A Perfect Rejuvenation..:.

The Case of MRB. CUUFtA GARTER,.' {From tlie " Pmnth. Times J}s.S.Y%.\ . f,. ; 9 d- (-nr-; OUB' 'SPECIAL KEFORTER.) 'Z "My case," said Mrs. Carter, of Com. nercial-street, Penrith, to our reporter, who •vas questioning her as to her illness, "was me of simple weakness, a sort pf- gradual leeline, but it was a very serious thing all lie same, and I firmly believe that if I had lot been fortunate enough to obtain a emedy which was able to supply what was leficient in my blood, I should have wasted nd Wasted Away Till I Died. Hiis wasting* disease (ii you can call that a lisease) which showed no violent_ymptom, >r gave no direet acute pain, stole upon me all -iiawares. If I had any pain it was only as n csult of my weakness. My blood was s£ >oor that my face went the Colour pf Yellow Soap— /ery waxy lookin^-and my lips, the inside •f my eyelids, ancrmy gums were a peculiar vlrite. I suffered very greatly from loss of '' leep. Strange as it may appear, I was' too veak and weary to even sleep. When I got •nit of bed in the morning I could hardly lift :uy arms, and in a few ininutes I should be ' ■uite tired out. My appetite was as weak > md faded: as myself. No delicacies in-; luced a desire to eat, and my food was . »ot able to strengthen me. It didn't digest properly. I was not strong enou;. hto ligest. it, and from this cause alone I suffered keen distress. I grew weaker, more pale and wan, as regularly as the Kinds of the clock went round. Little by ' ittle I Gave up my Work. "irst, I had to cease washing the clothes,, nd then came a time when I couldn't even ■vash tho tea things, and in the end I was >jt able to do anything at all. It took niy •• hole strength to sit up straight in my hair." " You must have been feeble?" " I got still more feeble, and my nervca ■■'irtook in the General Debs l ity of my System. . wns not able to stand anything. No ioises of any kind. 1 should scream. out vith the shock if any unusual sound struck , ny ears. I had silly, nervous terrors of all •orts of things, and as my illness clung close o me a heavy despondency settled upon ue. I began to look upon myself as a .opelcss invalid. I was too low-spirited io take a hopeful view of anything. No •voman, I don't care who sho be, could have elt more wretched than I did." "But the chemists and doctors. Could hey do nothing for you ?" " No, indeed, they couldn't. Chemists I '.vied without number, but they were all .-.:] tires; and lots of medicii.es and pills .•.ore brought to me to try, but nono of these preparations improved my condition any, or .n'tnn ounce of flesh upon iny bones. Two mcti.rs also prescribed lor ine, and attended .:ic for long enough. I gave up the one for *,he other, but neither of them could do me my good, nor did I find their medicines of my more service than the drugs I obtained "rom tho chemists." " Well, how did you go on ?" "For 12 months B hadn't been able to work, but at last 8 got into that state that I couldn't even walk.
