Acute Articular Rheumatism Relieved By Anti-Kamnia Tablets The exact cause of rheumatism Is un known, though it is generally believed to be due to an excess of uric acid in the blood. It may be also said with equal truth that no remedy has been found which is a specific in all cases. In fact the literature of rheumatism shows that there are but few drugs which have not been given a trial. In the hands of one observer we find that a certain drug has been used with the utmost satisfaction; others have found the same remedy to be a great disappointment. All phys icians however agree that every method of treatment is aided by the administra tion of some remedy to relieve the pain and quiet the nervous system and Dr. W. S. Schultze expresses the opinion of thousands of practitioners when he says that Anti-kamnia Tablets should be giv en preference over all other remedies for the relief of the pain in all forms of rheumatism. These tablets can be purchased in any quantity. They are also unsurpassed In headaohes, neural elas and all pain. Ask for A-K Tablets, FORECLOSURE SALE. DOUBLE SALES FROM BEGINNING.
