Pale-faced, weak and sickly widowed mothers with ill-nourished infants I clutching at their skirts have told stories of suffering, sickness, privation and despair that have caused strong men to turn away and hide their tears. Once healthy and able men now crippled by the ravages of merciless rheumatism, with faces lined and drawn by pain and suffering, have hobbled in on cane and crutch, telling of families dependent upon them, of neglected little ones and sickly wives, begging just one bottle of the great new liquid that may possess the power ' * ?

Such persons have been given cards to be signed by any preacher or clergyman as a recommendation and which when returned properly filled out have been exchanged for full sized one-dollar bottles. The cards are supplied by the main laboratories at Fort Wayne, Ind., and can be obtained by l any"worthy and deserving poor person I who needs medicine and has no money to pay for it..Not only have the poor people be come interested in the strange liquid tut persons in all walks of life; merchants, business men, everyone is talking about Boot Juice and its wonderful cures.

After telling of the above incident, < Mr. Harrison said, "I have been suf- ^ fering from rheumatism and constipation for five years and in wet or changeable weather my joints would J swell up and pain me so terribly that I j would have to have them lanced. The { pain was terriffic and sweat would I stand out on my forehead in large J drops. At times I had no appetite, 1 could not eat and could not sleep or work. I am a plumber by trade and am now at work again. I have no more rheumatism or swollen joints,my ?g bowels are regular and I feel like my \ old self again, thanks to this great medicine." 1 Other well-known persons who have suffered from indigestion, backaches, i 0V1 t\a norrAtionnca aloQnloQQnOQQ JUUTUUOUVOOI OftWV^/AVwouvww^ I dizzy spells, weak kidneys and bladder, j too frequent, scanty or burning urine, 1 tired, worn out and run down feelings, report equally good results and many J say that the first few doses made them I feel better.
