TO GET RID OF
RHEUMA TLSM

II we suffer with Rheumatism and
desire to get rid of it we must make
up our minds to subject our systems
to the proper course Of treatment for
a while. The only way to cure
oneself Of Rheumatism is to remove
the cause-expel the irritating uric
acid from the blood every other
method Of treatment has proved z
failure. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism
because It IS the greatest of all blood
purifiers. This medicine goes down
into the circulation and expels every
particle of the sour, iuhammatory
uric acid which is the one great cause
Of the disease. The cure can be
greatly fastened by a little care and
self denial by the patient. In the
first place do not let anything inter
fere to prevent your taking S. S. S.
regularly and according to directions;
be guarded in your eating, because
an attack of indigestion will always
aggravate the symptoms Of Rheuma-
tism. Do not expose yourself to
damp and inclement weather any
more than IS necessary. When S. S. S.
has had time to rid the blood of the
uric acid and strengthen the system,
then these little restrictions can be
left of. This simple course has cured
many thousands of cases of Rheuma-
tism. Book on Rheumatism and any
medical advice free. S. S. S. is sold
at drug stores.
