Cures Rheumatism
Quickly Eases Stiff, Sore.
Swollen Joints and Mus
cleS-Drives Rheumatic
Pains Away.

It is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up, and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenching pains, when you can
easily avoid it.
rheumatism comes from weak. in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood, the poisonous waste mat
ter and uric acid; and it is useless to
rub on Inlments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only DrolOngs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
The only way to cure rheumatism
is to remove the cause. The new dis
covery, CrOxone. does this because It
neutraliZes and dissolves the poisonous
substances and uric acid that lodge
in the joints and muscles to scratch
and irr1tate and cause rheumatism, and
cleans out and strengthens the
stopped-up, inactive kidneys, so they
can filter the poison from the blood,
and drive it on and out Of the system.
CroXone is the most wonderful medi-
cine ever made for curing chronic
rheumatism. kidney troubles and blad-
der disorders on viii find il diff
ferent from all other remedies. There
is nothing else on earth like 1T. 1t
matters not how old you are. or how
long you have suffered. it is practically
impossible TO take it into the human
system without results. You viii find
relief from the first few doses, and
you will be surprised how quickly all
your misery and suffering viii end.
An original package of CroXOne costs
but a trifle at any first class drug
store All druggists are authorized to
sell it on a positive mOney-back guar
antee- Three doses a day for a few
days is often all that is ever needed to
cure the worst backache or overcome
