The hack and shoulders are the parts usually affected by rheuma tism, and the joints at the knees, ankles, hips and wrists are also sometimes attacked. Thousands of people have found in Hood's Sarsapa rilla a postive and permanent cure for rheumatism. It has had remark able success in curing tbe most severe cases.
