winter Of 1883, and since then life has
been burden to me. Not an hour for
tan years was free from pain. l would
rise in the morning with both feet red
and terribly swollen. could not get on
my shoes. Every step I took would bring
tears to my ewes with this pain. I would
limp about all day, hardly ever going
out of doors. After retiring would lie
awake and groan until from uttsr ex-
haustion I would fall asleep. Thus lived
for years life worse than death. The
first few years that l was sick spent all
my time and money taking medicines. |
tried everything that was advertised to
euro rheumatism Doctors and patent
medicines alike failed to give me even
temporary relief. A few weeks ago
bottle of DIR. Frost's Rheumatism Cure
was given me. TO my surprise and de-
light it has been entirely successful. The
swelling has entirely gone down. l can
walk about without experiencing the
slightest pain. The amount of strength
and power in the little PELLETS is wonder
full. They acted quick and sure in my
case. earnestly advise sufferers 10 try

their pains longer.
