an Ia portsnt topic serves TO awaken additional in
terest therein sit proyokes new inquiry and leads
70 the establishment OF profoUndeC convictions.
And where it Is Of the nature Of the foi,osinS
which shows that lots OF Chicago people swesr by
1t" must contain something OF reai and substan-
tal importsnce to The general public. Thus
thought ths writer because OF constantly hearing
every wbt in this sra st city OF the almost p;rAca-
lous power OF the st. Jacobs OIL
But the wonderful popularity 6. the grea. Ger
man tnledy is not con fined alone Ner York and
adjacent cities. Ii seems to be as well known in
the ereat West as in the East The reporter scci-
densaliy met friend from the West at The Grand
Union Hotel the other evening: Mr.. Chss w Hull
Of Eeb., who doing New York. In the course
Of conversation the great German remedy and
its wonderful performances were incidentally
mentioned by the scribe. Mr.. Hull at once said
that be WAS familiar with the remedy, and knew II
to be medicine Of the highest merit, aud one
Mat had wrought cures within the SCOPE of his
own personal observation. which. il they had &C
Cured at earlier Period OF the worlds history
would have been put down 70 the ere 1it Of magic
or been regarded miracles He thou sbt
from what he knew OF the action Of st. Jacobs
Oil. that it is Justly entitled to be called the
greatest remedy in the world. His attention
vas first called to lis wonderful curative power
by tie case Of Dir. John s. Briggs, q well known
citizen Of Omaha. Nebraska, who wss terribly
afflicted with an acute attack OF rheumatism in
hls BACK The disease, which had been preyinc
upon him for years, had drawn him ont Of shape.
he had rfeorted to every remedy known 10
the ply slctans, but found relief until lie tr!, d
ST. Jacobs OIL one bottle of which eaes ted CON-
ple!e and radical cure. Another case continued
Mr.. Hull, of vhch have cognizance, was that of q
soldier at Fort Omaha. This cure was really won
derful. The poor fellow contracted rheumatism in
his knees. His sutferings were positively p.tiable
lie not only could not walk. but his limbs were 80
sore and sensitive that he could not bear the pres
sure OF his clothing, He was certai nly in a most
horrible condition. Imagine. then. the transition
from such condition TO one of entire freedom
from pain and the ability to walk about IS he
pleased. Marvellous to relate he was cured by sew
eral Applications of ST. Jacobs Oil and that to- so
quickly that the poor fellows comrades could hard
ly comprehend the change. II WAS as if the tails
manic words Of presto chaaye had made him whole
again.
The next instance Of the power of this truly
wonderful healer that can recall was the cure of
3 lady friend OF mine in Chicago whose name I
will not mention. This lady was Confined TO her
bed fora long time with rheumatism. The doctors
exhausted their skill il trying to give her relief,
but to no purpose. Her friends began to despair
OF ever seeinE her well again. She grew so i'll
that she could not turn herself In bed, and had 10
be lifted about with the most tender care by her
muse Strange 10 say she began to improve from
tie very first application of ST. Jacobs o. which
tried dS3ljer ,,s>a,t by her family, aud in
q very short tine after beginning theuse of the
remedy she entirely restored The lady is
now well and in splendid spirits, she is very
pretty, sweet and popular girl, and her illness
excited great sympathy among.her wide circle Of
friends. Her marvellous cure caused BIZ seusa-
ton among those who heard Of il, and there are
lots Of people low living In Chicago, who swear
by the great German remedy as tie be-ali and the
cure-au. 1t
