One of the Most Valuable Discoveries of the 19th Century.

I have been afflicted with iheumatism twenty years. For the last ten yehrs have been obliged to use crutches. Often my left hip ahd knee ivould entirely give out. Have expended a large amount of money for remedies recommended as a cure for that terrible disease; have used the most powerful liniments on my hip and knde to sodthe the pain, that I might get a little sleep. My hip and knee had lost nearly all strength by the use of the liniments, and 1 could get no help. I saw an advertisement of Hibbaril’s Rheumatic Syrup, ordered half a do2en bottles, took them and received some relief, and ordered another dozen. Have taken seven of the last dozen, and I am happy ip saying that 1 know I am being cured. Have not used any liniments since I commenced Taking your syrup. When I began taking your syrup I could not take a step without the use of a cane; neither could I turn myself in bed without aid; can now turn in bed without any trouble; can walk about my house and office without the use of my cane. Often losing track of it, for the reason that when I take a long walk, I take it it along. My office is four blocks from my house; I have not walked to or from it over a year until last Thursday, a week. Since that time I have walked to and from it every day, except Sunday. I am truly rejoicing that I am fast being relieved from such a terrible affliction. -/ Wishing that I might herald to all who are afflicted with disease the merits of your wonderful med-' icine, 1 write you of the benefits which I have derived from its/pse. Send me one-half dozen bottles syrup and one-third dozen plasters by express, C. O. D. This I want for a friend in the northern part of this county. He is a great suf--ferer with rheumatism. Very Truly,
