No greater fallacy exists. Sufferers from rheumatism tan be relieved if the cause is remedied ani. removed. Let us examine the facts. The direct cause of rheumatism and kindred clic- / eases is poisoning of the blood stream, through failure of the kidneys to filter ,nd renrtive the impurities that are con- tently collecting in the system. (hate the kidneys are out of order, e trouble starts. The poison ladened blotod„cireulating through the system deposits its ap paajtfes in the muscles and joifits, setting up infection, and Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, etc., follow. The first step necessary is to bring the kidneys to perform their natural function once again, and relief will be the immediate result. Gin Pills will do it, and will save weeks 01 fearful suf- fering if taken at the first, indications of rheumatism.
