1 i VORD OF COMM
To the Distressed.
Fortunately for those suffering with
Rheumatism in all its various forms, in
cluding Sore Joints, Sore Muscles, anc
Sore Feet, a remedy has been discovered
by modern science which in every instance
effects a speed}’ aud positive cure. Tliii
new remedy is founded on scientific prin
ciples which are acknowledged by the
medical world as the only correct treat
ment for Rheumatic or Neuralgic troubles
Medicines taken internally rarely everef
feet a cure without upsetting the stomach
, As a rule, they injure the digestive organs
shatter the nerves, and in many instances
the patient contracts a drug habit whicl
leads eventually to a decline of thephysi
cal and mental forces.
Paracamph is the new remedy and it ii
a departure from the antiquated methods
Paracamph enters into the system through
the natural channels, namely, the pores
of the skin. When applied it opens the
pores and allows the healing, soothingoils
e to penetrate the sore, inilamed mebranes
and muscles, removes the congestion and
draws out the fever and inflammation, bv
inducing sweating. This is the only treat
ment that can be indorsed by science, and
is guaranteed to cure even the most obsti
nate cases of Rheumatic Swellings if used
as directed. Paracamph can be procured
at drug stores in 25 cent, and 50 cent, and
$1.00 bottles. Write for book of testimo

(TT1RS. McDonald, that I must do something
|T| No. 477 Beaubien to regain my health. A
1J Street, Detroit, friend advocated your Wine
Mich., isaprom- of-Cardui treatment so
inent woman who strongly that I decided to
greatly benefited by the try It, although i had little
great woman’s medicine, faith in patent medicines.
Wine of Cardui. I am now very thankful that
McDonald is the supreme I did so, for within ten days
deputy of the Maccabees blessed relief came to me,
of the World, and one of and in less than three
the most widely known months I was cured, and
wnmpn in hn TTnitpi-1 - 1 have enioved ine health (
States. Thousands of women gather to
hear her lecture everywhere sue goes.
The great work she has done for the
Maccabees is appreciated by every
member of the order. She was so ab
sorbed in her work that she neglected
to give her health proper care—failed
to take warning that the symptoms of
approaching kidney trouble gave her,
the sallow complexion and torpid liver.
But Wine of Cardui cured her the.same
as it has cured thousands of others and
Mrs. McDonald has written this letter in
order that other suffering women may
secure from Wine of Cardui the same
relief she got from it.
"For four years I suffered with torpid
liver until my skin looked yellow and dull.
I then found my kidneys were affected and
had severe pains across my back, and I felt
ever since. 1 know there is nothing better
for a sick woman who wishes to enjoy per
fect health and am very pleased to give my
hearty endorsement.”
No suffering woman can afford to
ignore such a Tetter as Mrs. McDonald
writes. Her plans and advice have
proved valuable in building.up.one of
the greatest women’s organizations in^, i
the united States and she takes time to
give advice which she knows will help *
you.
Do not delay in securing this medi
cine. There is nothing to gain and
everything to lose by delay. The choice
is before you. Will or will you not
secure relief now by taking Wine of
Cardui? All druggists sell 81.00 bottles
of Wine of Cardui as well as 25c pack
ages of Thedford’s Black-Draught.
