      CURES FOR THE UNCURED ! HOLLO WAY'S OINTMENT . —An extuaordinary Curb of Scbofula or King ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . Alliday , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Hollo way . " Sir , —My eldesi son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An emiueot medical man pronounced it aa 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 , aud 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 GeDtlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the 8 urgeons said that he would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In tins desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , and the Jischarge 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 th « truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boyis now as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that 1 should be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .
