THREW HER CRUTCHES AWAY.
Mrs. Walter R. Bush, of Williamsport,
Threw Away Her Crutches.
After years of the most awful suf-
fering from sciatic rheumatism, dur-
ing which time she was almost an in-
valid, Mrs. Walter R. Bush, of 517
6th Ave., Williamsport, throws away
her crutches and walks again and is
the most happy woman in Williams-
port.
Mr. Walter Bush is a well known
painter and has lived in Williamsport
for over twenty-two years. Mr. Bush
called on the Goldine man at Kolb
Bros. drug store, and gave out the
following remarkable statement: “I
can tell you what your Goldine medi-
cine has done for my wife. She has
had rheumatism for years and has
doctored and tried everything adver-
tised or suggested for it, but kept
getting worse and for the last three
vears got so bad that she could not
walk without crutches. It was sciat-
ic rheumatism and the pains in her
limbs were so severe that she could
hardly require it. She could not sleep
at night and could not eat and was
failing in strength daily and it would
only be a matter of weeks until she
could no longer endure the terrible
agony.
“But this medicine has practically
cured her, which makes me think that
the days of miracles are still with us.
Just think of it, after walking with
crutches for three years and then to
be able to throw them away and walk
again after only about three weeks’
treatment of the medicine, if that
isn’t a miracle I don’t know what it
is. She sleeps good at night now and
her appetite is fine and she is rapid-
ly regaining her health and strength,
thanks to this wonderful medicine.”
