A HUMAN FIRE.
The Phenomenon Of a Burning Mine Re-
peated in the Physical System.


A few years ago one of the most imror-
tant coal mines in Pennsylvania caught
fire. 1t started slowly but soon obtained
such headway that 1t spread through the
greater PARTON of the entire mine. To
flood 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 "lf the supply of air. His
advice was followed and the flames were
finally subdued.
To compare the condition Of this mine
with many phases OF the human system, is
most natural aud appropriate. Fire in
the blood" is not a mere expression, it is a
most serious fact. How it originates, it
may be impossible to say; but that 1t burns
aud RACES with an 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. II is too often made the channel
through which poison and death are trans
ported. Poisonous aoids coming through
the veins and arteries inflame and cause a
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
| uustrung; they carry pains 10 the muscles
and leave agonies in the joints: they bring
destruction instead of strength; they devas
r Al
require help, and they hasten the approach
of death in It's most horrible form. These
things have been felt by innumernbc peo
pie who have been the victims OF rheumatic
disorders, aud the agonies they have en-
| dured confirm this description.
There is but one way by which this fire
IN the blood can be extinguished, and that
is by shutting of the supply OF these pois
unous acids The Tactic, 1.-the and uric
acids come in to the blood through the liver
aud kidneys, and they remain in solution
IN the blood producing inAammutory
rheumatism, sclatica, lumbago, pcuralgla,
gouC aud all rheumatic fevers and alice
lions. When they are deposited as gritty
crystals in and near the ioiuls, they cause
artcular rheumatism; when in the muscles,
| muscular rheumatism and lumbagc; when
IN the tissues covering the nerves, sciatica;
when in the lace, head and nerves general
| ly, neuralgia. In every case they are pain
! full in most instances, dangerous. Iullam.
matory rheumatism is likely to locate in
some joint and become chronic, or suddenly
attack the brain or heart, causing apnpleXy
or heart disease. The fire in the blood
must be eXtnguished supply must be
shut off. This can only be done by guard
| ing the portals to the blood-the kidneys
aud liver; and no means has ever been
found for accomplishing this which can
equal Warmers Safe Rheumatic Cure. It
acts directly upon the seat of the disorder,
it extngushes the fire by controlling the
supply and removing the cause.
