The ancients believed that rheu-
matism was the work of a demon
within man. Anyone who has had
an attack of sciatic or inf1ammatory
rheumatism will agree that the in
Fiction is demoniac enough to war
rant the belief. 1t has never been
claimed that Chamberlain's Pain
Balm would cast out demons, but it
will cure rheumatism, and hundreds
bear testimony to the truth of this
statement. One application relieves
the pain, and this quick relief which
it affords is worth many times it's
