A MODERN MIRACLE
"Truly miraculous seemed the recovery
of Mrs. Mollie Holt of this place," writes
J. O. R. Hooper, Woodford. Tenn.. "she
was so wasted by coughing up pus from
her lungs. Doctors declared her end so
n:ar that her family had watched by her
bed-side forty-e g!it hours; when, at my
urgent request Dr. King's Nev Discovery
was given her, and with the astonishing
result that improvement began, and con
tinued until she finally completely recov
ered, and is a healthy woman today."
