OF the entire system by three weeks use Of the
sH ESl& - Scandinavia Remedies
Statement OF Andrew Johnson:
About thirteen years since arrived in this
country from Christiana, Norway, and confused
in far health until about wel,e years since when
the diseases common to our western country be-
gan to attack me, such az fever aud ague, gener-
al debility, weakness of the digestive organs
&C; in tact, was, as the common phrase 10,
"sick all over.'' Nevertheless, my cIrcumstan
ces compelled me to 60 to work in Lake Superior
Cooper Nine, Lake Superior. Here / met a
browning disaster, having tall OF many feet and
striking ~upon my bead, having the effect of be-
numbng II were the muscles and perves of my
legs and arms SO thar fora long time could hard
ly move. Finally got that could hobble
about with a cane, but almost dspalTed OF ever
getting well, and here is the astounding and to
me gratifying fact that three weeks ago 1 CON-
menced the use of the Scandinavian Remedies,
and am now able 10 walk easily without a cane,
and feel we'll generally.

was, that both Ices being occupied, no opportuni-
