A Remarkable Cure of a Horse. Col. James li. demine a prominent pm eery merchant, a member of the ttrm of Klein* Ins A Lofton, Augusta, Ua„ makes the following statement of the treatment of a valuable horse with Swift’s Specific: In the fall of 1SSSI had a valuable colt taken with a severe case of pinkeye, which resulted iu a most fearful case of blood poisoning 1 have ever seen. After eight or nine months of doctoring with every remedy that I could hear of, I despaired of a cure. At this time the horse was unable to move, because of swollen limbs. His right hind leg was as large as a man’s body, and had on it over forty running sores, lie had also a number of large sores on his body aud other limbs. He was a most pitiable looking object, and 1 was advised to end his sufferings with the shot-gun. He was a valuable animal and 1 did not want to lose him. After racking my brain in search for another remedy more efficacious, I thought of Swift’s Specific. I knew it was Invaluable to the human family as a blood purifier, and why should It not be for the animal as well? I did not hesitate, but sent last July to Atlanta for a supply. I began the treatment with 4 or. of S. S. S. and 4 on. of water three times a day. This I ■ continued for a week. Then 1 increased the dose to 6 os. of each, and continued for a week. Then I Increased to 8 os. and run it a ■ week, when I went back to 6 oa. again. The result was that at the end of the first week the horse had a fair appetite, which he had not had since his sickness. At the end of the second week even great Improvement was apparent, for many of the sores were healiug i nicely, and the horse manifested a de- . sire to move about. At the end of the third week he began to show gain it. flesh and had i full appetite. The swelling had about disappeared. I user! in all about tf> bottles of Swift’s Specific, and when I quit its use the horse had only four small sores left on him, and they healed up immediately. In August last alt symptoms of the disease ; passed away, and up to date no signs of the return of the trouble have made their appeari ance, and the horse has done a mule’s work , on my farm. ’ i regard It one of the mast remarkable cures ‘ I have ever known. Thus this great medicine . has proven a boou to the animal as well as to the human race. J AS. L. FLEMISH. 1 Augusta, Ua., Jan. 9,1888. » ' Send for book on Blood and Skin Diseases It is mailed free.
