MAKE IT YOURSELF.
Says Many Persons Here Can Be Made
Happy Again By Using This.

There is so much Rheumatism here

lowing advice by an eminent author

preciated by those who sufer;I

rilla. Shake these well in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at bedtime. also drink
plenty Of good water.
1t is claimed that there are few
victims Of this dread and torturous
disease who will fail 10 find ready re.
lief in this simple home made mixture
and in most cases permanent cure
is the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elimina-
tive tissues Of the Kidneys so that
they can filter and strain from the
blood and system the poisons, acids
and waste matter, which causes not
only Rheumatism, but numerous other
diseases. Every man or woman here
who feels that their kidneys are not
healthy and active, or who suffers
from any urinary trouble whatever,
should not hesitate to make up this
mixture, as it is certain to do much
good, and may save you from much
misery and suffering after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
lresdgs ask them.
