Drives Out the Millions
of Tiny Pain Demons
That Cause the
Disease.

There are many ways of
treating Rheumatism, but there
is only one right way.
On the streets every day YOU
see the results OF improper and
misdirected treatment. You see
victims of this painful and dis
abling disease, limping through
life, their limbs bent and stiff,
and their bodies tortured with
aching joints, until you wonder
how they can bear so much con-
tinued suffering.
You see these same unfor-
tunates hobbling along as an
other winter approaches, know
ing that there is another season
of suffering in store for them.
You notice that they are little
more stopped, and their gait is
little more difficult as the
years go by.
Ii you are beginning to feel
the first slight touches of
Rheumatism, there is just as
much pain and suffering ahead
of you, if you follow blindly in
the same misdirected footsteps
of unintelligent treatment. For
remember that all these thous-
ands of victims of this painful
disease have spent countless
hours no doubt, as we'll as their
hard-earned dollars in vain ef-
fort to find a cure.
And your own experience
will be just as disappointing as
theirs, if you follow the old,
worn-out and worthless meth
ods of treatment.
The whole trouble is that the
symptoms of the disease are be-
ing treated, and not the disease
itself. When you realize that
you must get rid of the cause of
Rheumatism, and that its tor
turing pains will disappear
when their cause is removed,
then you will be on the right
track, and there is splendid

Suit was instituted Friday in be-
half of the State of Maine against
the Boston e. Maine Railroad to re-
cover a balance of unpaid taxes for
the years 1916. 1917 and 1918
amounting to $s32s.7s. exclusive OF
interest. The writ is returnable in
the supreme judicial court for Cum
berland county.
The tax assessed against a rail-
road company is based on the gross
receipts and the gross receipts are
determined by taking the total mile
age of the railroad and dividing the
total receipts by the number of miles
operated. multiplying the average re-
ceipts per mile SO obtained by the
number of miles in Maine.
The Boston & Maine Railroad
claims that in making this computa-
ton, the State assessors should have
included the mileage Of the electric
railways operated by it in other
states, and that it has paid the full
amount for which it would be liable
on this basis of computation. The
State denies that the electric railway
mileage should be taken into con-
sideration in the assessment of taxes.
