BEWARE OF RHEUMATISM

Bvery hour’s delay in treating Rheumatism enables the malady to get a firmer hold 'upon your system. Every time you take unsuitable medicine or employ improper treatment you add to the suffering you will endure in the future, for Rheumatism is a progressive ailment. * The first twinge of rheumatic pain may not seem worth making a fuss about, but consider tho other extreme. Have you ever seen an old man or an old woman with a back bent almost double and hands twisted and distorted into hideous shapes? These hands are practically useless. Around those stiff and ugly joints there is a rock-like deposit of chalky substances—uric acid. It is too late to disperse it now. Every movement, every tbat is taken, every time the poor sufferer bends or stoops or twists or turns, he or she endures indescribable agony which will continue as long as life lasts. Yet those twisted hands were once as' shapely as your own; that bent back was straight, and the useless muscles supple and 6trong. Rheumatism quickly cripples the strongest men and women. Be on your guard. Watch foT the earliest symptoms, and then take De Witt's Pills —the remedy that has already proved successful in many thousands of cases. Chemists everywhere sell and recommend De Witt's Pills, and as they only cost 3s 6d per box the, price will certainly not stand in your way. Why not get a box at once and take two pills just before you go to bed? That is the way to obtain, quick relief from rheumatic pain, and also avoid suffering later on.
