It was found by D Chapin, a famous physician of N York. Now almost 2 million peo, have used the MUSCLETONE ment. The amazing success of MUSCL TONE i8 due to the fact that it neutral- izes accumulated toxins, absorbs them and relieves congested tissues. Pain goes. Joints become limber. Yet you take no violent drugs to upset the stomach. Nothing is taken internally. MUSCLETONE is applied directly to the part affected. It is bland and cool and soothing. We urge on test.
