Only Powerful
 Medicine Will End RHEU MATISM

It matters not whether you have had agonizing pains from rheumatism for 20 years or distressing twitchings for 20 weeks, Rheuma is strong enough and mighty and powerful enough to drive rheumatic poisons from your body and abolish all misery or money back.
 Lee & Osgood Go. and all druggists sell Rheuma on no-cure-no-pay basis. A large bottle is inexpensive, and after you take the small dose as directed once day for two days you should know that at last you have ob- tained a remedy that will conquer rheumatism.
 For over ten years throughout Amer ica Rheuma has been prescribed by Droad-minded physicians and has re- leased thousands from agony, pain and despair.
