The KEY Note

To the successful treatment of Rheu'
matism is to find medicine that
will correct the irregularities OF the
stomach and liver and strengthen the
muscles OF the kidneys.
Do not think ou can drive this dis
ease from your system by continually
pounding away at the bowels. You
can accomplish nothing but to impair
the digestive organs.
Truax Rheumatic Cure is regula-
tor to the stomach, mild and soothing
to the kidneys and a corrective to the
liver.
This is the KEY NOTE to your ulti-
mate cure.
Unless the rheumatism has settled
in some injured part Of the body this
medicine will certainly remove it if
you are only persistent in taking it.

preached IL powerful sermon full of the

ing arguments caused many to profess
faith in the atoning blood of Christ and
signify their intention to henceforth live

support of the Christian people OF the
city, who by their prayers and work, are
aiding in bringing about IL great outpour-
ing of Gods power to save souls. The

lent singing. The song services are one
