RHEUMATISM---CUJRED
Never Faiureand Not Single Cases but Hundreds
THOUSANDS==Cured by the Famous Tonic
PAlnE'S CELERY COMPOUND

Il am nearly so years of age and had been
troubled with Rheumatism for many years.
tried almost everything to ease my pain, until
i concluded could not be cured.
MY daughter induced me to try Paine's Celery
Compound From the first bottle I had great re-
lief. The cure almost complete by the sec
ono or third bottle. | now completely free
from the tornents of rheumatism. Mrs. Mar
tina Alter, P. O. Box 95, Grafton, Pa.
MRS. Alter, so years old: Mr.. Jordan, SO years
old, and all the others-they are hale and hearty
to-da7 because. at last, they stopped trying to
cure the PAIN and cured the CAUSE Of the pain.
RHEUMAT1sM-1Ts CAUSE.
We print these letters, not because it is Mr..
Jordan or Mrs. Alter, but because it WAS
Rheumatism, just as real and Just as painful as
the rheumatism that You. perhaps are suffering
to-day. :
Remember, thousands of cases of rheumatism
have been cured by Paine's Celery Compound
precisely as Mrs Alter and Mr., Jordan We're cured
AND we have the letters to show for them.
Rheuma tsm, Lumbago, Gout and many other
diseases are caused by the blood being loaded
with acids and other impurities. 1t is not the
fauit OF the blood. The organs that should make
right.
But that is not their fault either. They can
not work unless the NERVES give them strength
to work.
The Nerve Force that is absolutely necessary to
keep all the organs sworking properly is toa
weak. This chain health or sickness ia not
mere argument or theory.
1t is recognized by science-in no other way
can you, become sick-in no other way can YOU
become well. In your body-for sickness or
health
THE NERVE SYSTEM IS KING
The real cause of your rheumatism is in weak
nerves. And there can be no real cure of rheum.
at1sm unless you cure the real cause.
These and our thousands of other letters writ
ten by cid and young, proof Of this. Paine >
celery Compound feeds and rebuilds the worm
out nerves.
1T makes no difference how the weak nerves
cause trouDle-whether in the blood or the stom-
acn' me bowels or the liver, the brain
VITAL FORCE to mako the system do it's work
Ito make you Well in every part of your body
it cures the REAL cause

under the left shoulder blade, was so severe at
times that she could neither eat nor sleep. She
