war SO completely undermined and broken up that
lost 20 or so pounds of my usual weight. Anxious
to find some relief, resorted to the most approved
| patent medicines 1 used number of bottles of
TOwnsends Sarsaparilla, and exhausted the list of
| Liniments, without any effect. My joints now be-
came enlarged, and the pains in my limbs SO excru-
! cating, that they had to be rubbed two three
times a night The muscles of nv legs were SO con-
tracted that presented the appearance Of man of
sixty-tve when walked. In this condition, more
through curiosity than belief in its good effects,
| commenced tue use of your Beech Drop, and in ten
or twelve days the swelling about joints had SUBJ
sided and now, after the of three bottles, am
able to resume my business, and can walk with the
same ease and comfort that formerly did.
