SAYS HIS PRESCRIPTION y.
HASPOWERFUL INFLUENCE
OVER RHEUMATISM

5Gr, James II, Alien SUFFERED for years
with rheumatism. Many times this
terrible disease left him helpless and
unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be free
from rheumatism until the accumulated
impurities, commonly called uric acid
deposits, were dissolved In the joints
and muscles and expelled from the
body.
With this idea In mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and fin
ally compounded a prescription hat
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
mis- system.
He freely gave what might be call
ed marvellous success. After years OF
urging he decided to let sufferers
everywhere know about his discovery
through the newspapers. Quinlan's
Pharmacy has been appointed agent for
Allenrhu in this vicinity with the I'M
derstanding that he will freely return
the purchase money to all who state
they received no benefit.
