"At first paid very little attention to
the little pains, but they became SO
much sharper and more frequent that
before long I was almost disabled. The
disease attacked my muscles, which
would swell to many times their natural
size, and give me the most intense pain.
II was ready to doubt that Rheuma-
tism could be cured, when I was advised
to try S. S. S. This remedy seemed to
get right at the cause Of the disease, and
soon cured me completely. l believe
that S. S. s. Is the only cure for Rheu.
matism, for I have had no return Of the
disease for eight years."
The mercurial and potash remedies,
which the doctors always prescribe for
Rheumatism, only aggravate the trouble,
and cause a stiffness in the joints and
aching of the bones which add so much to
the distress ofthe disease, besides serious.

Rheumatism because 1t is absolutely free

AntiYenine.

Antivenine, a remedy of the Sc
rum class invented by a doctor
named Calmette, has been subjected
to the severest pratical tests in In
dia and is regarded in that serpent
ridden land as one of the ages most
valuable discoveries. AS an instance
of its power, an English medical
journal tells of a Hindoo boy who,
while drawing water from a well
near Meerut, trod on and was bit
ten by kraft (Bungarus coepllus),
the serpent whose bite is considered
more dangerous than that of any
other snake in India except the CO.
bra. Two men who were with the
boy picked him up and carried him
at once to the quarters of Surgeon
Major Rennie. That official says:
mot more than three minutes
elapsed from the time he was bitten
to the time / saw him. The typical
imprint of a snake bite, with its two
deep fang punctures and the cres-
centic row of small teeth marks,
was plainly visible on the inner side
of the right foot. l at once injected
eight centimeters of Calmette's an
tivenine serum into the subcuta-
neous cellular tissue Of the abdomen.
At the same time the wound was
treated with hypodermic solution
of permanganate of potash. The pa
tient was placed under observation
and never had bad symptom. He
is now running about, well. New
