 SIGNALS OF DANGER
Don't Let Rheumatism Strengthen It's Grip On You--Fight It With
 GoIdine No.

If you were standing on a railroad track and saw train approaching, would you remain there, without mak- ing any effort to escape death or life long injury? Of course, you wouldn't. But are you inviting death or lifelong involidism by refusing to get out of the way of something just as terrible and destructive as that train-Rheu- natism?
 If your joints are aching, if your muscles are sore and stiff, you are get ting just as much warning as the en- gineer gives when he toots the whistle of his train. These aches and pains are signals of rheumatism and signals of real danger. for rheumatism, if al- lowed to spread through the system without opposition, can cause unlim- lIed harm in your system and if let go long enough would result in death.
 Which will you choose? Will you stay on the track, will you continue to suffer and let your body become more md more crippled, without making any effort to save yourself? Or will you do as thousands of others have ione, use Godine No. and fight W n- ming battle against the diseases that will surely cripple you and maybe make you a lifelong invalid?
