ALLEGED CANCER CURE.
A lady contributor to the Rural New Yorker writes : —Four years ago I learned a remedy for cancer, which I have never known to fail in effecting a cure. It came to my knowledge in this manner : A lady, at who house I was slopping, had a sister whoso face was terribly disfigured the nose being almost entirely gone, and the throat so much eateu away that the girl could not speak in any way intelligible to any but those accustomed to her. These sores were all healed, and had been for years, and them was now no appearance of eruptions, or any impurities of the blood. She was so disfigured that it would almost have seemed a mercy not to have saved her life, but she was an example of what the medicine could effect. White I was at this lady’s house, 1 met a gentleman who I happened to know had been afflicted with a cancer, which had caused him much anxiety, He had recently spent some time ia New York under toe treatment cf a celebrated cancer doctor, but without ob f aining relief I informed the lady of these facts, and she gave this receipt. This was four years ago. I saw the gentleman a few months since and inquired about the c mcer. The reply was, ‘ Oh, it gives mo no trouble : If I have any fear of it, I take a little of Mrs S.’s medicine, and it is all right.’ I have an aunt between 50 and 60 years old, who has had an internal cancerous tumor, causing her much suffering, and rendering her for much of the time unable to woik. She has been treated by many eminent, physicians, and has spent hundreds of dollars, but all to little purpose. For the last few months she has been taking this medicine, and says she has not been so well for years. I might mention other cases, but perhaps these will be sufficient, I have ntvei- known it to fail in a single instance to cure impurities of the blood, whether cancerous or otherwise, 1 wish I could inspire in others the same confidence which I feel, for I am certain it would mitigate a vast amount of suffering. Cancer cure ; 2 ozs of sulphur, £ oz of quicksilver, loz of cream of tartar, |oz of saltpetre. Put into a pint of molasses, stir, take a tablespoonful before going <o bed. For outside application : One bottle of British oil, loz of red precipitate. The sulphur and quicksilver must be thoroughly mixed for a long time in a druggist’s mortar, and then the other ingredients added. I wish this could be published in every paper in the land, and that in after years I could have the satisfaction of knowing that many have been s aved from horrible suffering and death by its
