A Chamber of Horrors.

The apartment to WHICH thesunhap-
Ply wretch is confined by ipflammatory
rheumatism is indeed a chamber of
horrors. appalling are the tortures in
fiicted by the agonizlng complaint, and
those endured by persons suffering from
milder forms of it are severe enough.
Obstinate as it is in its mature develop
ment, it is surely remarkable at the OUT
set with Hostetter's Stamach BItters, an
infinitely safer as we'll as more effective
remedy than the poisons often used to
subdue 1t. Always should it be borne
in mind by those seeking relief from
rheumatism that thought copquerable
in the incipient stage,it is not only stub
born but dangerous to attack the vital
parts. This consideration should lead
to tie early adoption of curative meas
ures. The Bitters will overcome ma
larlal, kidney, dyspeptic and bilious
