A Remarkable Case,

One of the most remarkable cases
of a cold, deep seated on the lungs,
causing pneumonia, Is that of Mrs.
Gertrude E. Fenner, Marion, Ind.
who was entirely cured by the use
of One Minute Cough Cure. She
says: "The coughing and straining
so weakened me that I ran down In
weight from I4s to 90 pounds. I
tried a number of remedies to no
avail until I used One Minute
Cough Cure. Four bottles of this
wonderful remedy cured me en-.
tirely of the cough, strengthened
my lungs and restored me to my
normal weight, health and strength"

Five years ago when Drs. Myerly &
Kruel told Ed that he could lay aside
his crutches and pronounced him cured
of chronic rheumatism many OF the
knowing ones said "Wait!" for he
had been on crutcheS most of the time
when he was not on his back for oy-
er years, and had exhausted all,
known means in his efforts to get rid
of a disease that promised to make
him an invalid for life.
When interviewed by reporter OF
the Leader today, Ed said that their
treatment absorbed the thickening and
swelling of the joints and that he has
never had any return of the disease
since pronounced cured This case
marks the beginning of system OF
medicine introduced in our city over
5 years ago by DR.. Myerly, that has
revOlutionigsd the treatment OF Joint
diseases and deep seated inflamma-
tions.-Davenport Leader, Nov. 4. 1902.
Mr. Arnold is an auctioneer by pro-
fession and was the first cure made by
our special method of treating, infiam-
nations and joint diseases. This meth
cd consists in driving the medicine
directly into the diseased tissues, by
| appliances made for that purpose. In
hip joint diseases, tuberculosis of the
joints or lungs, the medicine employed
destroys the germs. In ovarian and
pelvic inflammations we use remedies
TO remove soreness and infiammatory
deposits. thus doing away with opera
tons In rheumatism we use remedies
| that absorb the rheumatic deposits in
and around the JOINTS When medicine
is taken into the stomach it is absorb
ed by the blood and distributed to ey-
cry part of the body. The diseased
joint receives only a minute proportion
of what is taken into the system. BY
our method the medicine is forced all
through the diseased tissues and no
others. Some say this is not possible.
i The cures we are making should con-
vince them. If you are skeptical
come and we will convince you.

publican convention should precede

found impossible to do this much, as
the committee does not meet until May
6, and should the date3of the state
gathering be previous to that of the

that the date for the republican state
