      CUKES FOU THE UNCUiiED I HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT . —An extrwdinary Cube of Schofula or Kino ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . AlliCay , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Hollo wax . "Sir , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , after a ehort time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which was expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the 6 urgeons said that he would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that licnb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in their uee , the tumour gradually began to disappear , and the lischarg-c from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the astonishment of a large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boy is now ns healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that I should be truly ungrateful were 1 not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .
