- The Multtiflex 1 Outdoor Gas Arc tampr is the Store's Best

". People usually form their opinion of a store by looking at its exterior. They know as they look at it whether they want to enter and make purchases or not. THE MULTIFLEX is the most perfect agent for putting the stamp of impressiveness on the store. It throws 500 candle power of light down upon the sidewalk and "show windows. This powerful, white light has a great drawing power and appeals to people on the street a block or more in each direction. This magnet of trade can be had for $16.50 cash or $17.50 time. Terms,. $4.00 down and $1.25 a month. It burns but 2 cent's worth of gas an hour. Ask us to send a lighting expert to help you plan a more progressive advertising campaign. , . (.

Rheumatism

A Home Care 6iv?n by One Who Had It

In the spHng of 1893 I was attacked by Muscular and Inflammatory Rheumatism. I suffered as only those who have it know, for over three years. I tried remedy after remedy, and doctor after doctor but such relief as I received was only temporary. Finally, I found a remedy that cured me com- ? lately, and it has never returned, have given it to a number who were terribly afflicted and even bedridden with Rheumatism, and it effected a cure in every case. I want every sufferer from any fnrm of rheumatic trouble to ty

this marvelous healing power. Don t send a cent; simply mail your nam address and I will send it free

to try. If. after you have used it and it has" proven itself to be that ong-looked-for means of curing your Rheumatism, you may send the price of it, one dollar, but, understand. I do not want your money unless you are perfectly satisfied to send it. Isn't that fair? Why

suffer anv longer when positive re
