The Waco daily examiner. [volume] (Waco, Tex.) 187?-1888, 1882-01-12

When he first tried it he was in bed
suffering severely. After beginning
the use of the oil, however, he did not
have to remain there long. The oil
| put him on his feet soon and it waa
only short time before it entirely re-
lieyed him. Since then he has always
kept bottle of St. Jacobs Oil by him
and applies it as soon as he feels the
first symptoms of approaching pain
1t always. without fall, answers the
purpose. Previous TO using St. ia
cJbs Oil, Mr.. Beayitt tried almost
everything which had promise of re
lief i'll it. Since, however, he dlscoy-
cred that the OIL has power to charm
away his pain, be has dropped every
thing else and depends upon its etii-
cacy entirely. He stated it as his en-
phatic belief that the great German
remedy wonld cure any ordinary case
of rheumatism, if properly used.
| Some of his acquaintauces he said
rub it on their limbs in q partial sor,
OF way and quit its use because
they do not experience instant cure.
1t must be rubbed in well, and the
application and rub being persisted in
until the flesh and muscles get satura-
ted with it and the surface of the skin
breaks INTO protuse perspiration.
This, he said, is the way he does, and
he never fails to obtain very speedy
and sure relief. He has recommended
| the oil to great many OF his friends,
| the ma iority of whom have afterwards
told him they were benefited by it.
Mr.. Leavitt incidentally remarked
that his friend, Mr.. John Caldwell. a
prominent stOckman and citizen, was
complaining of rheumatism. He ad-
vised the employment OF St. Jacobs
Oil, and at the same time instructed
how it should be used. Mr.. Caldwell
used it and reported cure.
A REMARKABLE CASE
Is reported from the county in which
the St. jacobs Oil wrought what
might almost be elevated into the
dignity of a miracle, This remedy
sometimes acts i'll start
lingly phenomenal manner, and
this is, perhaps, one of tlB
most wonderful things it has done
within the limits of the United States.
Mr.. A. f. Herring, a well known
farmer and highly esteemed citizen
residing at White Hall, this county,
five miles from Waco, relates the fol-
lowing: Mr.. Herring was moving a
heavy wagon with mule team and
was so unfortunate as to get his foot
jammed. He was so placed that the
toes OF his foot were pressed up and
up until they nearly touched hls leg
The pain was terrific. When released
he was almost sick from his intense
suffering. Pretty soon, however, the
blood got to circulating again and he
felt comparatively easy. But after he
got home that night he found that the
case was deceptiYe-a mere lull in the
stOrm-tor the foot and ankle began
to hurt and grew worse 50 rapidly
that he was almost mad with the
agony of it. His people rcsortcd to
various measures to give him relief,
but he only grew worse. He felt as il
he could not long survive such hor-
rible suffering. and his family were
greatly distressed over his condition.
1t was suddenly remembered that
there was bottle OF ST. Jacobs 0 4
III the house, procured some time
previous to use on mule which had
u spraIn. Mr.. Herring ordered the
bottle brought to him, and commenced
TO rub his foot and ankle i'll il. He
felt easier in q few minutes. and ere
long he experienced decided relief.
SO gratifying was the result of the ap-
plication that he continued rubbing
on the oil until he had used all there
was in the bottle, when he discovered
that the pain was all gone. Not yes
ige of the agony which maddcncd him
a few minutes before remained to
plague him, and he went to bed aud
slept as soundly as though nothing
had ever occurred to disturb him
he next day the ankle was little
stiff, and, with this execution, he never
telt any further effects from the acci-
dent. Mr. Herring said that he after
wards related the circumstance 10 q
and that gentleman gave il
rs MS opinion that the accident pro-
duced not only most aggravated and
Sprain, but also broke some
one OF the hOncs.and that he had come
OH remarkably well 1t need scarcely
be remarked, sitter the foregoing, that
Mr.. Herring expressed m, st pro-
found belief il the wonderful power
Of the St Jacobs Oil.
ltis thus that this great pain ami
hilator Is spoken of by wclI-kuown
and intelligent citizens of this city
and adjacent country. To say that
such testimony Is Invaluable, is hot
enough. 1t is unprecedented in the /
