Dr. J. 8. Pemberton, of Atlan¬
ta, Ga.
“Some years ago,” said the doctor in
conversation,“ I had a most severe attack
of inflammatory rheumatism, which
broughr me down upon my bed and en¬
tirely intieipated me for business.
“The disease appeared to have a lien
uh m y .a evini , »i $9 r l'iy t (iOiViu iu> t(T< t not
dislodge it. Iftinnientt’s Pneumatic
Cure was recommended to me, and I
took it. In a day after beginning its use
I began to improve, and in five or six
days I was entirely free from pain and
able to resume my business. I believe
what Itotd Mr. Ilumiieutt at that time,
that his cure is the best medicine the
world has been offered for rheumatism.
“When I was in the wholesale drug
trade Zeilin, the “ Liver Regulator man,”
of Philadelphia, and Simmons, the " Liv¬
er Regulator man,” of St, Louis, got into
a newspaper row in the South, and on ac¬
count of my position toward the jobbing
trade each of them was very desirous of
getting a certificate groin me. I was ap¬
proached indirectly by both of them
through my friends, hut refused every
time. Finally one of them made me an
indirect offer of 5?2,500 if I would say his
medicine was the best, or equally as good,
as any upon the market. I could have
done so conscientiously, but I had all the
money I needed and gave him to under¬
stand so in very terse language. In rec¬
ommending Hnnnicutt’s Cure I believe
I am benefiting any person suffering with
rheumatism or impure blood, as I know it
is best formula cheerfully.” prepared for those diseases
and I back it
Dr. Pemberton is a member of the Geor¬
gia Pharmaceutical Boad of Examiners,
and no man ranks high er in the south as
a pharmacist. Hnnnicutt’s Rheumatism

This is to certify that my son
was greatly afflicted with Dyspep¬

cians and everything I knew of
without any relief, I was persuad¬
ed by Dr. Reid to try IL II. P.
After using one bottle, I saw quite
an improvement in his condition.
Being so much gratified with this
result, the us« was continued.
After using one-half dozen bottles
lie gain thirty or forty pounds
in weight, and was entirely restor¬
ed to health. 1 fully believe it
saved my son’s life, and i cheer-'
fully recommend it to those suffer¬
