Many remedies were tried but nothing broke the grip 'of her crippling rheumatsim. At last her husband per suaded her to try Kruschen Salts:-— "My arms and feet were swollen with rheumatism,” she writes. “I could not walk nor get regular sleep, and nothing did me, any lasting good. I was so hopeless of ever getting bet ter. I lost my good nature entirely. Then my husband persuaded me to try Kruschen Salts, After two weeks I began to feel better. I persevered, and in six weeks, I was doing house work. 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 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. tives.
