DR.. Notwithstanding last three bottles OF
your Blood Purifier and the ~ccompanvine
Pills, have relieved me of Che last vestiee OF
my rheumatism. 1 consider the cure ali but
miraculous. After having suffered the most
acute agony, almost without intermission, for
eight years, and being for three years a cripple,
1 can scarcely realize the fact that at this mo-
ment, after having used your Scandinavian
Remedies for only three months and a few DAYS,
I am a hale, hearty man, capable of manual
labor. and entirely free from pain. When l
first applied to you, by letter, for a supply of
your medicines, 1 was little better than a an
n%atical skeleton. For more than W years 1
had never enjoyed one hour of unbroken night
rest, and my mind sinking with my body, had
become greatly enfeebled, the very first bottle
of the Purifier wrought q surprising change for
the better in my system, and after taking that
wonderful restorative, together with the Blood
Pills, for one month, 1 felt that a complete re-
generation of every animal function was in
progress. l was not deceived. 1 am now, at
81 years CT age. as free from every symptom of
rheumatism as 1 was at 20. There can be no
doubt that this wonderful cure is due to your
remedies alone, and 1 am willing, if it will
serve you or induce others to seek relief from
the same source, that this letter shouldb. made
public.
