ir .agen for the sale cfthe Poiadelphs. or India E1
tract. at albany.
Dear SRA female relative of my family, who has
resided with for many years had been long affiic
ed with racking palms, sometimes in joint and some
times in another, but most frequently in the wrists
shoulders knees, and ANGLES, and sometimes in the
breast. frequently shifting from enc to another, each
day bringing with additional weight Of misery de.
prving her of rest day and night, attended with loss of
appetite, lowness Of Spirits &C. which her physician
termed inveterate rheumatism, without being able to
give the least relief Under these circumstances we
were determined to try the Posdepbis, or India Ex-
tract which you advertised agent the proprietor,
the effects uf which far exceeded my most sanguine
expectations. Before she used one box, her pains in
great measure left her. her appetite returned, and by
using three boxes according to the direction, she is
under the smiles of Divine Providence restored to her
usual state of good health. This being remarkable
cure, under the distressing circumstances plainly
proves the importance OF that most valuable med
cine. Since the above cure has been performed, my
phy stefan informed me he had himself recommended
and used it in many obstinate chronic and nfiamma
tor, rheumatic affections with the hspp:st effects
therefore can, with confidence, recommend IT 10 all
who are laborng under the rheumatism in every stage
of the disc ,se and it, my opinion. this medicine was
introduced into the arm, and navy it would be last
ing benefit suffering humanity and promote the int.
rest of the service. DE TT CLINTON.
