[Cincinnati Times Star ] 
HELLO! 
Our reporter yesterday took a peep into the 
ollice of the Bell Telephone Company to be 
initiated into tlio call-room of that establish¬ 
ment; he was met on the threshold of the 
ollice by the superintendent, Mr. C. C. Arm¬ 
strong, a gentleman who knows more about 
telephones than the writer could toll in a 
year’s time through one of the windy instru¬ 
ments. 
Mr. Armstrong tendered us a very courte¬ 
ous greeting, and very good-naturedly gave 
us some information which we in our turn 
impart to our readers. 
Mr. A. who has telephone matters at his 
fingers’ end, is, in fact the best posted man on 
telephone topics in the country. We chatted 
over some twenty-five miles of a wire with 
some gentleman in Hamilton, Ohio. 
“ llow are you, Hamilton wo asked. 
“ Got the rheumatism,” re,died the Hamil¬ 
ton gentleman, whereupon we laughed. 
“ Tell him to use St. Jacobs Oil,” said Mr. 
A. Wo did as he told us, laughingly. 
“ If he has got the rheumatism it is no 
laughing matter, I assure. When I was super 
intending the building of that very line over 
which you have just spoken I contracted a 
very severe case of rheumatism myself. It 
was built in bad weather. In fact it rained 
most of the time. I was in a great hurry to 
see it completed, and used to take a train and 
go out to the construction gang daily. I 
got wet very often, but did not at the time 
pay much attention to it. Not long after, 
though, 1 fouud myself with the rheumalism, 
and a glorious thing the rheumatism is. My 
right leg was in a very bad condition, and, 
although 1 made all sorts of effort to cure it, 
it seemed to grow steadily worse. Mr. Steve 
Meade, the well known deteetivo officer, re¬ 
commended St. Jacobs Oil, that gentleman 
having used that invaluable remedy and be¬ 
ing cured by it. 1 procure 1 the Oil, rubbed 
it to my leg and felt enormously relievod. It 
is the most penetrating medicine I ever saw, 
it seemingly goes straight to the bone, but no 
matter how it goes in, it drives the rheuma¬ 
tism our.. I did not use more than five or six 
bottles of St. Jacobs (Oil before I was cured, 
and, although I walk a great deal, and some¬ 
times catch a wotting, 1 havt felt no return 
of my rheumatism. I think it is afraid of 
St. Jacobs Oil, and very properly and justifia¬ 
bly so.”— Adv. 
The ladies who sometime since were unable 
to go out, having taken Lydia E Piukham’s 
Vegetable Compound are quite recovered, 
and have gone on their way rejoicing.— Adv.
