The Most Common Cause of Suffering. .Rheumatism causes more pain than any other disease, for the reason that it is the most common of all ills, and it is certainly gratifying to sufferers to know tht Chamberlain's Liniment will afford relief, and make rest and sleep possible.

A great many people imagine they have heart trouble when the fact is that the whole trouble lies in the stomach. The pains in the side around the region of the heart are not necessarily heart trouble.

It will not be very long until all these "heart pains" will disappear. Take Kodol now and until you know you are right again.
