MAKES RHEUMATISM T
PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Chronic, Crippled-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doses
of New Remedy are
Taken

Ut is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up, and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenchiRg pains, when you can
surely 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 liniments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only prolongs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
ilhe only way to cure rheumatism
IS to remove the cause. The new dis
covery, Croxone, does this because it
neutralizes and dissolves all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid that
lodge in the joints and muscles, to
scratch and irritate and cause rheu-
matism, and cleans out and strength
ems the stopped-up, inactive kidneys,
so they can filter all the poisons from
the blood and drive it on and out of
the system,
Croxone lis the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chron-
&c rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
bladder disorders. You will find it
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on garth like it.
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 will find relief from the first few
doses, and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and suffering
will end. o
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trifle at any frst-class
drug store. All druggists are au-
thorized to sell it on positive money
back guarantee. Three doses a day
for few days is often all that is
ever needed to cure the worst back
ache or overcome urinary disorders.

The veteran of all bills, one which
has bobbed up at every session since
the legislature met in Marietta street
