That contaminhHng and foreign element in

of rheumatism. This settles upon the sensitive
sub-cutaneous covering ofthe muscles and lig-
aments OF the joints causing constant and shift
ing pain, and aggrsgating as calcareous,
chalky deposit whice produces stiffness and
distortion of the joints. No fact, which exper-
fence has demonstrated in regard to Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, has stronger evidence to sup
port than this namely, that this medicine of
comprehensive uses checks the formidable and
astrocious disease, nor is II less positively estab
lished that it is preferable TO the poisons often
used to arrest it. since the medicine contains
only salutary ingredients. 1t is also a signal
remedy for malarial fcvers, constipation, dys-
pepsia, kidney and bladder ailments, debility
and other disorders See that you get the gem

When we consider through what q
multitude Of diseases children have to
pass, we are surprised to see how
many there are who reach the years
of maturity. There is no help for these
diseases. Children must have the
measles, mumps, whooping cough, etc.
There are some troubles, however, for
which something can be done. Mrs.
Winslow's Vermifuge will expel worms
surely and quickly, and children have
enough unavoidable ailments to pass
through without being allowed to suf-
fer with worms, when they can be SC
easily relieved.
