TRY THIS TO DANISH
ALL RHEUMATIC PAINS

People who have been tormented
for years-yes, even so crippled that
they were unable to help themselves
have been brought back TO robust
health through the mighty power of
Rheuma
Rheuma acts with speed; it brings
in few days the relief you have
prayed for. 1t antagonizes the poisons
that cause agony and pain in the joints
and muscles and quickly the torturing
soreness completely disappears.
It is a harmless remedy, but sure
and certain, because it is one discov-
cry that has forced rheumatism and
sciatica to yield and disappear.
Try 50cent bottle of Rheuma
and if you do not get the joyful relief
you expect, your money will be re-
turned. Wilfred F.. Root always has a
supply Of Rheuma and guarantees il
to you.
