To the Editors of Salt Lake City News
papers.
Having discovered a positive and
speedy cure for rheumatism. l address
you in the hope that you will give pub
LEFTY to my claim. I 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 this 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 decisions.
1t is to overcome this prejudice that
I invoke the aid of the press. L court
the fullest investigation under your
direct and personal supervision. l
would suggest that the fairest and
surest way to test the efficacy of this
remedy would be for me to send 10000
trial bottles TO the Tribune office, there
to be given out absolutely free" to all
persons afflicted with rheumatism, that
the name and address of each person
who accepted the remedy be entered
in a book, and at the end of one week
a reporter be detailed to interview the
parties who have taken the medicine,
and that the results of each case be
published with special permission) in
the Salt Lake newspapers. By this
means there can be no deception or
fraud, and the value of this remedy
will stand or fall upon the testimony
of those who have tried it.
Improbable as this statement may
seem to you or to those who have
doctored for years with the most skill
full physicians without benefit, yet |
affirm and am prepared to prove by
over 100000 people whom we have
cured that this remedy will cure acute
or muscular rheumatism in from one
to five days. It never fails to cure
sharp shooting pains in the arms. legs,
sides, back or breast or soreness in any
part of the body. 1t is guaranteed to
promptly cure lameness, sciatica, lum-
bagO, stiff and swollen joints, stiff
back and all pains in the hips and
loins 1t seldom fails to give relief
after one or two doses and almost in
variably cures before one bottle has
been used.
We do not claim this remedy will
cure rheumatism where the limbs are
twisted out of shape, or Where the
disease is complicated by scrofulous
diathesis. but by a careful record we
find that this remedy fails to cure
in only about 4 per cent of the cases
in which it has been tried.
One of the strongest recommended
tons for this remedy is that it is abso-
lutely harmless and that a person can
take the whole contents sof a bottle
without the slightest i'll effects. IN
like the medicines used in ordinary
practice for the cure of fheuma tism,
such as iodide of potash and salycilic
acid, which irritates the stomach and
kidneys without. effecting a cure, this
remedy acts as a strong tonic and is
Invaluable in building up weak and de-
bilitated people.
Believing that there is no cause so
holy and inspiring, no vocation so lofty
and ennobling. nothing So sure Of
as an honest effort to relieve suffering
humanity, L beg to remain yours truly,
JAMES NJ. MUNYON.
The Salt Lake Tribune, July 81, 1895.

dent Munyon's H. H. r. Company
