A TRAVELING MAN

Creates Great Excitement in the Empire House. Independence, lowa, Oct 14, ISBS. Rheumatic Syruii Co., Jackson, Mich.: gents—Your Mr. Brooks came here tonight and registered as agent for Hibbard’s liheumatic byrup, and as he did so it awakened in me an interest never before realized in a guest at my house. You will not wonder at it when I tell you the story. For years I have been greatly afflicted with inflammatory rheumatism, the pain and soreness of the joints i.t times being almost unbearable; could move about only with the use of crutches. In addition to this, my stomach badly diseased, and neuralgia threatened to end my days. A traveling man stopping with me gave quite a history of your Syrup, and the peculiarities of its combination, which induced mo to try it. I have taken six bottles, and no act in my life affords me greater satisfaction than in writing you that I am a well man. It will be a pleasure for me to answer any communications, for I believe it to bo the best remedy ever formulated.
