The Most Common Cause of
Suffering.

Rhenmetism causes more pain and
suffering than any other disease for
the reason that it is the most common
OF all ills, and it is certainly gratifying
to sufferers to know that Cham berlain' g
Liniment will afford relief, and make
rest aud sleep possible. In many cases
the relief from pain, which is at first
temporary, has become permanent,
while in old people subject to chronic
rheumatism, often brought on by damp
ness or changes in the weather, a per.
manent cure cannot be exl ected; the
relief from pain which this lnment
affords is alone worth many times it's
