Common Sense Will Stop
Horrible Rheumatism

The famous Opie, great English

his paints with. Brains" he replied.
Rheumatism cannot live long in
body that is cared for by a head full
of brains. Brains or common sense
is an avowed enemy to rheumatism.
The. poisons with which every rhcu-
matte body is filled, arise in the kid
neys, or stomach or blood. This
poison goes into the blood. It is
stronger than the ordinary force Of
the blood 1t LODGES in the muscles
and joints. 1t gathers around nerves
and presses upon them. It in1ames
the flesh. Pain comes and remains
until tho cause Of the trouble, the
acids and poisons, are driven out Of
