Will Rheumatism Again
Bind You Hand and Foot?

RRtfSR<Hf<f[tRf>ffStf tfSftfSfAfAfA<NfTfS>ffp
There are thousands of victims
Of Rheumatism who dread the ap-
proaeh of damp, wintry weather,
for it means to them a return Of
the pangs of Rheumatism.
If you had Rheumatism last year
and treated only the pains of the
disease by rubbing with liniments
and lotions. you can be sure that
soon again you will be in the
shackles Of this relentless foe.
You may get some slight tempo
rary relief from the pains of the
disease by the use of these local
remedies, but Rheumatism is too
real and relentless a disease to be
rubbed away.
