SHE COULD NEITHER
WALK NOR SLEEP
Arms and Feet Swollen
with Rheumatism
This woman suffered fur many
years. Pain sapped her strength
until she lost hope of recovery, Many
remedies were tried, but nothing
broke the grip of hex’ crippling- rheu
matism. At last her husband per
suaded her to try Kruschen Salts:—
“My arms and feet were swollen
with rheumatism,” he writes. “I
could not walk nor get regular sleep
and nothing did me any lasting: good.
I was so hopeless of ever getting
bettei’, I lost my good nature en-
tix’ely. Then my husband persuaded
me to try Kruschen Salts. After two
weeks I began to feel better. I per
severed, and in six weeks, I was do
ing housework. Later, I was able to
go for a walk. Now I am free -from
pain and I feel grand.” —• (Mrs.)
F. W.
Rheumatism is commonly caused
by deposits of uric acid -crystals,
which lodge in the muscles and the
joints. Kruschen helps to break up
these deposits of troubling, crystals
and to- convert them into a harmless
solution, which is removed through
the natural channel — the kidneys.
