The Best Remedy for Rheumatism. From Fairhaven (N. Y.) Register. Mr. Janies Rowland of this village states that, for twenty five years his wife has been a sufferer from rheu¬ matism. A few nights ago she was in such pain she was nearly crazy. She sent her husband for the doctor, but he had n a 1 of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm and instead of going for the physician he went to the store and secured ahot:le of it. His wife did not approve of tile purchase at first, but nevertheless applied the Balm thoroughly and in an hours time was able to go to sleep. She now applies it whenever she feels an ache - or a pain and finds that it always gives relief. He says that no medicine which she had used ever did her as much good.
