A HUMAN FIRE.
The Phenomenon OF a Burning Minis Re.
peated in the Physical System.


A few years ago one Of the most impor-
tant coal mines in Pennsylvania caught fire.
1t started slowly but soon obtained such
Roadway that it spread through the great
er portion of the entire mine. To food it
with water would extinguish the fire, but
well nigh ruin the mine; and still the flames
continued to increase. At that juncture a
young man stepped forward and suggested
that all the entrances and vent holes of the
mine be covered and secured, thus shutting
off the supply of air. His advice was fol-
lowed and the flames were finally subdued.
TO compare the condition OF this mine
with many phases of the human system, is
most natural ana appropriate. . Fire in
the blood" Is not a mere expression, it is a
most serious fact. How it originates, it
NAV be impossible to saw; but that it burns
and RACES with increasing fury, the one
who is its victim only too painfully knows.
The blood is the life. 1t is designed by ma
ture to purify, strengthen and sustain the
system. 1t is too often made the channel
through which poison and death are trans
ported. Poisonous acids coming through
the veins and ar, cries inhame and cause q
fire just as real as the one which existed IN
the mine. They burn and irritate, causing
the brain to become weak and the nerves
unStrung; they carry pains to the muscles
and leave agOnies in the joints; they bring
destruction instead of strength; they de-
vastate the very portions OF the body that
proach of death IN its most horrible form.
! These things have been felt by innumera-
bic people who have been the victims of
rheumatic disorders, and the agonies they
have endured confirm this description.
There is but one way by which this fire
in the blood can be extinguished, and that
is by shutting off the supply of these poi
SOnous acids. The Tactic, lithic and uric
| acids come in to the blood through the liver
| and kidneys, and they remain in solution
| in the blood producing inhammatOry rheu-
matism, sciatica, 1umbago, neuralgia, govt
| and all rheumatic feyers and affections.
! When they are deposited as &. itty crystals
! in and near the joints, they cause articulaT
| rheumatism; when in the muscles, n1uScu-
! lar rheumatism and 1umbago; when in the
| tissues covering the norveS, Sciatica; when
in the face, head and nerves generally
| neuralgia. In every case they are painful
| in most instances, dangerous. 1nf1amma-
tory rheumatism is likely to locate in some
| joint and become chronic, or suddenly at
tack the brain or heart, causing apoplexy
| or heart-diSeaSe. The fire in the blood
! must be extinguished-the supply must be
| shut off. This can only be done by guard
ing the portals to the blood-the kidneys
! and liver; and no means have ever beer
| found for accomplishing this which car
| equal Warmers Safe Rheumatic Cure. Il
| acts directly upon the seat of the disorder;
| it extin guishes the fire by controlling the
supply and removing the cause.
The well known standing of II. II. War
ner & Co., of Rochester, n. Y, the remarka
BILE success which Warmers Safe Cure ha!
achieved, being indorsed by no less per
sonage than Dr.. Robert A. Gum, Dean o.
the United States Medical College, New
York, and the fidelity with which they
| have carried out all their promises to the
| public should be a sufficient warrant tina
| the above statements are true. They, how
| ever, guarantee to cure ninety-fve per cent
! Of all rheumatic troubles, especially acute
knowing full well that the demonstrated
| power of the remedy iustifies them in 81
| doing. Nothing can be fairer than this
| and those who suffer in the future from
! rheumatism with such an offer before them
| do so on their own responsibility, and cal
blame no one if living pain and untimely
death are the results.
