Text:
To everyone suffering with rheumatism, I make this unlimited offer. Frederick Dyer, Correponding Sec'y: I'll send you the drafts the same days I get your coupon - fresh from laboratory, ready to begin their cure the minute you put them on. They are curing every stage and condition of this disease, whether chronic or acute - muscular, sciatic, lumbago or gout - no matter where located or how severe.
