Just. Try Rheuma
No Cure, No Pay
This Is the Basis on which all Drug
glsts 0fier This Great Cure

Anybody can afford to use Rheuma
TO get rid of terrible rheumatism, sci
atica, or gout. for il is sold by n. B..
Danforth. Market and Second streets,
Wilmington, Del, and other drug
gists at very small price. Your
money returned If it fails.
IL is wonderful how speedily this
simple remedy takes hold and how
sore muscles timber up and swollen
joints come down to normal. II is the
best remedy you can find TO drive
rheumatic poison from the system and
bring back health to misery-racked
bodies.

and was not cured until | used Rheu-
ma. My advice TO those suffering
from rheumatism is to use this great
remedy as | believe il will effect a
cure in any case."-C. b. Lanham, Sat
ties. w. Va.
Rheuma is also good for lumbago
neuritis. neuralgia and kidney
troubles. lt gets right down TO the
seat of trouble and removes the cause
