The Cause OF Rheumatism

Stomach trouble, lazy liver and de-
ranged kidneys are the cause ofrheu
matism. Get your stomach, liver, kid
neys and bowels in healthy condi-
tion by taking Electric Bitters. and
you will not be troubled with the
pains Of rheumatism. Charles B.
Allen, a school principal, OF Sylvania,
Ga, who suffered indescribable tor
ture from rheumatism, liver and
stomach trouble and diseased kid
neys, writes: "All remedies failed
until / used Electric Bitters, but four
bottles Of this wonderful remedy
cured me completely" Maybe your
rheumatic pains come from stomach,
liver and kidney troubles. Electric
Bitters will give you prompt relief.
