[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A Life Guardsman, one of
the Heroes of Waterloo, Cured of Rheumatism by Hol-
loway's Ointment and Pills.—Mr. Thomas Brunton.
landlord of the Waterloo Tavern, Coathani, Yorkshire,
was afflicted for many months with rheumatism and
rheumatic gout ; his legs were dreadfully painfal and
disfigured with colours of every hue, frightful to behold;
for ten weeks he was wholly unable to walk. The treat-
ment he received from several medical men, not only
failing to do him any good, but leaving him, in fact, in a
considerably worse condition. At this juncture Hollo-
way's Pills and Ointment were resorted to, and by their
sole means he has been restored to health and strength.
Sold by all Druggists, and at Professr Holloway's Esta-
blishment, 244, Strand, London.
