When twelve months old aiump ‘appeared on her heel, which slowly grew larger. ‘The family physician thought it was caused by a pieoe of broken giase or needle, but failed to bring anything to light. The child became feobler all the time, seeming to lose the use of her leg, and finally quit walking entirely. The middle finger and thumb ot cither hand becaine ealarged,the flesh becoming hard. The bip joints Decame involved, so that when seventeen months old she could not stand, having lost the ‘use of leg andarm. Partia' curvature of the spine also followed. The nervous syatem was wrecked, muscles contracted, and there was general wast- ing of flesh and muscle. At eighteen months of ‘age she was placed under the treatment of = prominent physician of Boston, Mass, but at ‘the end of ten months she had deciin to such & degree that she was in» dying condition. This ‘wasin April, 1866. We took the child away not knowing what todo, In this dreadful dilemma we were over-persuaded by friends to try “one bottle” of Swirr's Srrctric, which wedid, and before it all nad been taken we siw a chance for the better in her symptoms. We kept it up, and have done so to this day, and will keep it up, if the Lord wills, for many days to come. for ithas brought our dying Hazel to life, to visor, to strength and health again, The ashen hue of her checks has changed to rosy tint. She in able to walk anywhere, her languor and melau- choly have passed away, and she is now a blithe, cheerful, happy, romping child.
