A Wonderful Rscord.


Myriads of so-called specifics and
''cures" for rheumatism have already
been brought before the public, and
many of them have even been endorsed
by the certificates of respectable and
prominent citizens, who have derived
benefit from such preparations. There
IS no doubt that great many of these
"Liniments," Oils" etc, so widely ad-
Vertised and freely recommended for
rheumatism and painful complaints of
similar nature, have genuine merit and
will relieve certain types of the CON-
plants named; but when rheumatism,
neuralgia, and kindred diseases, have be-
come chronic and threaten serious re-
suits, you may rest assured that they
will help but very little. Although not
recommended as "infallible," the pecu-
liar qualities of st. Jacobs Oil especially
adapt 1t to those cases which may be
termed chronic" and which have pre-
vlously withstoOd all known specifics"
as well as the prescriptions of the best
physicians.
We would mention, as an example, the
case of Mr.. A. Heilman, editor of the
Pittsburgh Republican, who suffered
with rheumatism for two years. After
vainly using all the best recommended
remedies and eXhausting the skill of the
hANoS hlluOuI
even temporary relief, it required only
two bottles of st. Jacobs Oil to effect a
permanent cure. Mr. c. Hanni, a we'll
known citizen of Youngstown, Ohio, Sc
cured for his wife, who for twelve years
had been a constant sufferer from neural
gia in the head, the services of the ablest
physicians of the land, but they were un-
able to do anything for her; half bot
tie of st. Jacobs Oil cured her. Mr..
VIM. Reiahardt, Gilmore, Wis, reports
the case of a neighbor who for twenty
four years had suffered so terribly with
rheumatism that, at times, he could hard
ly move around few bottles of st. ia
cobs Oil cured him. To cap the eli
max, however, Mr.. A. Neiger, of Taylor
vile, Pa, writes that his mother, who
had been continual sufferer with rheu-
matism for the past thirty years, usud
one bottle of st. Jacobs Oil and was i'm
mediately relieved of all pain These
are results which truly deserve to be
brought to public notice; but they are
not exceptions, as will be seen by the nu-
merons other certificates from all parts
of the United States. 1t should be the
duty of every one to call the attention of
his suffering friends and neighbors to
this wonderfully efficacious preparation,
especially as the low price of so cents
bottle places it within reach OF all per-
sons, rich and poor. w5t1
