Why Suffer from Rheumatism?
Why suffer from rheumatism
when one application of Chamber
; Iain's Fain balm will relieve the
pain? The quick relief this lini
, mept affords makes rest and sleep
, possible, and that only is worth ma
nv limes its cost. Many who have
used it hoping for only a short relief
from sufienn? have been haDDilv
surprised to find that after a while
the relief became permanent. Mrs..
V. H. Leggett, of Yum Yum len
nessee, writes: 'I am a great suffer
er from rheumatism, all o v e r,
from head to foot, and Chamber
Iain's Pain Balm is the only thing
that will relieve the pain." Fo r sale
