One Of the most valuable developments Of
nodern science along the line of human neces-
ity is the National Weather Bureau at WASH
ngton. Experience has shown that eighty-six
Der cent. of the predictions of the signal service

luestionAbly of the greatest advantage to the
'eaman, the agriculturist and the entire COM
nercial world. The service has proven its
by its usefulness, for in past times
he facilities for foretelling atmospheric

were aching limbs, twinging joints or

were usually correct, and hence naturally
the inquiry as to the relation between
the human system and the weather. The body

f~oretells changes in the atmosphere long before
they occur, and this fact has been taken advan-
tage of by physicians who, when all other
fail, prescribe q change of air, thus
the body may find an atmospheric con-
dition better suited to its needs. And yet the
real relation between the human body and the
has never been fully understood, nor
has there ever been, until now, G correct ex-
Of what rheumatism (Which seems in
with the atmosphere) really is. 1t was
originally thought by many to be . trouble in
the joints, and as such was treated in the most
not to say ridiculous, manner. This
theory became dispelled when the same trouble
attacked the muscles, and the feeling then pre-
vailed that 1t was purely q muscular disorder.
But this idea was found to te too narrow, and
now it is universally conceded that rheumatism
is q blood disease. And what O terrible disease
It is. 1t often comes without warning and pros
trates the system with agony. Again its begin
ming is gradual, and its growth slow. In its
acute form it manifests itself in every conceiy-
shape and always accompanied by intense
pain. At one time it is infiammatory, at another

in whatever manner it appears 1t is terribly

and annoyance Of rheumatism are increased
by its great danger for it is liable to attack the
BRAN or heart at any moment, thereby causing
instant DEATH. Indeed, nearly every case Of
heart-disease with all its dreadful s~uddenness
which has ever occurred, can be traced more or
less direct to rheumatic causes. In its chronic
form it ~stiffeps the joints, contracts the mus
cles, undermines the health and rtins the Life.
It frequently attacks men and women who are
apparently in perfect health. Indeed, it is as
q eatly to be dreaded as any possible form OF.
physical woe.
But, however severe its effects may be, the
exact cause Of this blood trouble has been an
undecided question, and it is only within the
past year that any decision upon the subject
has been reached. In ord r to fully determine
what the cause of rheumatic disorders really
was, certain authorities sent letters of inquiry
from Washington to the leading practicing
physicians of the land, and these inquiries were
responded to quite generally, thus furnishing
data Of great value to science and mankind.
IA yiews held by the doctors are of q varied
nature, but so overwhelming q proportion hold
to one belief as to leave but little doubt that it is
the correct one. This BELIEF, briefly stated, is
tina uric acid in the blood causes rheumatism,
and that it is only by removing this poisonous
acid that rheumatic or neuralgia 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 it be removed" Uric acid is q
waste material of the body which the kidneys
ened they cannot throw it from the system.
Restore the kidneys and you restore the power
that will force the uric acid from the system
and thus Danish the rheumatic agonies which
it causes. This is reason it is science. No
one whose kidneys are in q perfect condition
wis ever troubled with rheumatism, and no
rheumatic sufferer, however slight the pain
may be, has perfect kidneys. The conclusion
of this truth is inevitable perfect kidneys
means freedom from rheumatism.
When rheumatism has manifested itself in
any special part OF the body, attempts have
usually been made to treat that part of the
body. As q result, the pain has departed but
the disease has remained, lying snbtly concealed
and ready to break out at some unexpected
moment. Checking the pain in any single To-
cality only ~scatters the disease through the
system, when, if the seat of the disorder, which
are the huneys, were reached, o complete cure
would be the result. The way, therefore, to
expel this rank and poisonous acid before it
assumes an infiammatory or chronic form is by
keeping the kidneys in absolute health. This
is no easy thing to do, and no means has, until
within the past few years, been known which
would successfully reach and affect these great
organs. At last, however, scientists have dis

previously but little known to science and
unknown to medicine, possessed marvellous
qualities adapted for the kidneys. These leaves
have been skillfully combined in the remedy
now known as Warmers Safe Kidney and Live
Cure. It is, up to the present time, the only
known preparation that acts so directly upoT
the kidneys as to ~effectually cure the varioul
dangerous forms of kidney disease, and henc,
remove all uric acid from the blood. As a result
the cures it has been the means of performing
are really very remarkable. Indeed, there ar,
thousands of persons in America to-day VIII,
owe their restoration to health and entire free
dom from rheumatism to this simple yet pow
erful remedy, which is known universally
manufactured in Rochester, N. Y. and sold il
every drug store in the land.

The theory of the doctors as above explained
finds its confirmation in the fact that when tn
kidneys have been cured, rheumatism is com
pletely removed. This is not, of course, Away

order who have been entirely cured by follow

kidneys could have been restored to their usua

These are some Of the real and scientific fact
regarding rheumatism, attested by the highes

only correct ones ever brought forth. We ar

hence they will be the accepted belief and prac

plain truths before them, they certainly cal
