The X>ailv Review. Towanda, Pa., Wednesday, April 27, 1881. BDITORS . S. W. ALVORD. NOBLE N. ALVORD. " Raily Review" only D 5 cenlt per month. Try it. A Remarkable Cure. The Philadelphia Sunday Press relates the following most remarkable cure late ly wrought in that city : Another case, still lingering in this city, is much better authenticated and mnch more marvelous, measured by ac cepted standards of medical knowlecge. Willard L. Adams, son of Samuel Adams of Harrisburg, is the patient. Providence has dealt unkindly with him in many re spects. The only child of wealthy par ents and nurtured with all the care that such conditions imply, three serious ac cidents have threatened his life. A blow on his head rendered necessary trepan ning and the extraction of a portion of the bone from his brain. While a stu dent at the State Normal College he fell from a third-story window upon an as phalt pavement. It only shook him up at the time, although subsequent troubles are probably traceable to that accident. Early last winter, while clerking in the carpet warehouse of of the Dobson Broth ers,a sportive colaborer dropped a roll of carpet three-stories down 011 his back, nearly breaking it. The ultimate morbif ic effect of all these accidents may be de scribed as fistulous: Two months ago young Adams was bedridden with a growth which seemed to be at once schir rhous and sebaceous. Ordinary remedies did not even check its progress. The ab normal excrescence grew so rapidly that the patient was forced to lie upon his stomach, and for the mouth prior to last Sunday had occupied no other position. The purulent matter contained iu the sac had been removed once when an effusion occurred which was so extensive and rap id that Dr. Coover of Harrisburg was driven to despair. He announced to the anxious mother that there was only one chance in a hundred of prolonging the boy's life for a week and that chance rest ed on a surgical operation of lasting con sequences. The best surgeons of this city had been engaged to perform the op eration, when Mrs. Adams set her mind upon trying what she had little faith in— Dr. Flower's treatment. Mr. Samuel Adams, the father, carpet man and State contractor of Harrisburg was not easy to move in the direction of the new treat ment, but reluctantly consulted Dr. Flow er on Sunday, April 10. "Bring your boy to the city to-morrow and I'll treat him," Dr. Flower said. "How cau we do that?" the father ask ed. "He can lie only on his stomach,and when bathing the morbid spot produces painful spasms." Dr. Flower wrote a prescription for a lotion which used did not produce the spasm but rendered the part so easy that he could bear removal, and on Monday, April 11, he was brought to this city. Here the story of young Adams, as told yesterday, will complete the narrative. "My journey hither was very painful," he said, "although every comfort was provided. Dr. Flower met us at the Girard House. 'I tell you before you be gin that you cannot help me,' I said as he laid his hand on the unnatural growth. I was conscious then, but when he touched the tumor I had aspasm. When I recov ered consciousness, his hand was still on the tumor. 1 felt a prickling sensation not only in the tumor put in my right leg which had been useless and painful for weeks. Mother timed, aud at the end of a half hour I was in a profuse perspira tion. Next day Dr. Flower relieved the sac of the purulent matter—about a cup ful. It has decreased in size until now it is hardly noticeable. His treatment consists only of manipulation twice a day and two baths a day. I am able to be about, to sit down as usual, and hope soon to be as well as ever." Every point of the boy's story was cou firmed by the mother, who shares her sou's absolute faith iu the supernatural powers of the healer. As said before, Dr. Flower speaks very modestly of this cure. "Sometimes in a room with blue glass windows and one yellow pane, I can, when placing my hands on a patient see the morbid mat ter ascending like a yellow exhalation. 1 don't pretend to account for it, I only know it is so." At the last session of Congress an act was passed appropriating #30,000 to erect a monument to the memory of •Oeorge Washington, at his birthplace in Virginia. Secretary Blaine authorized Messrs. Howe and Dodd, architects of Boston to prepare working drawings and estimates of the cost of erection. Gen. Malione's caudidate for Sergeant at-Arms of the Senate has offered to re tire if the General will consent to name some well-known Kepublican soldier who was on the Union side during the rebel lion. But the suggestion was not favor ably received, and Mr. Riddleberger will therefore continue the candidate. The offer, however was creditable to him. Business Cards.
