A HUMAN FIRE.
The Phenomenon of Burning Mine Re-
peated in the Physical
system.

System.
A few years ago one OF the most i'm
portant coal mines in Pennsylvania
caught fire. 1t started slowly but soon
obtained such headway that it spread
through the greater portion of the en-
tire mine. To Hood it with water would
extinguish the fire, but well nigh ruin
the mine; and still the flames continued
to increase. At that juncture 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 followed and the flames were quick
ly subdued.
To compare the condition of this
mine with many phases of the human
system, is most natural and appropri-
ate. Fire in the blood is not a mere
expression, 1t is most serious fact.
How it originates. it may be impossible
to say; but that it burns and RACES with
an increasing fury, the one who is its
victim only too painfully knows. The
blood is the life. 1t is designed by nature
to purify, strengthen and sustain the
system 1t is too often made the chan
mel through which poison and death
are transported. Poisonous acids COM
ing through the veins and arteries in
flame and cause a fire just as real rs the
fire 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
devastate the very portions of the body

the approach of death in its most horri-
BILE form. These things have beel felt
by innumerable people who have been
victims of rheumatic disorders, ard
the agonies they have endured confirm
this description.
There is but one way by which this
fire in the blood can be cNtinguished.
and that is by shutting of the supply
of these poisonous acids. The tactic
lithic and uric acids come into the
blood through the liver and kidneys.
and they remain in solution in the
blood producing Iniiammatory rhcuma-
tism. sciatica, lumbago. neuralgia. gout
and all rheumatic fevers and affecta-
tons. When they are deposited rs grit
ty CRYSTALS in and near the joints. they
cause articular rheumatism; when in
the muscles, muscular rheumatism and
lumbago; when in the tissues covering
the nerves. sciatica; when in the face.
head and nerves generally, neuralgia.
In every case they are painful; in most
instances. dangerous. lntiammatory
rheumatism is likely to locate IN some
joint and become chronic. or suddenly
attack the brain or herat. causing apo
plexy or heart disease. The fire in the
| blood must be cxtinguished-the sup
ply must be shut of. This can only be
done by guarding the portals TO the
blood-thc kidneys and liver; and no
means has ever been found for accom-
plishing this which can beat Warner S
Safe Rheumatic cure. II acts directly
upon the seat of the disorder; il eX-
tinguishcs the fire by controlling the
supply and removing the cause.
The well known standing Of II. H.
Warner & Co. of Rochester, n. Y, the
remarkable success which Warner sSafe
Cure has achieved. being indorsed by
no less parsonage than DIR. Robert A.
Gum. Dean of the United States Mcdi-
cal college, New York. and the fidelity
with which they have carried out all
their promises to the public, should be
n sfficient warrant that the above state
ments are true. They. however. guar
antee to cure ninety-ive per cent of all
rheumatic troubles. especially acute,
knowing full well that the demon
stratnd power of the remedy justities
them in so doing. Nothing can be fair
cr than this. and those who suffer in
the future from rheumatism with such
an offer before them. do so on their
own responsibility, and can blame no
one If living pain and untimely death
