The following interviews elected by 9
Plain Dealer reporter show beyond reason
able doubt that the preparation in question
is really an article of high merit-in fact q
reliable specific for great number of dis.
tressing complaints. The character and
standing of the gentlemen interviewed
many Of them occupying prominent official
positions-together with the hearty in.
dorsement they accord the remedy, from
their own experience and observation,
ought to commend it to every one Fair
minded people will agree, we think, with
the proprietors, that there is nothing un.
mercantile or unprofessional in bringing
the article to the notice of the public
through the medium of the press.

the Cleveland Detective Force, was ap-

l was finally laid up with it, 1 hardly ex.
pected to leave my bed for months. Doc
tors failed to benefit me, and acting on the
suggestion of a friend, procured bottle
Of st. Jacobs Oil and received surprising
relief on the first application. I could
plainly feel the effects of the preparation
from the start. 1t heated the flesh, and
seemed to find its way to the seat Of the
disease at once TO be brief. it completely
conquered all pain, and in day or two
was entirely free from the complaint and
have since remained So" ....l,a
John Vanek. ESQ.,, first Assistant City

more of St. Jacobs Oil than all other lini
