The dressmakors, however. prefer the
artificial silk Jersey to The worsted

gowns beng made from IT,
OF course, the trouble in this country
is that the artificial fiber IS made from

RHEUMATISM
Physician Believes a Genuine Remedy
for the Disease Has Been
Found

Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism
remedy sold by +. A. Drown & Co and
all druggists, gives quicker and more
lasting relief than other remedies costing
many times as much.
Rheuma passes the deadly poisonous
seeretions into the bowels and kidneys,
from which they are quickly thrown off
in a natural, healthy way.
Read what a reputable physician says
about Rheuma; II have made most
careful investigation of the formula en-
ployed in the manufacture of Rheuma,
and heartily recommend ii as remedy
for all forms of rheumatism. / find
Rheuma far in advance of the methods
generally employed in the treatment of
rheumatism. and altogether different
in composition from the remedies usual
ly prescribed. DR.. NJ. C. Lyons.
This should give any sufferer from
rheumatism confidence to try Rheuma.-
