HIERATIC INDURATION! Clements I onic Called In IT CURED EVERY CASE.
The Case of Mr. JAS. SMITH. (From the “ Liverpool Herald ,” July SO.) (by our special reporter.) PvEraiiTS continually coming to hand from different quarters as to tlie most exceptional recovery of Mr. Jas. Smith, of High-street, Liv< rpool, from a complication of disorders which would prove fatal to a man of an oidinary constitution, we put inquiries on foot to get the truth. A representative c-f this paper found Mr. Smith in his shop in High-street, and asked him if tho current reports of his case were true. “ Yes,” replied Mr. Smith, “ and as X think My Remarkable Case should have full publicity in the cause of humanity I will give you an hour. My ■.omplaint crept upon me in a slow, insidious manner, like a thief in the night; it must have pr- gmsed for many months before I ■uspected anything was the matter, till Meat Alarming Symptom# Set In.” “ What were they ? ” “ A strange dizziness and palpitation of the heart. Even then I thought there was nothing seriously wrong with mo but a * ouch of indigestion, which I expected would pass off in a day or two, I found out later, however, that my yvsr and Kidneys Were Diseased. [n a morning the taste hi my mouth was aa hii ter ar '/all, and my food, instead of digestng, used to go sour, causing me to have & Ib-hgreeab'e breath, and the bitter taste to u, almost all day.

Jy In art would palpi'atc frightfully, and I •nine lo the conclusion that I had heart disease. However, I found out later the wind in my stomach was causing a pressure m my heart that resulted in palpitation. On .•••• oi her occasion 1 could have sworn that >. tumour was growing within me, as I could t-.cl a Hard, Painful Lump in my side.” (This was hardening of the Liver —Kn.). “ Did you suffer from any marked liver or kidney symptoms ? ” “ r\ b ; a dull, aching, dragging pain acioss tho loins and in the small of my Back became continual. It felt exactly like A 56 Pound Weight hanging on my backbone ; at night the pain was wotse. It then felt red hot as I rolled from side to side vainly trying to get relief, and there were piercing Pains Across The Shouidera f and the muscles got contracted.” “ In what way, Mr, Smith ? ” “ One morning I found my head all drawn to one side, and my neck was fixed in this position. When I wanted to turn my head to look at anything or to speak to anyone 1 was forced to turn my whole body," “You called in a doctor then, I suppose ?" “ Yes; don’t talk of doctors to me. 1 must have taken Bucketfuls of Their Physic, but with no result. I went slowly from bad to worse. Sometimes I was so giddy that I had to cling to something to keep on my feet. Terrible headaches afflicted mo. I had long since lost my appetite. I ate as little as possible, because of the pain and distension that always followed. My Long Continued illness altered my disposition very much. 1 became morose and dispirited. I grew nervous, and I couldn’t bear anyone to even speak to me. I lost greatly in weight, and if you had seen me then you could hardly have been persuaded that I was the
