RHEUMATISM
W CAN NOT RF. PURRED AWAY
/
CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY
When the joints are sore and swollen, and the muscles throbbing with th*
5n of Rheumatism, relief must be had at once, and it is natural to rub the
Jected parts with liniments, oils, etc. This treatment does good in a way,
/ temporarily relieving the pain and reducing the inflammation, but has no
effect on ti.e disease itself, because Rheumatism is more than skin deep; it
Is in the blood and cannot be rubbed away. Rheumatism is brought on by
indigestion, weak kidneys, poor bowel action, stomach troubles and a gen-

era! sluggish condition of the system
should be carried off through the nat
ural avenues of bodily waste, are
left to sour and form uric acid and
other irritating poisons which are ab
sorbed by the blood, making it thin,
weak and acrid. Then instead of
nourishing the different nerves, mus
cles, joints and tissues it fills them
with poison to produce the aches,
pains and other disagreeable symp
toms of the disease. Rheumatism
is usually worse in Winter for the
reason that cold and dampness are
exciting causes. The nerves become
excited and sting with pain, the mus
cles are sore and drawn, the joints
swollen and stiff and the sufferer
lives in intense agony; and if the
disease is not checked it often leaves
its victims helpless cripples for life.
Rheumatism cannot be rubbed away
but it can be driven from the blood
by S. S. S. Being a perfect blood
purifier this great remedy soon pro-
.duces a complete change in the en
tire circulation ; the thin, acrid blood is made pure and rich, and as it goes
through the body nourishes and soothes the irritated nerves, eases the throb
bing muscles, and dissolves and carries
out of the system the irritating particles
in the joints which are keeping up the
pain and inflammation. S. S. S. cures
Rheumatism permanently, and in addi-
w -wMw- w ■ w tion tones up the digestion and stimu
lates the different members of the body
to their full duty so there is no cause
for another attack. Do not waste time trying to rub Rheumatism away, but
get it out of the blood with S. S. S. so that the cold and dampness of Winter
will not keep you in continual pain and agony. Special book on Rheuma

I was severely troubled with Rheuma
tism. I had it in my knees, legs and
ankles, and any one who has ever had
Rheumatism knows how excruciating
the pain is and how it interferes with
one at work. I was truly in bad shape
having been bothered with it for ten
years, off and on. A local physician ad
vised me to use 8. 8. 8. I did so. After
taking two bottles I noticed the sore
ness and pain were greatly reduced. I
continued the medicine and was thor
oughly cured; all pain, soreness and in
flammation gone. I recommend 8. 8. S.
to all Rheumatic sufferers.
