valuable, yet simple and harmless

Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three

Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and

He states that the ingredients call

tion pharmacy at small cost, end be-
ing of vegetable extraction, are harm-
less to take,
This plonant mixture, if taken regu-
larly for a few days, is said to over-
come almost any case of Rh0umatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin-
iehes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in-
juring the stomach, While there are
many so-called Rheumatids remedies,
patent remedies, etc„ some of which do
give relief, few really give permanent
results, and the above will, no doubt,
