It was the same kiud of soap we used at home and we iionght it from : a giof-er around the corner. It occurred to me that I might be ab!e to make sHe money out of that soap. I went around to the groier and askel hini how luncli he paid for that kind ol soati. He tout yie ! cents a ponmi. asktd him if he would buy some from me for H, and he aid he would.

No less than seven . physicians treated me and all gave rue up saying I was in curable. I was absolutely helpless. The whole fam ily wore themselves out ' caring for me. One day ' mother and sister came to in V. bedside, and said I had but a day or two more to live. Tears rolled down their cneeks as tney sobbed the news. The doctors bad declared I was in the last stage, and no human being could save me. 1 was willing to die, but before going to the cruel grave, I wanted to goout and see ray dearly beloved town of Sidney once mo.:c. They told me such a thing was impossible that I would surely die before I got back. But I . insisted, and to gratify my dying wish, a carriage was titled up with a bed of pillows, and to this I was carried and slowly driven around Court House Square. I got home more dead than alive. Through the mercy of Provi dence, someone brought a trial bottle of medicine said to be a consumption cure. No one imagined for an instant it was worth trying. But as a drowning person grasps at a straw, so I tried this medicine. I was better after taking two doses. Mother got more of the medicine and I took it, improving all tine time, Today I am as well as any reader of this paper, and the medicine that cured me was 'Acker's English Remedy for Consumption.
