Rheumatism Cannot Be
Cured Unless UriC-0
Is Used
The Store of B. a. Qunlsn Is the Home Of
Uric-0 in Bennington.

The Rheumatic person Is skeptical
regarding the claims OF almost any
remedy advertised as a cure for rheu-
matism and one can scarcely blame
him for being so. All the plasters and
liniments combined never actually
cured case OF rheumatism They
may relieve it in one quarter but 1t is
sure to break out somewhere else. The
only true way to cure rheumatism Is
to drive IL from the system, for as long
as the Uric and Rheum attic acid re
mains in the blood, one Is never entire
~ free from the trouble. This is where
the value of Uric.O as a permanent
cure for rheumatism comes In. 1t
seeks out the Rheumatic poison In the
blood, muscles ard kidneys, renders
it inert and harmless and drives 1t out
OF the system. That is why Uric-O is
such an admirable and effective cure
for Rheumatism.
The chief reason that Uric-O is such
a wonderful cure for Rheumatism is
that it is designed and prepared to cure
rheumatism and rheumatism only.
1t does not contain any alcohol or
other so called tonics to make one
"feel good" for the time being, buG is
composed Of antidotes for the rheumat-
icjacid poison in the system. That is
the secret of its wonderful success.
rheumatism simply cannot exist in a
PERSONS system If Uric 0 is used.
Urc-O is sold by b. A. Quinlan,
"The home of Uric-O' in Bennington,
at 75c and sl00 the bottle, but If you
still feel skeptical about its efficacy
you can test it free of charge by cut
ting out this advertisement and send
ing same together with your name and
address to the Smith Drug Coz SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, and they will send you

write and say they have never used
Uric.O, want to test it thoroughly and
agree to take it Systematically accord
ing to directions, they frequently send
a regular 75c bottle free.
