Mr. Sides’ reputation bade fair
to be gone. But he was an

ounce RHEUMATISM _

Isham Cslifornia Water of Life surpasses all other remedies in the cure of Rheuma-
tism. In facp being the true solvent of uric stud and lime deposits in the body, it may
be said to be the only cure. ; 8m SEVENTH ST., WASHINGTON, D. C.

I have been troubled with rheumatism for over a year. I have consulted physi-
cians without avLil. I have used Lithia and other well-known remedies. and have
even sought a change of climate, but have steadily grown worse. I was unable to
turn my head, and lameness was general throughout my body. I tried your waters
with li€tle confidence. The results have been little short of marvelous. ’I‘o—day I
feel practically a well man; the lameness has disappeared, I can move my head
withou: pain, and my system is generally toned up.
