rheumatism, which does its terrible work
in the muscles, joints, and tissues, is caused by
uric acid which gathers in the blood. To get
rid Of this poisonous acid which produces the
rritations, pains, agonies, infammations, and
swellings peculiar to rheumatism, Paine S
Celery Compound should be used without
delay. No other medicine gives such prompt,
cheering, and happy results. 1t is the only
medicine that prevents a return Of the dreaded
disease. Paine's Celery Compound braces
the nerves, the blood is quickly cleared of all
irritating posons, tissue and muscle are built
up, and the digestive organs perfectly toned.
Do not treat with indifference the slightest
rheumatic symptoms; the early use OF Paipe's
Celery Compound will save you weeks and
months of suffering. Mr.. S. D. Conway,

Paine's Celery Compound after repeated fail
