St Jacobs Oil For Neuralgia. « HOPELESS TOETUEE FOE YEAES— CUEED IN SEVEN MINUTES. Mra Charles Webb, Northqueens Ferry, Scotland, writea *. — " For many years I have been a sufferer from neuralgia in my head, to obtain relief from which I have applied mustard leaves, iodine, and all the preparations which have ever been recommended to mo, without avail. I have been treated by experienced physicians, who said there was no heJlp for me, that my case was incurable. I had myself given up all hope 0. ever being tree from pain again. For three weeks prior to using the wonderful preparation below mentioned, I had no rest night or day from the most excruciating pain in my head. I was unable to work, or think of anything but my terrible suffering. To make matters worse, my husband, who bad suffered from rheumatism and neuralgia for ! eight years — at one time confined to his bed for eight weeks — began to suffer great pain in his ; back and •shoulders. The case of both of us was pitiable indeed. Hearing of some of the wonderful cures wrought by St Jacobs Oil I procured a bottle, the contents of which I applied, with the most remarkable and astonishing results, as follows *.— When I took the bottle in my hand I was suffering such pain I could hardly see out of my eyes, when, upon rubbing a little of the Oil over my temples and the side of my head, I . was free from pain in seven minutes, and although that is three weeks ago, I have not felt the slightest return of tho pain since. I consider nlyself completely cured by the use of less than one bottle of St Jacobs Oil. I used the Oil on my husband, rubbing his back and shoulders with it, and the pain vanished directly, and he is now able to attend to his work."
