Mr Walker. Sir,— I have gtc it pleasure in teetifylDg to the wonderful cure effcoted on my knee by using your Lond n Rheumatic Core. I had sxtSt' rod for tl roe years, and tp nt c. gooddralin doctors end meJioines, hu; got no je'ief I was oh'iged to wmk with the help of a stick and hid given up all hop?s of ever getting be t-~. I <vas unable to bend toy knee, ruffeiing great piin, which made me sorneiimpg faint. I rot onn bottle of the LONDON EHEUMAIIC CUBE, and the fir-t rubbing gave me suoh reiiif that I oould leap for joy, and the day following I was able to walk without) uiy Btick and go ebou' my work as usual. Ob, such a change ! I was suffering also with my wrists and hande, and was unible to sew or knil for a long time. I rubbed them well with the Cure, sn i can now do my Bewing, knitting, and bouse work as freßh as ever. It is marvellous!

Mr Walker. Dear Sir, -1 can tesify to the wonderful cure I Rot by ÜBing the LON DON RHEUMATIC CURE.

Th mas ClAncky A<3hburton, 0 tober, 1893. Your LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE is a remedy worthy to be (raised. I tock rheu matic fever and was a good while in the hflnds of the doctors ; at last it seemed all to lodge io my ankle. I had to walk with a eiuteb and stick. The dootcr at last advised j me to go to Chrtetehurch and get the foot taken off, which I objected to do. I got vsry disheartened, as there pcemed no cure for I me. I heard of the LONDON BHI3UMATIO I CURE, and got one bottle, and tefore i was 1 done I was able to lay aside my st oka arjd to rofume business, and have bad no trouble since. It is a valuable remedy I can highly recommend it, as I believe it ba-* no equal. D. Macphekion. L wer High Street, Chris-church, May 1893 I bave been a sufferer from Chilblains eince a boy; my bands broke out every winter, and my feet were bo bad that on Saturday nights I bad to fill my boots at the »rteßihn end stand in this till shutting time I tried everything, but never got a cure. I was advised this winter to try the LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE, and to my astonish ment and delight it he&led my wounded hands, relieved my Buffering feet, and for the first winter I can remember kept me free from suffering. I can recommend it with all con fidence to those suffering with Chilblains. J W Ricjs Sold by all Storekeepers Wholesale Agent for Colony B, WALKER, WocUtou Canal Roaow,
