has been the successful pastor Of the
Second Baptist Church of that city.
Every day his venerable figure and
kindly face may be seen on the streets

many years. What history of benev-
Olence and self-sacrifice might be writ
ten by simply giving the details Of the
everyday life Of this faithful pastor and
eloquent preacher.
But old age comes to the best of men.
The rheumatics peculiar to advanced
age had already begun its insidious raw
ages when it became necessary to find a
remedy, if possible, that his days of use
fulness might not be shortened
An efficient nerve tonic that would
stimulate the circulation, improve the
digestion. and increase the tone and
vigor of his whole system, was needed.
The only remedy capable Of meeting all
these indications was found TO be Pc

he states:
"My attention was called some time
ago to your medicine for rheumatic
troubles by Mr.. Cook, an old reliable
