that remedy, and was cured Later | was
afflicted with nervous trouble, and feeling
that Munyon could cure me, went to New
York in the nope OF being able 10 use his
static Electrical Machine. Not finding 1t
there, came To Washin gtOn and placed
myself under the care Of Munyon's Physi-
clans here.
AS a further evidence of the virtue of
MunyOns Rheumatism Cure. | had In my
employ man named Flick Spicer, who
was afflicted with that disease and IN
able To perform any work for Three years.
ii e lay IN a hospital nine months. and was

lie was Completely cured of that disease
with three bottles Sp4csr Is now as well
as any man you ever saw.

who mad suffered from rheumatism for d
long time | told her to get Munyon' s
Rheumatism Cure, and If it didn't cure
her | would pay for the medicine She
secured this wonderful remedy, and was
cured With less than one bottle. Why
shouldn't | believe In MunyOn"''
