How to Cure
Rheumatism
It is an Internal Disease and Requires
an Internal Remedy.

The cause Of rheumatism and kindred
diseases is 81 excess of uric acid In the
blood. To cure this terrible disease this
acid must be expelled and the system 30
regulated that no more acid will be formed
in excessive quantities. Rheumatism Is IN
internal disease and requires an internal
remedy. Rubbing with Oils and Liniment
will not cure, affords only temporary relief
at best, causes you to delay the proper
treatment, allows the malady to get a
tirmer hold On you. Liniments may ease
the pain, but they will no more cure Rheu.
matism than paint will change the fibre Of
rotten wood.
Science has at last discovered q perfect
and complete cure, which Is called "Rheu-
macide.", Tested. in hundreds Of cases, It
has effected the most marvellous cures; we
believe it will cure you. Rheumacide gets
at the joints from the inside" 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 re-
moves its cause" This splendid remedy Is
