Walks. Works and Feels

Right away-the first day you start

poison begins to dissolve and leave
the sore joints and muscles. Its ac-
ton is little less than magical.
RHEUMA works so speedily you
actually can feel the Rheumatism
leaving the body. A bottle costs but
so cents, and if you are not satisfied
n. B. Danforth will return your
money. Read this:
Il wish to state to you the facts
and nothing but the facts. / bless
the day a friend brought me a 80
cent bottle of RHEUMA. / used one
half of it and il did me more good
than all the other medicines l ever
tried. | had been afflicted with Rheu-
matism all over my body for more
than 20 years; | could not walk. and
was a broken-down man. During
that time | spent a small fortune try
ing to be rid of the horrible disease,
but without help. However, RHEUMA
reached my case, and l thank God
can again use my feet and do my
work.
Before taking your medicine / was
staying with a daughter on her farm
and despite her loving efforts to tempt
my appetite I could not eat. After
had taken RHEUMA two days my ap-
petite returned. Yours for prosperity

MISSION WORK
In THE SOUTHLAND

Mrs. Walter Hughson. a missionary
from Grace Hospital, Morganton.

at Emmanuel Sunday School, New
Castle yesterday afternoon. Mrs.
Hughson gave an interesting account
Of the early history and pioneer life
OF the Mountaineers in the CaroIinas.
Kentucy and Tennessee Mountains
She said that the Mountaineer
descendants Of the early pioneers
numbered 100000. The reason the
church has established missions is
because the people have not been well
taught. The Episcopal Church. in

said. is doing splendid work in in
creasing educational facilities. The
New Castle Junior Auxiliary viii
