A HUMAN FIRE.
The Phenomenon of n Burning Mine 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,
or 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 end suggested
that all the entrances and veat holes OF the
mine be covered and secured, thus shutting
of 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 and appropriate. " Fire in
the blood" is not mere expression, it 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 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 infiame 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
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
most require help, and they hasten the ap-
proach of death in its most horrible form.
These things have been felt by innumera-
BILE 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-
matsm, sciatica, lumbago, neuralgia, govt
and all rheumatic feverS and affections.
When they are deposited as g itty crystals
in and near the joints, they cause articular
rheumatism; when in the muscles, muscu-
lar rheumatism and lumbago; when in the
tissues covering the nerves, sciatlca; when
in the face, head and nerves generally,
| neuralgia. In every case they are painful;
in most instances dangerous. lnflamma-
tory rAeuma ism is likely to locate in some
joint and become chronic, or suddenly at
tack the brain or heart, causing apoplexy
or heart-dlsease, The fire in the blood
must be extihguished-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 been
| found for accomplishing this which can
