the use of the medicine known as Swift's Syphili

or heard of an instance of failure to cure when pro
perly token. In 1835 Georg Walker bought at auc

this remedy, and cured him Bound and well in four
weeks. Bight years afterwards he said the boy had
never had any return of the disease or lost a day
