Spirits for Rheumatism

The use of spirits in the treatment
of rheumatism has proved an nova
ton among the medical profession.
When mixed with certain other in
gradients and taken properly il is said
to be an almost infallble cure for Theu-
matism and backache. Here is the
formula: From your druggist get one
ounce Of TOriS compound Tin original
sealed package) and one ounce of
syrup of SarSaparilla compound Take
these two ingredients home and put
them into a half pint of good Whiskey.
Shake the bottle and take a tablespoon
full before each meal and at bedtime.
Results come immediately. If your
druggist does not have ToriS compound
in stock he viii get it in e few hours
from his wholesale house Don't be
influenced to take some patent medi-
cine instead of this. Insist on having
the genuine TOriS compound in the
