GOING ASTRAY.
HOW PEOPLE LOSE THEMSELVES.

Cincinnati Enquirer
The time is now upon Us when every free.
born American citizen holds it as lis bounden
duty to "go somewhere" Now, the mater nal
head of the household daily accosts pater-
fdmilias with the question My dear,
where will we spend the heated term?' and
the above. mentioned p. E., thinking with
horror on last summers vacation, and how the
healthy and invigorating mountain air "
(per hotel advertisement aggravated bis
rheumatism, which at the time was aggrava.
ting enough, tells his spouse that for his part
he will spend his time at home.
We heartily agree with the old geht ia this
case. We have tried both ways; we have
sought for health and pleasure and cooling
breezes in secluded rural hooks and on misty
mountain tops, and our experience warrants
US in saying, with pater: :fdmdias, "Stay at
heme." We consider it the biggest falacy
imaginable that people suffering from diseases
can fud cure in rising at day break and
walking for miles over rough country road
the way with tourists. Take, for instance
the unfortunate individual like p. f. above re-.
ferred to, who is suffering from that most
awful of all diseases-rheumatism After
dccsoring for months, perhaps some suggest
change of climate, and away he hiss.
Whittier? Say, the White Mountains He is
recommended to rise early every morning (if
able) and take walk. He does, through a
morning mist thick enough to cut with a
knife but that does not last lopg until lis
rheumatism is SO bad he returns home t. bed
with it.
Now, had he but remained at home in the
first place, we have a remedy in our mind :
eye that would have cured bis rheumatism at
less expense than would transport his aggsge
on the tour. We are impressed with the sin.

itself through its wonderful cures, and we
say that ST. Jacobs Oil, the Great German
Remedy, is far more efficacious in curing
rheumatism than ali the tours that may be
undertaken. In proof of this we will give
the words or our weIi-KnUwu raiIroau UIan
and member of the City Council from the
Sixth Ward, Mr.. D. j. Dalton. Meeting
speaking on this subject he said:
You remember when my shoulder and
arm were so bad with the rheumatism, last
summer, and for the spring and winter pre-.
cedirg? WE'LL had tried several remedies
and derived no benefit from their use /
thought would try change of climate, and
did 30, going to Point Burnside. on the Gin
cinnati Southern Railroad. The beauty of
the scenery and the foolish hope of relief used
to tempt me to take early morning strolls.
The entire valley at that time of day (just be-
fore sunrise) is covered with mist arising
from the Cumberland liver. That mist set-
tied my rheumatism. / was net there two
weeks until | was three times as bad as when
started. I came home and gave up tie
study Of climatology. Time and again l re-
marked the wonderful cures performed by st.
Jacobs OIL. | tried it. Five bottles of ST..
Jacobs Oil effected a complete cure, and l
am proud to say to you, or to any one else,
that the Great German Remedy will always
meet with my hearty Endorsement" Mr..
| Dalton, at this point of the conversation, was
approached on one side by railroad mag
nate. and on the other by politician. See.
| ing the gentleman up TO his eyes in business,
We bade him aiieu and departed.
| La the rotuoda Of the Hotel Emery we met
Mr.. John Lillis, contractor. The mention
of LIS name is enough for our readers to
know that he is at the head of his line Of
! business in this city. Speaking of ST. Jacobs
| Oil, Mr. Lillis said
| ''I was for three months in bed at my
house, No. 81 Elizabeth street, with case Of
inf ammatory rheumatism. My left leg was
swollen to an enormous size, and the pain
was so interse that could not sleep, day OF
night. l applied st. Jacobs Oil, and on the
second day the swelling had entirely dsaD.
| down town attending to my business"
Mr.. Henry Deters, speaking of the Oil.
says: 6 have very high appreciation OF
the merits of st. Jacobs Oil. On the morn.
ing of the glorious Fourth I was, with ssv.
eral perspiring patriots, engaged in little
pistol practice In honor of the day, when a
ball from my pistol accidentally gave NE a
flesh wound in that part of the leg known as
the calf. | had used st. Jacobs Oil before
for several things, and, instead of seeking a
doctor on that occasion, [ applied the Oil.
! T.. -, + L., IL
will say, for the benefit of our readers, that
Mr.. Deters can be always found at his place
of business, at the southeast corner Of Ninth
and Plum streets.
We met Mr.. Woods at his place OF bus.
ness, Ne. 374 Central avenue, and that ger.
tleman, in speaking of st. jacobs Oil, said :
81 cannot be too lavish in my praises OF
| st. Jacobs Oil it has Gone 80 much good in
my family, and branches of my family, that
have actually bscome enamored with it. 1t
cured me of rheumatism in the hip (sciatics)
after | had suffered for eight months, and
tried almost everything else. It cured me of
the toothache, which was SO severe as to al
most drive me crazy. / Suffered with il for
four days and nights, and one application
| cured me in less than three minutes. II
cured my wife of neuralgia in one day, she
having used less than one quarter Of bottle.
My sister-in-iaw was attacked with rheuma.
| tism shortly after ST. Jacobs Oh cured me.
recommended the Oil, as 1 always do, and
three bottles entirely cured her."
MIR. james Hanrahap, machinist, who re-
sides at No. $50 West Court, received badly
sprsiued ankle and instep, from the accidental
rolling of a heavy cylinder on his right foot,
incapacitating that gentleman from attend.
ing his work for about three weeks. Mr.. Il
says:
II was engaged. with three other men, in
removing heavy cylinder down an inclined
causeway, I being ia front, and the Others
behind. The teckling gave way, and before
| l could leap out of the way the cylinder had
passed over my foot. The foreman ordered 9
carriage and had me conveyed to my home
! Ga my way tbither the driver of the carriage
spoke 80 strongly in favor Of st. Jacobs Oil
saying that he had used it on himself and hil
horse, that determined to try it. I did go
and st. Jacobs Oil cured me completely"
| Now, reader we think that, in the face Of
the testimony given above. you will agree
| with US that for rheumatism and kindred
diseases it is fallacy to seek thesea shore, O,
some rural habitation, either wooded val,
or mountain top" when there is q snre curt
in st. Jacobs Oil easily procurable at ever;
