For many years past have been a suf-
ferer from Chronic Rheumatism, and few
weeks since my attack was unusually se-
we're. was deprived of sleep for several
nights, SO acute was my pain from this
disease. My knees were stiff, so much SO
that locomotion was difficult, and was
only able to get to my office by the aid Of
two canes. Mr. e p Peck, correspondent
of the press, who is well known to me, mo-
ticed my condition and recommend me to
try Durang's Rheumatic Remedy. On his
representation called upon you at your
store and purchased bottle eff the Rene
dy, and have only to say in my case its
effect upon me was wonderful. A few
doses enabling me to sleep soundly at
night, removing partially the Stiffness of
the knee joints, and one bottle relieving
The stiffness entirely, and as have not had
a return of the disease since, | hope it is
totally eradicated from my system by the
use Of one bottle of your remedy.
Respectfully,

sic herb. If rats enter the cellar lit

.saturate rag with cayenne in solution
and stuff it into the hole, which can be

N rat or mouse will eat that rag for
