The ancients believed that rheum-
akism was the work of a demon with
in a man. Any one who has had an
attack of sciatic or infammatory
rheumatism will agree that the inflic-
tion is demoniac enough to warrant
the belief. It has never been claimed
that Chamberlain's Pain Balm would
cast out demons. but will cure rheum-
atism. and hundreds bear testimony to
the truth of this statement One ap-
plicatlon relieves the pain. and this
quick relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost For sale
