full than inflammatory rheumatism and its
attendant ills The sufferer lies racked by
pains that seem unbearable and many times

skill to drive away or even alleviate, the

cured one of her friends and after a short
time q happy termination Of her terrible
illness was assured. Asked in regard to
her trouble and its treatment Mrs. Flynn
