The ancients believed that rheu
matism was the work of a demon
within a man. Any one who ha.s
had an attack of sciatic or inflam
matory rheumatism will agree that
the infliction is demoniac enough
to warrant the belief. It has
claimed that Cham-
ain Balm would cast
out demon's, but it will cure rheu
matism, and hundreds bear testi
mony to the truth of this state
ment. One application relieves
the pain, and this quick relief
which it affords is alone worth
