RHEUMATIC COMPOUND
BLOOD PURIFIER

Tnia glcAt internal remedy is the best med
icine ever offered to the public for the ef-
fectual cure of Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia, and as a Blood Purifier, it has no
equal for all diseases arising from an impure
state of the blood, such as Scrofula or King s
Evil, Scad Head, letter. Ring Worm, Female
complaints, aud all break outs on the face or
body The vast number of rub-on medicines
which formerly have been rsed for those dis
eases were merely temporary in their effects,
and of doubtful virtue, but the RHEUMATIC
COMPOUND reaches the source of all trouble,
and eifectually banishes the disease from the
system by its immediate action on the blood.
We advise one and all TO give it trial, and
become satisfied of its wonderful power.
