Of opium. Every joint was swellsd 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
to 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 H. G. FARRELL'S ARABIAN
