INFLAMMATORY RHEUMATISM.
AN ASTONISHING CURE.

The following case gives another re-
markabls proof of the really wonder-work-
ing potency of Compound Oxygen. The
patient herself could hardly have been
more surprised than we were at the result
which attended its use: for when we eX-
amined her case and understood clearly
her condition we did not believe that We
could do anything for her, and frankly told
her so.

''DRs. STARKEY & PALEN, Dear SirS:-
In April, 1881, | consulted you in reference
to your Treatment in Infdmm0fOry Rhen-
n3atisB. Eighteen years ago discovered
rheumatism in the ends of my fingers: from
that it gradually spread all over my body,
settling in my feet in 1870: and from that
time to January, 1850. grew worse and
worse, suffering nearly all the time IN
tense shooting pains, prOsfrafing me often
for days, when the trouble settled in my
left arm.
My arm lost oil rifdlHy, becoming as
cold rs if encdse6 an ice and hanging at
my side q heary reight. The muscles fell
airay TO the bone, and my shoulder wasted
till it became necessary to pad my dresses
to wear them. In addition to this trouble
my stomach was in a terrible condition,
having refused all kinds of food for
months, and / was starving on low diet
first physicians. After careful eXamin-
alton of my case, your DIR. Starkey said to
me, Il don't think can do anything for
yOu.' had heard and read of the Oxygen
80 long that | was anxious to try 1t ii only
to get little relief; so on April Sth, 1881,
began the Office Treatment, coming
every day for awhile and then three times
a week. The first night after inhdting the
Compound Olygen / had the first nights

encouraged me. After using the Treat
ment month noticed slightly changed
feeling in my arm, but cOuld not more any
part oft. During the second month
could notice a decided improvement in my
stomach and a little motion Of the fingers
l then had the misfortune to fall down
flight of stairs, which threw me away back
and injured my arm seriously. l resumed
the Treatment as soon as l was able to
withstanding the fall, l found, by the use
of the other arm, could more the lame
one about an inch from the body and could
raise the shoulder slightly. In November
could lift my arm little and the spots
were not so painful. All this time my
stomach was, improving and my lung
trouble less troublesome. BY Christmas
could eat almost everything placed before
me; had little or no nausea, and seldom
VOIlllteu. My UFM OeyuN 70 ytt OUt anu
the rheumatism, instead of being per-
manent pain, was now scattering and
only visited me occasionally and realized
that was much less barometer, felt
like ner being. In February, 1881, I ,ras
using my arm at light rOrk and ,ras able
to comb my hair, a thing had not done
in a long time. cOuid button my dresses TO
the top and found ii necessary to take out
the padding. In April, one year from the
time l began, my lungs had improved
wonderfully, my stomach was well, and
my rheumatism back into my fingers,
uhere ii started in 1861, eighteen years ago!
