A Remarkable Recovery.

The remarkable recovery of Mrs,
Lacy Bailey, the wife of Mr.. William
Bailey, of Charles Town, from an af-
Fiction due to an abnormal growth
that developed within the Uranium, di-
rectly below the center of the fore
head, has been given almost worldwide
celebrity by the proceedings of the
Pan-American Scientific Society in
session in Washington last week. Her
case was made the subject of lee
ture by DIR. Thomas Williams, the not
ed brain expert, of Washington, who
originally diagnosed her trouble and
recommended a treatment that re-
stored her to health. In his audience
were 800 physicians and specialists
from every country in the Western
Hemisphere. The growth had been
removed BY exposure to an .X-ray ma
chine. During the course of his lee
ture, Dr. Williams exhibited photo
graphic plates showing the varying
phases of the case from the beginning
to the end of the treatment, and said
that this is the second cure of such
disorder known to the medical pro-
fession, the first having occurred in
France several years ago.
