How to Prove it.

A rash assertion cannot be M ade
strong by simple reiteration. If we
say thing is prompt in its action
and its effects are permanent, there
should be evidence to support the
assertion and that evidence should
be without flaw, like the follow
ing: January 18th, 1883, Messrs.
Geo. G. Osgood & Co., Druggists,
LOWELL, Mass, wrote: "Mr. Lewis
Dennis, 1876 Moody ST., desires spec
tally to say: "Orrin Robinson of
Graniteville, Mass, a boy of twelve
years, came to my house in the
Summer of 1881 walking upon
crutches, his left leg having been
bent at the knee for over two
months. l had some st. Jacobs Oil
in the house which l gave him to
rub on his knee. In six days he
had no use for his crutches, and
went home well without them, aud
has been well since. st. Jacobs Oil
cured him." After an interval of
about four years, Messrs. Osgood &
Co., on June 18th, 1887, were asked
about the ondition of this case and
they replied: Lowell, Mass, July
9th, 1887. "Gentlemen: Mr.. Lewis
Dennis has just called and informs
me that the boy, Orrin Robinson,
who was poor cripple on crutches
and was cured by st. Jacobs Oil in
1881, has remained permantly
cured. The young man has been
and is now at work every day at
hard manual labor; a case certainly
which proves the efficiency of st.
Jacobs Oil. Mr.. Dennis tells me also
that he had rheumatism; that he
tried many remedies that were of
no use, and that st. Jacobs Oil
cured the rheumatism permanently,
