the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have n
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when It is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result. and unless the in
fammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever:
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh. which is nothing but m In
famed condition OF the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused by
catnrrh) that cannot be cured by
