    iberlm. L >■ ain Co., O. 1 take extreme pleasure in giving the public a knowledge of my case. I consider it very remarkable. For several years I had Rheumatic, Dyspepsia and chronic diarhcea. I was reduced in flesh, and crippled so that I resorted to canes, and could not get along without them, and for work, that I could not do for years. My friends knew well my condition. I heard of Dr. Libbey, of Cleveland ; I sent my name to him and he describ- ed my case accurately, and sent me medicines. Taking into consideration my circum- stances, and the fact that in a few months I could walk well, eat well, my flesh become healthy, and can now do a good day's work, and feel well after it, it is indeed wonderful. My friends hardly know me when they see me on the street. What I think singular in this case is, that up to this writing I have not seen the doctor or he me, thus proving that he can cure without seeing the patients. If those afflicted will take my advice, they will place themselves under Dr. Libbey'S treatment. He will cure you if he says so. If not, he will tell you, if called upon or consulted by mail. I should be most happv to give my opinion more fully. C. S. HOPKINS. We fully concur in the abjve statement of Mr. Hopkins, being well acquainted with him for many years, and knew his true condition. He now Inoks as well and hearty as 1 most men in this place. WM. HOVEY. H. I,. HENRY, A. B.

My daughter, aged about fourteen years, had a white swelling, which assumed its most aggravated form, a fever sore. The suffering it caused is little known except b,y those who have experienced the affliction. For months our cares and anxious efforts for herrelief were beyond description. The first time the swelling was opened it discharged three quarts of acrid matter. We consulted the oldest physicians without any benefit.— They stated that the limb must be amputated or it would rot off, and the girl would not survive long. Providentially we heard of Dr. Libbey, and consulted him, and after a thorough examination he pronounced her a curable subject, much to our pleasure. With- in four weeks from the time he commenced his treatment, a portion of the thigh bone, oi full size and three inches in length was extracted by his cleansing process, and in twelve weeks from the time he first saw her, she was well, the sores all healed, the iimb, which was fearfully contracted, made straight, and the action of the limb became so per- fect that it soon obtained an equal size with the other. What seems the most remarkable of all is, that the limb is equally as long asthe other, notwithstanding the removal of so large a portion of the bone. Her general health is perfectly good.

Besides this, about seven or eight months ago, sores came out all over me, and with the other complaint, incapacitated me for work.
