Rheumatism in Ankles
One Bottle of Rheuma Relieved
Woman Who Could Not Walk.

Marvellous as this story may seem, it
is absolutely true; but this is only one
of the many almost agical cures that
Rheuma is performing these days. Use
of one bottle will convince any sufferer.
Mrs. Gertrude Kozel, Smithtield, Pa,
writes: ~ had rheumatism for over
year; it settled in my ankles and
could not walk. l have taken one bot
tie of Rheuma and do not have any
more pain. and l can again walk at
will"
w. H. Sheldon. Middlebury, and all
druggists sell Rheuma for so cents. l. is
guaranteed to cure any case of any kind
of rheumatism or money back,
Gratifying relief comes in a day, be-
cause Rheuma acts at one time on the
kidneys, stomach, liver and blood and
starts to rid the entire system of poi
sonous uric acid at once. -adv.
