Tho basis Of calculation between cause
md CHANCE Is TO be reckoned, 80 far Us
mntbematics can figure out h result, upon
data like the following: The rules being,
Df course, the recognized mathematical
ones that the chance of the concurrence OF
two independent events is the product OF
their separate probabilities. We know
Aherc Is more or less frequency of recur-
repCo than fixed average; then, for or
against the probability, there is some
cause at work. The chance OF one or the
other of two phenomena occurring, when
two cannot occur, is the sum of their
different probabilities. For instance: in
ahe fall of1ss0," says Mr.. ]. W. Ames,
Fairmont, Neb., May q, 1887, "my wife
suffered intensely with what the doctors
called sciatic rheumatism, and was help
Jess. Tried everything to no purpose
she wanted to try st. Jacobs Oil, but the
doctors said no. but got II, tried it, and
IL stopped the pain. She improved, and
in u short time she had no use for crutches.
No return of pain in seven years" Mr..
W. W. Hall, Adams Express Co., Brook
1yn, N. Y, was cured of sciatic rheuma-
1ism by st. Jacobs Oil, and writes under
date Of May 6, 1887: u am still Of the
same opinion Of its curative qualities for
Bciatic rheumatism"
The probability Of st. Jacobs Oil curing
every time is reckoned upon known facts.
Out of the twenty million bottles sold
not one in ten thousand ever fails to re-
1icye all ailments for which it is specific;
the chance against the probability Is so
slight there must be some cause, and the
cause is found to be that it is not properly
applied or not taken in time. The chances
arc so overwhelmingly in its favor that the
marvellous cures wrought by il are the
offset to the few cases wherein it fails,
and are proofs that where properly used
1t will cure, aud never fails.
