The mountain sentinel. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1844-1853, 1852-05-20


az had been afflicted several years with /.
soreness of both eyes, which continued to increase
until last September, $3.50, )the inflammation at
that time having involved the whole lining mem
brane of both eyes, and ended in q deposite of 1
thick film, which wholly destroyed my sight. l
had an operation performed, and the thickeniIg
removed, which soon returned and left me in as
bad condition as before At this stage of the
complaint, made application to several of the
most eminent medical men, who informed ne
that ''my eyes would never get well" At this
time / could not distinguish any object. By the
advice of some friends, | commenced the use of
the Petroleum, both internally and locally, under
which my eys have improved daily until til
present time, and | have recovered my sight en-
trely. My general health was very much i'm
proved by the Petroleum, and L attribute the
restoration of my sight to its use. 1 reside at
No. lO2, Second Street, in this city, and will be
happy to give any information in relation to my
case. WILLIAM HALL"

Another Letter Recommending the Petroleum.
MELVILLE, Cumberland Co. Pa.
Mr.. kIER: Dear Sir-Having been appointed
by your travelling agent, when along last, agents
for the sale of your Petroleum, and fearing it
might tsell rapidly, inasmuch as so much
worthless trash is sold by travelling agents, we
only took two boxes from him, which has ali been
sold. Finding it to sell quite readily and actu-
ally to answer the various purposes for which it
has been recommended, we thought we would
order of you about four boxes more, as there is
still a great demand for it.
In regard to the efficacy of your Petroleum,
we might add, that in every instance, without
exception, where it has been tried, it was found
to give immediate relief, particularly for pains
In the limbs, back, &C., resulting from Bilious
lntermitting Fever, which prevailed in this sec
ton to great extent and IuyaT.i hlu rvas
followed by pains and swelling in the limbs
Your Petroleum, in these cases, without excep-
ton, was found to give immediate relief.
Yours most respectfully,

ABad Case of Infammatory Rheumatism
The following extracts are from letter re
celYed from young gentleman of Middleburg
Summit County, Ohio. They are attested by
Charles Belden and Dr.. Elijah Curtis, of thai
place:
Mr.. KIER: Dear Sir-Gratitude compels me
to express my thanks for the discovery of your
invaluable medicine. | was afflicted with tha
awful and disheartening disease, the Infiamma-
tory Rheumatism, on the 21st of September last,
whilst was IN Cleveland; and was brought
home from that place to Middleburg where lay
on my back for over two months. For three
weeks of this time, l was in the most intense
suffering and agony. l lay with my limbs in
one position, and eould not stir a muscle, nor
have my bed changed. My screams could be
heard all over the neighborhood, so intense was
my suffering. When every other remedy proved
valueess, l had recourse TO your invaluable
Petroleum, of which | had made but three appli-
cations, until I commenced to get better fused
altogether bat two bottles and a half, and am
now well. l can get any number of persons to
testify to the above facts, if necessary.
