SURE WAY TO

Ease Stiff, Sore Joints and Mus

ache Promptly Vanish.

It is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up, and bent out of shape with it's
heart -Wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it,
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid, and II is useless to rub
on liniments or take ordinary rene
dies to relieve the pain This only
prolongs the misery and can't posi-
bly, 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 all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid tina:
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.
CroxopH is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chronic
rheumatism. kidney troubles and
bladder disorders You will find 1t
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like it.
II uldtteIS not NOW Ola you are, or
how long you have suffered. 1t 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.

Men fail to consider us as

base when the subject of woman
is broached," decla red DR.. Anna

association at Atlantic City, N. j.
DR.. Shaw said that states
rights are adjustable and pre-
dicted that ''the same southern
vote that defeated the Hobson

cause it interfered with states
rights, will forget that such a
thing existed when the matter of
granting franchise to women
comes before them."

those whom we have left at home,
to whom We owe all the presents
on the tables before US.
1T has been permitted by God
that the enemy should force us
to celebrate Christmas here. We
have been attacked. We defend
ourselves with Gods help. We
hope that for us and our country,
rich victory may spring from the
hard fight.
I'VE are on hostile ground,
The point of our sword is direct

to God. We say as once the great
elector did, down with all .ene-
mics of Germany Amen.
