Persons who have been confined to their

have been quoted by the leading journals
OF our country; for instance: The st. Louis
Post Dispatch says: Under the title Of Old
Probabilities, one of the most useful and
valuable officers of the u. 8. Govesn-
ment, is most widely known. But quite as
well known is Prof. j. H. Tice, the meteo-
rologist Of the Mississippi Valley, whose con-
tributions to his favorite study have given
him an almost national reputation. On a re-
cent tour through the Northwest. the Pro-
lessor had a narrow escape from the serious
consequences OF q sudden and very danger
GUS illness, the particulars of which he thus
refers to: The day after concluding my
course of lectures at Burlington, Iowa, on
21st OF December last, 1 was seized with
o sudden attack OF neuralgia in the chest,
giving me the most excruciating pain
and almost preventing breathing. My
pulse, usually eighty, fell to thirty-five; in
tense nausea of the stomach succeeded, and
cold, clammy sweat covered my entire
body. The attending physician could do
nothing to relieve me; after suffering for
three hours, I thought-as had been using
st. Jacobs OIL with good effect for rheumatic
pains-I would try 1t. I saturated piece of
flannel large enough to cover my chest, with
the OIL, and applied 1t. The relief was al
most instantaneous. In one hour was en-
tirely free from pain, and would have taken
the train to fill an appointment that night in
. neighboring town, had my friends not
dissuaded me. As 1t was took the night
train for my home, St. Louis, and have
not been troubled since.-The Boston
Globe says: Chas. 8. Strickland, Esq, Build
er, No. Boylston street and 106 Harrison
avenue, Boston, thus speaks: The pleasure
which hereby attempt to express, can only
be half conveyed by words. Physicians. of
very high char acter and notoriety have here
tofore declared my rheumatism incurable.
Specifics almost numberless, have failed to
cure or even alleviate the intensity of the
pain, which has frequently confined me to my
room for three months Mt . tune. One week

cannot find words to convey my praise and
gratitude to the discoverer OF this king OF

Harvey, ESQ.,, who has been q resident of
Chicago for over twenty years. Mr.. Harvey
expressed himself on the "oil subject" as
follows: al have spent over q, 600 70 cure

very glad to have this opportunity of testt-

speak too highly Of 1t, and would be recreant

voice in its praise. "-The Philadelph Ledger
says: Mr.. George L Graham, $40 Nineteenth
street. Philadelphia, is journalist OF many
years experience, and is actively connected
with the Philadelphia Sunday Mirror, lead
ing theatrical and musical journal. During
the "late oupleasantness'' Mr.. Graham was
Captain of Company K, One Hundred and
Eighty-third Pennsylvania Regiment and
through exposure in the field he contracted q
variety Of ills, and he says a very troublesome
case OF rheumatism in the right leg and foot
was q war inheritance that he had in vain
tried to get rid OF, until he was recommended
to try est Jacobs OIL" He states that he felt
q slight relief even on the first application OF
the Oil Before the first bottle he purchased
had been used up he had but few traces of
his rheumatism, and at this time he says the
disease has entirely left him, which he at
tributes entirely to the use of St. Jacobs OIL.

IL is worth its weight In gold THE Chicago
Ausr- Ocean says: Capt. Paul Boyton, the
world-renowncd swimmer, thus speaks of the
Old German Kennedy: From constant
exposure l am somewhat subject to
rheumatic pains, and nothing would
ever benefit me, until got hold OF
this Old German Remedy. Why, on my
travels have met people who had
been suffering with rheumatism for years;
by my advice they tried the on, and It cured
them. would sooner do without food for
days than be without this remedy for one
hour. In fact would not attempt . trip
without St. Jacobs Oh as I do not see how
could get along without 1t. ST. Jacoba on
has been Endorsed by persona Of national
reputation; who would not lend their names
II they were not convinced that Il was duty,
they owed to suffering humanity; they have
experienced the wonderful effect Of the
great German remedy and they want their
fellow creatures to know the result We
would only mention In this connection the
