STIFF JOINTS
Pharmacists call it Joint Ease
because it's for Swollen, Sore
Painful, Creaky Joints Only

1t took a good many years to get to-
gether a combination Of pain subduing
and swelling reducing agents declared to
be the one remedy that almost instantly
penetratesH through skin and flesh and
starts right in to make swollen. inflamed.
creaky. pain-racked joints as good as new.
They call this new and wonderful prep
aration Joint Ease" because the medical
man who turned the trick. worked for
years to perfect some low-priced remedy
that would really benefit the millions of
people who have one or more Joints that
need helpful attention.
So "Joint Ease is prepared only for
people who have a swollen. painful,
creaky, distorted or stiff joint. whether it
be in knee. elbow, shoulder. ankle, neck
or finger and whether 1t is caused by
rheumatism or something else.
OF course, it can't help but quickly put
an end to such superficial ailments as
lumbago. neuralgia. neuritis. aching
muscles, stitch in the side. crick in the
neck or sore feet because of its penetrat-
ing action. but what it is really recon-
mended for is joint ailments of any nature
whatever.
Ask for a tube OF 'Joint Ease" You
can use 1t several times In one evening for
quick results, because 1t goes right
through the skin with only a few seconds
and when It gets under the skin, 1t starts
right in to clean UP all Joint trouble.
-A-dispenses It daily for about SO
cents a tube, as do first class druggists
evcrywhere.-ady
