"Sydney, N.S.W., " 14th August, 1883. <l Messrs Hatton & Laws, " Wholesale Druggists, Launce3ton. " G-entlemen,— l beg to honestly and truthfully give you the result of my experience after using' St. Jacobs' Oil for a severo case of gout. I had been suffering for three weeks with soreneßS and inilammation in the toes of my right font. On Ihursday last I had to leave my office and go home to bed. I obtained a bottle of rft. Jucob3 Oil, and thought I would give it a trial, and after rubbing tho affected part briskly for ten minutes _ I got relief. Next morning I again rubbed it, and from that time I have been freo from pain. Again on Sunday last the same symptoms appeared on the left foot. I applied St. Jacobs Oil as in the first case, and with equal succeßS. Having been a sceptic hitherto, . I now subscribe myself a firm believer in tho efficacy of good St. Jacob. — Remaining, dear sirs, faithfully yours, Michael M. M'tfiEß." A VOICE FROM A FIRM BELIEVER. " Office of R.

"Gentlemen,— Would you oblige me by sending me a case of St. Jacobs Oil for a friend of mine, who is a firm believer in this remedy. He uses it when troubled with rheumatism, and so do various members of his household for various complaints. I always keep a bottle in my own house, as it it seems to be a useful household remedy, and, as I mentioned to you, it cured our storekeeper's wife, who was suffering from rheumatism.— Yours faithfully, Wai. Ed. Wilson." MOST GRATIFYING. " Sydney, N.S. Wales, 14th July, 18S3. " Dear Sirs, — The statements of a number of our citizens which are at present being given to the public through the medium of the Press respecting St. Jacobs Oil sucgest to me the propriety of adding my own experience for the benefit of all concerned. " I was recently induced to give this highly praised remedy a trial in severe and painful rheumatism with which my wife was troubled. I confess the result was most gratifying, not only in this case, but in several others among my friends which have eomo to my notice. The effect in every instance was such as to convince me that St. Jacobs Oil conquers pain, and is therefore fully worthy of the highest praise,— Very respectfully, E. A. Little.

" Messrs Publishers, Launceston Examiner, " Dear Sirs, —It gives me great pleasure to Bay in the most unqualified manner that I have found St. Jacobs' Oil the best preparation for Rheumatism, Gout, and other pains that I have ever ueed or known. A member of my family was suffering from a severe attack of rheumatic gout, both in the hands and feet. The pain wa3 most excruciating. I suggested her using St. Jacobs' Oil, and am pleased to say the result was of a most satisfactory character. After one or two applications the pain entirely left, and up to the present have had no return of the trouble. I look on St. Jacobs' Oil as a universal panacea for all kinds of aches and pnins. I have advised many of my personal friends to give it a trial, and have heard from them that nothing they have ever used did them so much good. It is, without doubt, the only household remedy of modern times, and I shall always keep a bottle within reach. — I remain, dear sirs, yours faithfully, J. R. Dbewett."

ONE OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST OARSMEN SPEAKS OF ITS VIRTUES. EDWARD Tbickett, Eeq., the celebrated oarsman, in a recent conversation -with a representative of one of the foremost journals of the United States, gave the following as his opinion : — " I have found St. Jacobs Oil a sure and certain cure, and one unequalled by any medicine. It cured me of severe pains in the back brought on by over-exertion in rowing. It is a pleasant, safe, and sure remedy, penetrating at once to the seat of the disease, and eradicating the complaint without further trouble." The writer listened attentively to the above. Ifc was pleasant to hear such, high, words of praise from one who knew what he was talking about, and now he says that St. Jacobs Oil and good athletic training are what our young men want. £100 REWARD. £100.— A Casli Eewdrd of £100 will be paid by the Charles A.
