Some of the most wonderful cures that have ever come under my notice in a lifetime of obser- vation I have seen here in Ta- coma. Sulphurro has completely captured this city and its vicinity, and the people here show a su- Preme faith in ite powers, because they have had visual demonstra- tion of the new medicine's works. In traveling up and down the Pacific coast as a newspaper cor- respondent T have made a particu- Var get { Sulphurro'a | accom- plishments, and [ desire to outline some: of ‘the mo remarkable cases that IT have investigated right here in this olty, Rose.is one of the most known business men of rn Washington, He was af- to o- come that tt was almost cutting off the alr passage leading to the lungs. A little more and it would have put a stop to all his aotivi- tes, Tacoma Man Fact Death. Mr, Rose had consulted spoctat- ists from nd near without re-~ sult. He npelled to give up his business, though he had led a Particularly active life. He wel dom left his home, Naturally enough, life seemed to hold out for him no further charms. ‘He was awaiting the one possible out- come. Through a friend he heard of Sulphurro before the medicine was put upon the market by Mr. CM. C, Stewart. Direct from Mr. Stew- art he obtained some of the new Sulphur remedy, believing that if the blood was put in proper eon- dition the potson of the goltre would be held in check, if not oo pletely eliminated. Other suff ers from goltre had found relief in Sulphurro. From the first, improvement be- Gan, and today Mr. Kose is com- aay cured. He ts back attend- ing to business, and is one of the happlest men in Tacoma. He is a living demonstration of what Sul- phurro will do when it is used ac- cording to directions, Mr. Rose ts Past 60 years old, “T feel like a youth of 20," he sald to me, with a smile that min- sled joy, gratitude and many other emotions, The light of life was upon Mr. Rose's face; not the shadow of the Reaper. | Hundreds of people have since become friends of Sulphurro through Mr. Rose's efforts, Yet this man had been given up as incurable by some of the leading specialists of the timb. What may we not expect of a medicine that makes such a won- dorful demonstration of its power? A prominent society woman of Tacoma was affiteted with an ex- ophthalmic goitre similar to that of Mr. Rose, and in addition for years had suffered with a fibroid tumor, Her cage, too, had been wiven up as hopeless. ‘Today this woman ig strong and well—the picture of health. T may say. Both her affilction« have. disapepared The agent? Sulphurro. Woman Celebrates Recovery. These two cases have attracted wide attention in Tacoma, but there are scores of others, There is a woman living just to the ard of the city, in the direc- f Olympia, She had been len for years with what seemed like a hopeless case of rheumatiam. Sulphurro was ree- ommended to her by some one who had been cured of rheumatiam, and she began taking the new medi- cine, The other day she celebrated her recovery to perfect health by cook- ing a dinner for a number of her friends who drove nine miles out from the city to spend the day at her home. One of the higher officers of the ma police department was letely cured of a partioutarly ® case of rheumatism by Sul- —and very quickly cured, A well known professional nurse who has traveled extensively through this tefritory, tells of the cane of the wife of & hotel pro- prietor in Aberdeen, who was ‘od likewise, her suffering also ng caused by Rheumatism.
