But few passenger boats are in

The victims of rheumatism all tell
the same story; they have sore, in
famed muscles and stiff, aching
joints; they have no ambition or
strength and get nervous and irri-
table, which is not to be wondered
at. We realize how much they SUI
fer.
'Nurito," prescription free from
opiates and narcotics, will Danish all
aches and pains, and timber up those
sore and infiamed muscles, or your
money will be refunded.
We realize that there are worthless
and dangerous remedies which are
sold as cure-alls by the help of manu-
featured testimonials, whose object
is to extract gold. ''Nurito's' pur-
