POPtTLAE ; MXNSTBEI. MADS. SAPPY OE, PBOM JEST TO EABITEST.' " For seven years," writes Mr Horace Bent, of the Federal Minstrels, "I have suffered from an acute neuralgia affection of the right knee rtud rheumatic gout, which became se severe during our season at the 'Gaiety' in September, 'B3 that I was obliged to relinquish the active duties of niy^ frofession and keep my room for a couple of days, had tried several strong liniments at various times, some of which gave me partial relief. ' In the course of my lecture and sketches I had frequently mentioned, jocularly, St Jacobs Oil, but it never occurred to me to apply it to my owa ailments until a friend, who happened to be in my room whilst I was complaining of intease pain, reminded me of its claims, and sent out for a bottle right away. I used a little of it immediately, and found instant relief, repeating the application og'tin later on in the evening. From that night I have never felt either the neuralgic affection of the knee or the rheumatic gout return, and I would have sent you this acknowledgment earlier, but 1 thought it best to thoroughly establish the permanence of the effect, and have to subscribe mvself a firm believer in the virtues of St Jacobs Oil. Eobt. C. Carr, Esq., partner in the firm of B. Tonks & Co., Auckland. " I suffered repeatedly from sciatica, contracted from exposure in the war of 1863. St Jacobs Oil effectually cured me." Isidor Alexander, Esq., Jeweller Queen street, Auckland. "After protracted suffering from pains ininy' back and neck, two applications of St Jacobs Oil freed me from pain and inconvenience."
