Reeds Rheumatic Lininlcnt.

ITHStlE great success which has ATTENDED me ap'
plication Of tins Liniment induces me 10 ofief
il TO the public, with renewed confidence, as a safe
and chectuaI remedy for Rheumatism. SPrains,
Earns, and Pains Of eerykiad, arising from vIo-
lence or otherwise, also as one oil the b~estremeuies
for swollen glands from sore threats or other eau
ses-and here | would say that in cases OF sore
throat, connected with Scarlet Fever, this Liniment
has produced wosderful effects by a single appiica
ton, and | believe, il applied in time, il would be a
complete barrier to the fatal effects OF that distress
sing disease likewise as q remedy for old sores
and ulcers, by removing all cxtraneous matter,
thereby enabling the part affected to renew It's
healthful actions. 1t also acts as a charm t0brui-
ses, giving immediate relief; indeed it may be used
in all local affections where external applications
can avail. It's a%ctionis mild, free from any unplea-
SAINT sensations, and yet so powerful, and penctra'
ting, as to iufase its remedial qualities, frequently
in "a few minutes, through the whole part Affected.
Where the affection has been OF long standing tie
cure must not be expected Immediately; bat II OF
recent attack, its curative effects are instantly felt.
So quick are its benefits, that persons who have
been 80 seriously afflicted with Rheumatic aifec-
lions that they were confined to their beds, and
thereby rendered useless TO themselves and others,
on making one application in the evening, have
found themselves so much relieved by morning as
to be- able to attend to their business. But the
best test, and lhc only way to prove its good quail
ties, is to try it,. Do this, and proof positive will
be afforded Of its valuable effects. All necessary
directions will accompany each phial. To agents,
