with Mrs. Carrie D. e. Swift, who is the
wife of one Of our most prominent citi-
zens. This lady related that she inherited
from her parents certain tendencies, over
which she lad no control, and which
were in the nature of blood difficulties,
assuming the form of rheumatism. Her
experience can best be described in her
own words. To the writer she said:
II felt the beginning Of this heredita-
ry, faint many years ago, in vague pains,
! and at uncalled for times. They were
| annoying, exhausting, andinterfered not
only with my duties, but also totally de-
stroyed my happiness. At first, they
| would be only transient, appearing for
q day or two, and then disappearing
then again they woald come in such vio-
| lent forms, that it was impossible for me
| to lift cup to my mouth. Afterwards,
my feet and hands swelled SO that it was
| impossible for me to draw on my shoes
or gloves without the greatest effort. I
realized what the difficulty was, but
/ seemed powerless to avert it. I finally
| became so bad that I was confined to the
house and to my bed most Of the time.
| My joints panied me continuously and
my feet swelled to enormous proper
tions. Knowing that l. inherited this
tendency, I had about abandoned hope,
when I began the use of a remedy which
was recommended to me as a friend as
being specially efficient in cases Of a sim
liar kind. To my great gratitude, I
found that it relieved me, restored my
appetite, and I am able to say that now
I have gained forty pounds in weight.

ttNo one would ever suspect you had

remarked the reporter.
F'That is what all my friends say. Only
yesterday, an acquaintance OF mine,
whom had not seen for some time hes

by saying, why really did not know

''Have you any objection to giving the
name of the party who first mentioned
this remedy to you?"
"Not the slig htest. It was Mr.. r. r.
Furman, the photographer"
| The newspaper man, after bidding
Mrs. Swift goodbye, repaired to the
Photographic rooms, of Mr.. Furman,
when the following conversation ensued

went to the Hot Springs OF Arkansas,
and nothing seemed to do me any good
until I tried Warmers Safe Rheumatic
Cure" '.:
/. '"And it cured you, did it,
! Yes, completely"

it,"
r. eyes, indeed, more cordially than any
thing have ever known of. It is sim
ply a wonderful medicine. I believe
that two-thirds of all cases, both acute
and chronic, could be cured as I was
cured by the use of this remedy. In
fact know a number Of persons who

The statements above made are from
sources, the authority Of which cannot
be questioned. They conclusively prove
the value Of the preparation named and
show that even hereditary traits can be
removed BY the use Of the proper means.
