be present and he will then hear what
they have to say.
The following is the telegram which

On talk of sanitary board, Omaha yards
have quarantined these yards, possibly

gest a reorganization looking to more

MUNYON'S TRIUMPH.
The Fight Against Disease, Poisonous
Drugs and Old FOgyiSm De-
eIared in His Favor.
Mr.. ]. Banner Tells the Story Of His
Suffering and Cure.

Mr.. J. Banner. AZ E Twenry-first ct.
Bayonne, n. j., says: eighteen months
ago 1 was so crippled with rheumatism,
that could not dress myself. I tried
all the doctors in Bayonne, but they
gave me up as hopeless. l also tried
numerous preparations, but failed to
find any relief At last heard of Mum
yOn's rheumatism Cure and began US
ing it. The effect was marvellous. inn
proved at once, and found that less than
two bottles were sufficient TO cure me
completely, as I have not had q twinge
OF rheumatism since"
Munyon's Rhematism Cure is guaran-
teed to cure rheumatism in any part Of
the body. Acute or muscular rheuma-
tism cured In from one to five days. Il
never fails to cure sharp, shooting pains
IN the arms, legs, sides, back or breast,
or soreness in any part of the body in
from one to three hours It is guaran-
teed to promptly cure lameness, stiff and
swollen joints, stiff back, and all pains
in the hips and loins. Chronic rheuma-
tism, sciatica, lumbago or pain in the
back speedily cured.
Munyon's homeopathic Home Rem
dy Company, of Philadelphia, put up
specifics for nearly every disease, which
are sold by all druggists mostly for 20
cents a bottle.
Those who are in doubt as to the ma
ture of their disease should address Pro-
fessor Munyon, 1906 Arch street, Phil
adelphia, giving full symptoms of their
disease. Professor Muuyon will care
fully diagnose the case and give you the
benefit of his advice absolutely free of
all charge. The Remedies will be sent
to any address on receipt of retail price.
