If there is in this vale of tears a more prolific source of misery than the rheumatic twinge. we have yet to hear Of it. People are born with \ tendency o'rheumatism just as the, are with one to consumption or to scrofula. Slight causes may develop this. ssoon AS the agopizing com p!aiut manifests itself, recourse should be had to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which checks its further inroads and banishes the rheumatic poison from the system. This statement tallie- exactly with the testimony of phys icians who have employed this tine blood depurent in their private prac- tice.
