HOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM
10 II An Internal Disease And Requires
An Internal Remedy.

The cause of Rheumatism and kindred
diseases is an excess of uric acid in the
blood. To cure this terrible disease this
acid must be expelled and the system SO
regulated that no more acid will be FORM
ed in excessive quantities Rheumatism
is an internal disease and requires an
internal remedy. Rubbing with Oils and
Liniments will not cure. affords only
temporary relief at best. causes you to
delay the proper treatment, and allows
the malady to get firmer hold on you.
Liniments may ease the pain, but they
will no more cure Rheumatism than
paint will change the fibre of rotten
wood.
Science has at last discovered a per-
feet and complete cure, which is called
"Rheumacide. Tested in hundreds of
cases, it has effected the most marvellous
cures; we believe it will cure you. Rheu-
macide "gets at the joints from the in
side," sweeps the poisons out of the
system, tones up the stomach, regulates
the liver and kidneys and makes you
well all over. Rheumacide "strikes the
root of the disease and removes its
canse" This splendid remedy is sold
by druggists and dealers generally at
