The Disease Is Deep-Seated and Is Caused by Germs in
 the Blood.

Rheumatism is sturdy foe, and 1t never uses geutle methods with it's vic- tims. If the disease was confined to the surface there might be some logic Tn eX- pecting relief from it's clutches by rub ping with liniments and lotions. But q disease that can cause so much pain and suffering is deep-seated, and has it's source far below the surface of the skin.
 The only sensible treatment from which vor can expect results is remedy that goes deep down into the blood supply and kills the germs that cause the disease.
