Cincinnati, December 16.—Oaa of the mra.it uud moat daugeroua operations m ,|. e Miope of sih'Kery baa lately been m r- fornifcd at the Omeinnati hospital, it j;,:. slated In removing about tlivoo indie., of the backbone and exposing the spinal cord. The patient >vas a young colored man, about 21 years ol age. When first ad mitted to the hospital he was sufl'erimr from a terrible disease, which had broken cut over the hoad, neck, and . aok in the form of largo abscesoes, the chief one of which was about the tnlddlo of the back mul had eaten away the buckbone to a con siderable extent. The poor fellow could not lie in a recumbent posture nor on his side in consequence of the extreme, pain attending sued a position, and was com pelled to lie all the while on his face. Slowly ho had lost the power of motion and of sensation in his legs, so that he whs completely paralyzed from the body down. ft was decided that his only chance lay in an operation for a removal of a part of the backbone so as to stop the process of decay. He was then turned on his face and the surgeon made an incision down the spine. A large quantity of pus was re vealed, and the cavity was sponged out carefully in order to seo just where the knife was going. Xu this region, where one slip of the knilb or one false move would have been fatal to the patient, the surgeon with a chisel and hammer went down on the bone until he cut out all that which was in any way affected, never touching the spinal cord. All causes of suppuration ana paralvsis were removed, and the surgeon felt assured power would return to the paralyzed legs, and that time would accomplish the filling up of the place where the bone had formerly been. The patient recovered from the ether and was placed in bed on his face. In three days motion returned to his legs, and he was able to move his feet for the first time in nearly a year. About the same time sensation began to return to the limbs. In about three weeks he could bear some weight on his legs, and at the same time he assumed the position on his breast and knees which he has kept ever since. He at length became strong enough to stand, with assistance, and lake a step or two. He is now able to walk to tue end of the ward and sit down in a chair with comfort. Of course his back is yet weak, and probably never will regain its former power, but he will be a useful man. The wound has greatly closed up, leaving only a slight scar, and causes him little or no pain. Malaria. Twenty-five hundred dozen bottles o! Ague Conqueror ordered in one month.

The colonel’s place is up on the mourners’ beuoh.—Kansas City Times. Cancer for Kivo Years. The interests of humanity seem to de mand the publication of the following facts: Two months ago my attention was ■called to the case of a poor woman who was said to be afflicted with a cancer. I found her with an ulcer on her shoulder at least five inches in circumference, angry, painful and giving the patient no rest day or night for six mouths. I obtained a supply of Swift’s Specific, which I per suaded her to try. She has taken five bot tles, the result of which is that the ulcer is entirely healed up, nothing remaining but a small scab not larger than one’s fin ger nail, and her general health is better than for five years past. She seems to be perfectly cured. I consider its effects wonderful—almost miraculous. Rev. Jesse H. Campbell, Columbus, Ga. Poisoned with Potash and Mercury Is the tale of a large percentage of sick people in the world—such a largo number, »n fact, that it is hard to tell whether there are not as many victims to this mineral Poisoning as to diseases of the blood and skin. “I took potash,” said one, “and while it Partially dried up the eruption temporari ly, it came near drying up my vitality for Jll time. It drove the disease in my sys tem, only to break out again on some other Part of my body.” . To such sufferers Swift’s Specific is the fomedy which is wortti more than nil the World besides. It drives out the poison oi blood taint, eliminates this mineral poison und builds up the general health. Be sure to get the genuine, and send tor Treatise on Blood and Skin diseases, free.
