THE WORST WRECK, PHYSICALLY

Of any Man This Country Ever Saw, Cured. Jackson, Mich., October, 1885. Rheumatic Syrup Co. Gentlemen: In November, 1884. I was cut in the wrist by a broken bottle, from which I suffered extreme pain. I called a doctor who pronounced it sciatic rheumatism. He gave me a morphine injection in my right shoulder, which resulted in paralyzing my right side. I was kept under tlje influence of morphine until last March. My right leg and arm had become badly withered and my joints were so stiff that there was but little action in them. About that time I discontinued the use of morphine. About six weeks ago I first heard o’ your Hheumatic Syiup and was advised to try it. And here let me impress this fact upon your mind, that my right arm and leg were shrunken, paralyzed, and withered so much that I could hardly walk or swing along, and that but little, and attended with great effort and pain. Since I have been taking your Syrup I have left off the use of crutches entirely, and only use a cane, and for the past few days I often forget it and walk without any aid. To say that I am happy, and that it has greatly benefited me, bht poorly expresses my idea of your Rheumatic Syrup. Yours truly, C. D. Denio. Dealer in General Groceries, corner Trail and Mechanic Streets. Mr. C. D. Denio is a man well known in this community, and was probably the worst wreck, physically, of any man this country ever saw. Ho was paralyzed from rheumatic poison, and no one ever expected ho would pet well. He is well, and it is simply marvelous. The above statement made by him is true, and may be fully relied upon. lam truly yours, Fbank L. Smith, Ex-member State Legislature, and Proprietor Hurd House, Jackson, Mich-
