RHEUMATISM AGUTE AND CHRONIC, MUSCULAR, MERCURIAL, ARTICULAR, Some people have been suffering from Rheumatism so long that they can scarcely remember the time when they were entirely free from an ache or pain, and lave long since forgotten the joys of a painless existence, They areatthe mercy ef every ill wind, and their misery is aggravated by exposure to cold or sudden INFLAMMATORY AND SCIATIC. changesinthetemperature, They become walking barometers and most accurate in weather predictions, the increasing pains in muscles and joints fore- telling the approaching storin or the coming of bad weather. It is from these constant sufferers that the great army of rheumatic cripples is recruited. Their bodies are worn out by the incessant pains and the joints become so stiffened and bent that they are at last compelled to giveup or hobbleabouton crutches. Nobody ever outlived Rheuma- tism; the disease never loosens its grip or leaves of its own accord, but must be driven out by intelli- gent and persistent treatment through the blood, for Rheumatism of every variety and form is caused by an over-acid condition of the | blood, and the deposit in muscles, | joints and nerves of corrosive | poisons and gritty particles, and it is these irritating substances that produce the inflammation, swelling nd ns, which last as long as | the blood ren:ains in this sour and acid state, { To cure Rheumatism perma- j nently the blood must be purified land invigorated, and no other remedy does this so well or 8o promptly as S.S.S. It refreshes and restores to the thin acid blood its nourishing | and health-sustaining properties. And when strong, rich blood is again circulating through the body the acid poisons and irritating matter are washed out of the muscles and joints, and the pains at once cease and Rheumatism is a thing of the past.
