A Purely Vegetable Blood
Remedy is the Only
Cure.

If the people generally knew the
true cause of Rheumatism, there
would be no such thing as lini-
ments and lotions for this painful
and disabling disease. The fact is,
Rheumatism is disordered state
of the blood-it can be reached,
therefore, only through the blood.
But all blood remedies can not cure
Rheumatism, for it is an obstinate
disease, one which requires a real
blood rsmcdy-something more than
q mere tonic. Swift's Specific is
the only real blood remedy, and it
promptly goes to the very bottom
of even the most obstinate case.
