WONDERFUL AND EXTRAORDINARY CURE
OF RHEUMATISM OF TWENTY YEARS, STANDING

"OANOhlC OL AMI EXTRAORDINARILY CURE
OF RHEUMATISM OF TWENTY YEARS STANDING.
Never in my life have had SO much pleasure in do
ing any thing as in giving this certificate to the
world and hope it may be the cause of thousands
OF my fellow creatures being relieved from that
dire disease, rheumatism My wife has been afflicted
with 1t for twenty years, most of the time suffering
excruciatng pains in every part of her body. Hav-
ing no appetite whatever, she was reduced to all
most skeleton. So violent were the pains that
she seldom could sleep without taking large doses
of opium. Every joint was swelled very much, and
her knees, hands, and neck, covered with large
Jumps. She could do no kind Of work. the sinews
and muscles being SO hard and contracted that her
limbs were drawn together, that she was obliged
te be in bed constantly. In this condition she had
been for twenty years. without ever getting anyre-
lief from every thing she used. until she com.
menced the use of II. G. FARRELL'S ARABIAN
LINIMENT, the first bottle of which produced a
great change She has now used five bottles, and
the swellings have nearly all gone down; pain has
entirely left her; she sleeps well and soundly; s
more fieshy than ever she was in her life; has an
excellent appetite, aud spins and sews all day.
By the use of few bottles more she mnst be as
well as ever she was. II any one Doubts this won
derful cure, he has only TO call at my residence
near Peoria, and learn the circumstance from my
wifes own lips, he can further inquire Of any OF
my neighbors.
