ONLY POWERFUL
MEDICINE WILL END

IT matters not whether you have had
agonizing pains from rheumatism for
90 years or distressing twitchings for
20 weeks. Rhcuma is strong enough
and mighty and powerful enough to
drive rheumatic poisons from your
body and abolish all misery or money
back.
Tragic Drug Co. and all druggists are
authorized to sell Rheuma on no
cure-no-pay basis. A large bottle Is
inexpensive. and after you take tn.
small dose as directed once q day for
two days you should know that at
last you have obtained remedy that
will conquer rheumatism.
For over seven years throughout
America Rheuma has been prescribed
and has released thousands from ag-
ony, pain and dcspair-Ady.
