To the Editor of the indianapolis Sentinel;
Having discovered a positive and speedy
cure for rheumatism, | address you in tho
hope that you Will give publicity to my
claim. l am we'll aware that in making the
bold assertion that | have discovered a
positive cure for rheumatism. there will
arise a strong doubt in the minds of the
public as to the truth of the statement.
and that a large majority of the people will
class this new discovery with the Koch
lymph failure and the Brown-Sequard elixir
of life delusiop.
1t Is to overcome this prejudice that / in
woke the aid of the Sentinel. / court the
fullest investigation under your direct and
personal supervision. I would suggest that
the fairest and surest way to test the eff
cacy of this remedy would be for this COM
pany to send ten thousand trial bottles to
the Sentinel office, there TO be given out
absolutely free, to all persons afflicted with
rheumatism, that the name and address of
each person who accepts the remedy be en-
tered In a book. and at the end of one week
a. reporter De uttdiitu 10 llittTNltW lit par
ties who have taken the medicine. and that
the results of each case be published in the
Sentinel. BY this means there can be no
deception or fraud, and the value OF this
remedy will stand or fall upon the testi-
mony of those who have tried II.
Improbable as this statement may seem
to you or to those who have doctored for
years with the most skilled physicians
without benefit. yet I affirm and ann pre-
pared to prove by over forty thousand peo-
pie whom we have cured. that this remedy
will cure acute or muscular rheumatism i'm
from one to five days. It never falls to
cure sharp, shooting pains in the arms,
legs, sides. back or breast. or soreness In
any part OF the body. It is guaranteed to
promptly cure lameness. ~sciatica, iumbago.
stir and swollen joints. stir back and all
pains In the hips and Ioins. IL seldom
falls to give relief after one or two doses.
and almost invariably cures before ono
bottle has been used.
We do not claim hat this remedy will
cure rheumatism where the limbs are
twisted out OF shape. or where the disease
In complicated by n scrofulous diathcsis,
but by careful record we find that this
remedy fails TO cure only In about 6 per
cent. OF the cases In which II has been
tried.
One OF the strongest recommendations for
this remedy Is that 1t Ii absolutely HARM
less. and that a person can take the whole
contents of a bottle without the slightest
III effects. Unlike the medicines used In
ordinary practice for the cure OF rheuma-
tism, such as iodide of potash, and sallicylio
acid. which irritate the stomach and kid
neys and disorganize the general system
without ~effecting a cure. this remedy acts
aa a strong tonic, and In invaluable In build
Ing up weak and debilitated people.
Believing that there IL no cause 30 holy
and inspiring. no vocation SO lofty and en-
| nobling, nothing so sure OF mans gratitude
| and Gods blessing as an honest effort to
| relieve suffering humanity. / beg to re-
main yours, truly,
