ASHBURTON. CAN RHEUMATISM BE CURED ? THIS is a universal complaint. By some It is considered to rest merely in the blood. Others think the cause of Pain, Inflammation, and Swelling is owing to the sheatha of the Mu.cles and Nerves wanting the required serum derived from the blood, which is necessary to lubricate the sheaths of the muscles and nerve 3 Rheumatism will never be cured while the tongue is red or furred, showing chronic inflammatory action in the muc us membrane lining of the stomach, liver, and bowels. OUR REMEDY for this Complaint consists of Fomenting, Steaming, Sweat ing, Rubbing, Blistering, and Bandag ing in their different forms, and WE NEVER FAIL TO CURE. Avoid all Stimulants, Ale, Porter, Spirits, Medicine or Tobacco; little animal food. These precautions and treatment would save thousands from a painful existence. w. hTrule* PROPRIETOR, MATLOCK HOUSE,
