Druggists Guarantee First Pint Bottle

nue.. Rochester, N. y, suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and ma
BILE to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be free
from rheumatism until the accumulated
deposits, are dissolved in the joints and
muscles and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
and completely banished every sign and
symptom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery, which he
called ALLENRHU, to others, who took
it, with what might be called marvellous
success. After years of urging he decid-
ed to let sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspapers
and instructed druggists to guarantee a
full pint bottle as above stated. Orange
