H All this talk that rheumatism can’t| be cured, that people must suffer ter- rible agony, gnawing pain and swol- len joints until the disease has run its course, is all humbug. Modern physicians know this, and many of them are prescribing a doc- tor's prescription known as Rheuma, which all good druggists keep in stock. | To end rheumatism or sciatica and banish it forever, you must fight it and conquer it with something more powerful than the polsonous secre- tions that cause it. Rheuma is a powerful yet harmless remedy, and the very first half-tea- spoonful dose you take will indicate to you that the poisons are leaving your system. The Lee & Osgood Co. or any drug- gist from whom you purchase Rheu- ma, will gladly hand you back your money if two 50-cent bottles do not stop the gnawing , the sharp twinges, and reduce the swollen, twisted joints. .
