and Strong.
From the Mt Sterling Qll.) Republican,
Few men are held in higher esteem by |
their fellow townspeople than James W.
Stout of Riply, ILL.,, and it is due no
doubt partly to this popularity that the
record of the case has created such wide |
spread interest. While his experience
is not without an equal, yet it has been
sufficiently remarkable to demand the
attention OF thousands of people in Hi
nois, among whom are numbered some
OF the most eminent physicians.
In January, 1898, Mr.. Stout was
stricken with what was then believed to
be sciatc rheumatism, and in a short
time was barely able to hobble around
on crutches, and it seemed to his friends
that his days we're numbered. To-day
he is a strong, hearty-looking man oil
100 pounds.
How this wonderful change was
brought about is most interesting as
told TO a representative OF the Republic
can by Mr.. Stout himself:

tism and lumbago in January, 1893.
The sciatic nerve on the right side be-
came affected in the hip, running down
to the ankle and across the small Of the
back to the left side, and soon my whole
system became afflicted, causing me the
most excruciating pain. In very short
time / became totally unable to attend

ease rapidly growing worse, had to take
