We desire TO coll the particular attention Of

The senior editor of this paper, during the
last winter and present spring, suffered so
much from Rheumatism that he was unable at
times TO walk or stand upon his feet. or even
hange his position in bed without assistance
A part Of bottle cured him in few days
His son was also afflicted with the same dread
full complaint, and suffered the most excrutia.
ting pain until an application of the Embroca.
lion was made, which effected an entire cure
Col. Minor Of this city, also had severe
attack Of Rheumatism this spring from which
he suffered severely, and which confined him
to his bed for several weeks. Nothing gave
him any relief until he sent to Rocheport, for
ty miles, and procured a bottle of this medi-
cine, which expelled his pains almost nstantly.
Mr.. Myers ought to have an agent in every
county in the State, with which this med
;cne should be deposited for sale. We repeat
our honest conviction, for the benefit of those
suffering with Rheumatism, that one bottle of
this medicine will cure the most violent case
that can be found.-Msiropolitan.
