Smith of ArrowoOd, Is as strong as the English language can make it. He suffered so from uremic olood poison that his wrists and ankles were swoden to three or four times their normal size. For months he con Id not wear his shoes. Two eminent physicians treated him, but gat up his case as hopeless. Yet he was cured by the ue of Swamp Root.

Bee what he writes to The Advertiser: "On the 12th day of May I was taken with rheumatism, which developed into vremlc blood po.son. My wrists and ankles were swollen to three or four time their normal size where I laid racked with the most awful pain and suffering. I was being treated by two eminent physicians (whom 1 knew to be the best), but my case was. as my friends all said, hopeiess. At last 1 knew the end was not far off unless relief was at hand and as my brother had Insisted on my taking Swamp-Root, my wife bought a smait bottle at the drug store and after the first day I found a change for the better.

1 continued the Swamp-Root alone by the advice of my physicians, and in all took twe.ve ootiics, when 1 laid aside my crutches and found myself a well man. 1 did not have on my shoes from the 1Itl of May until the 22nd of September.
