Backman is now telling his I if ic all Hlip to the I Illctil v 11 iV-HUU J.U JLU ? recovery of his health by the use of the marvelous new medicine, Vitona. Captain Blackman, who resides at 340 Washington Street, is a locomotive engineer, runs fast passenger train No. 38, New York to New Orleans Special, between Greenville and Atlanta, and is undoubtedly one of the best; known and most popular railroad men in South Carolina. It was in a recent conversation with J. W. Bullock and Bartow B. Henry that Captain Blackman related his experience with Vitona and made the following statement which he authorized published for the benefit of others : "When I learned about Vitona and decided to try it I had been niiffnwnflf xxrifVi rhplima OUI1 CI L1L& ?iw? tism for five years. At times my leaders felt like they were tied in kntos and the pain in my hips was awful. After sitting down for awhile I couldn't get up without help and for weeks I couldn't reach my feet to put on and take off my shoes. I could hardly crawl into the cab of my engine and when I did get in it was an effort for me to work the throttle. I lost weight and strength continually. Nothing I would eat agreed with me and I had terrible pains in the pit of my stomach. I was so weak and crippled up that I had to IxnUUIa n non A Ann IIUUUIC iXIUUHU. un a, tanc auu was continually losing time from my work. When I got to the end of my runs I could hard ly make it home. I was so nervous and racked with pain I could hardly sleep and I tell you life was more of a burden than of pleasure. "My condition seemed to be getting worse all the time and nothing seemed to reach my case to help me until I began taking Vitona. A few days' use of this medicine proved it to be just what my system needed, my leaders became pliant and I could stoop down and get about easily. It is the only medicie that ever gave me any relief and since taking a few bottles I never suffer from rheumatism and don't lose any more time from my work. I can t ii now hop into my can line a Doy i and handle my old engine as well as I could when I first got my run. My appetite is fine, I can eat anything I want and enjoy it, and I have also gained 15 pounds in weight besides. No sir, I have no more use for my walking stick now, my pain and nervousness are gone, I sleep like a log and feel like a new man. Vitona is undoubtedly the fiest medicie on earth and I would go out of my way to tell suffering people about it." Vitona is sold at Lexington exclusively by Palace Drug Co.
