RHEUMO SUCCEEDS WHERE liniments FAIL. In cases of Rheumatism, Lumbago, Gout, Sciatica, Rheumo seldom fails to bring not only immediate relief, but a permanent cure. It cleanses the blood of excess uric acid, and dissolves the small uric acid crystals which have settled in the joints and tissues—work which cannot be accomplished by external applications. Many letters have been received from one-time sufferers who have found health and happiness through Rheumo. Mr William James, of Christchureh, was cured after fourteen years' torture from ILbenmatic Gout. Ho -writes: —"'To anyone suffering the agonising pains of Gout or Rheumatics, I can recommend Rheumo with the greatest confidence." Take Rheumo, is (3d and 4s Gd a bottle. ' J 4186
