RHEUMATISM
The Way to Get Rid Of 1t Is to
Remove the Cause


The fact that rheumatism depends
on an excess of uric acid in the blood,
affecting the muscles and joints, pro-
ducing inflammation, stiffness and
pain, is well established. This excess
is due TO some defect in the process
es Of digestion and absorption, and
to torpidity or sluggishness of the
liver, kidneys and skin. 'saa65assEss-.
Hood s Sarsaparilla is very sue
cessful in the treatment of rheuma-
tism because it acts directly, with
purifying effect, on the blood, and
through the blood on the liver, kid
news and skin, which it stimulates,
and builds mp the whole system.
Get rid of these rheumatic pains
and aches by taking this medicine.
