Consequently it would natural take some time for
anything to make an imr ress,on. and it was three
or four weeks before the st Jacobs OIL began to
tell on the disease in any marked degree, although

ming the applications. You can judge something

rheumatism Upon my recommendation they used
aremedy equal to it. Its effect up IN me has been
wonderfully healing. recommend it right along
to every body who has any kind of pain"
Passing down Pennsylvania avenue the reporter
Dropped in at Harveys for lunch. While convere-
ms With Mr.. Andrew Barns, who runs the cigar
stand In that popular restaurant, the fact cropped
ont that the great German remedy was also known
in that house az wonderful healer. Mr.. Barns
said it was wonderful remedy for rheums tsm.
Last winter he had rheumatism in his right leg,
and. by reason of the fact that he much in the
draught from the constantly opening doors he
found 1t hard to control. While he did not say
anything about his trouble to any one and kept at
his pest, still his sufferinas we're sometimes SO
great as to almost make him cry out. he finally
used the st. Jacobs Oil, and six applications COM
pletely cured him. He thinks 1t grand remedy
and can recommend 1t as 3 speedy and sure cure
for Rheumatic pain.
EaunterinR through the Capitol, the man o.
news accosted Mr. B. j. Cady, one OF the guides of
the building, who Ia popular with visitors and who
by his courteous manners has won the esteem Of
numerous strangers. Mr.. Cady said he lad heard
a great deal about the wonderful power OF the st.
Jacobs OIL in controlling pain and he had re.
Gently had occasion to note the truth of what
said about the remedy by It's effects upon men,
Der OF his family. His mother in law, Mrs. Zim-
norman, residing at No. CAB E. Capitol street. fel
down stairs four weeks ago, and was severely hurt
since which time she has had very bad pain in
remedies without getting relief, and has endured
much suffering. few days ago ehe commenced
ufinR the st. Jacobs OIL on her shoulder. She ex-
perienced relief Immediately aud WAS about we'll.
The Oil acted like magic He had heard some Of
the men employed about the Capitol building
speak Of the st. jacobs Oil SO a fine curative power
He has also heard friends in the city refer to the
ST. Jacobs Oil as the king Of pain.
The next gentleman called on was Capt G. ".
Rogers, who stated that he had had some satisfac.
tory experience with the st. Jacobs OIL. Captain
Rogers, who lives at the Emmett house. said that
he Was Lieutenant Commando during the late
war in the United States Navy. and contracted
severe cold from long exposure on the Red river.
fiEce that time he has suffered constant pain in his
hips. He has been treated by physicians for rheu.
matism. but it has never been clear to his mind
that it is rheumatism. The other day he thought
he would try the st. Jacobs Oil. as ali things else
had for twenty years failed to give him relief and
the German remedy was reputed to be the cham
pion pain cure. He applied 1t to one hip and, in
order to test its merits quickly, applied it to the
hip which always gave him the most pain. The
re snh was magical. he never had anything to
give him such relief. At the time OF the interview
be had only applied the Oil twice. and the pain was
practically queled, while the other hip upon which
he had not used 1t was very painful. Having
tested the oil fairly, Captain Rogers said he in
tended to employ it on both hips hereafter regu-
larry until he is completely restored. He has not
the sightest doubt Of III innate recovery. and he
believes it will only be question OF few days
when he shali realize himself well man.
1t is thus the people talk about the great curative
properties Of the St Jacobs Oil. and it is manifest
that the German remedy is effective and popu-
lar. 1t
