DR.. HAML1N:-When I met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf-
fering severelywith Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at time to my bed. The balance of the
time 1 was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless Asto what
| suffered, the English language cannot tell
1t to any one who has not tried its realities.
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled nv
doubts in twenty-four hours. I used a bottle
day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenI have not used them, and can now
split a cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian. Some of my friends at first thought
such a sudden cure would KLINE but wanted
change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how I
nave been, l viii say, when commenced
using WIZARD Oil, l could reach around nv
! leg above the knee with one hand.
was reduced to a mere Sl,a,a-
ton, and most of the time
when L moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them, L could not raise
either foot from the floor.
used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. l now feel as well a.
ever did in my lie, and have gained thirty-fvt
pounds in flesh. But must tell you it seem:
almost like a dream. You can refer to me a!
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi
Gems of Adrian will testify to the truth Of
my statements.
