gradual, and its growth slow. ln Its
acute form it manifeSts itself in every
conceivable shape and always &C
companied by intense pain. AT one
time it is infiammatory, at another
neuralgia. Sometimes 1t assumes
the form of gout, and again that OF
p,eurisy or lumbago; but in whatever
manner it appears it is terribly pain
full and always 10 be dreaded. The
pain and annoyance of rheumatism
is increased by its great danger for
it is liable to attack the brain or
heart at any moment, thereby caus'
ing instant death. Indeed, nearly
every case of heart disease with
all it's dreadful suddenness which
has ever occurred, can be traced
more or less directly to rheu-
matte canses. In its chronic
form it stifftns the joints, contracts
the muscles, undermines the health
and ruins the lite. 1t frequently
attacks men and women who are
apparently in perfect health. In
deed, it is as greatly to be dreaded
as any possible form of physical woe.
But. however severe it's effects may
be. the exact cause of this blood
trouble has been an undecided ques-
ton, and it is only within the past
year that any decision upon the sub
iect has been reached. In order to
fully determine what the cause OF
rheumatic disorders really was,
certain authorities sent letters Of in
qniry from Washington to the lead
ing practicing physicians of the land,
and these inquiries were responded
to quite generally, thus furnishing
data of great value to science and
mankind. The views held by the
doctors are of varied nature, but
so overwhelming a proportion hold
to one belief as to leave but little
doubt that it is the correct one.
This belief, briefly stated, is that uric
a cid in the blood causes rheumatism,
and that it is only by removing this
poisonous acid that rheumatic or
neuralyic troubles in all their terrible
forms can be cured. This being true,
the important question arises
''How does this poisonous uric acid
get into the blood, and how can IL
best be removed ?" Uric acid is a
waste material of the DO W which
the kidneys should carry out, but
because they are weakened they can
not throw it from the system. Re,
store the kidneys and you restore
the power that will force the uric
acid from the system and TINS banisf
the rheumatic agonics which il
causes. This is reason; it is science
No one whose kidneys are in a per
feet condition was ever troubled
with rheumatism, and no rheuma,it
sufferer, however slight the pain may
be, has perfect kidneys. The conclu
sion of this truth is inevitable; perfect
kidneys mean freedom from rheuma-
tism.
When rheumatism has manifested
itself in any special part of the body
attempts have usually been made t.
2 treat that part of the body. AS I
