A HUMAN FIRE.
The Phenomenon of a burning Mine
Repeated in the Phys
zeal 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 Roadway that it spread
through the greater portion of the entire
mine To flood it with water would ex-
tinguish the fire, but well nigh ruin the
mine; and still the flames continued to
increase. At that junction 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 finally sub
dued.
To compare the condition of this mine
with many phases of the human syS-
tenn, is most nataral and appropriate.
''F'ire in the blood" is not mere express
sion, it is a most serious fact. How it
originates, it may be impossible to say;
but that it burns and RACES with an in
creasing fury, the one who is its victim
only too painfully knows. The blood is
the life. 1t IS designed by nature to pu-
rify, strengthen and sustain the system.
1t is too often made the channel through
which poison and death are transported.
Poisonous acids coming through the
veins and arteries infame and cause 4
ed III the mine. They burn and irritate
causing the brain to become weak and
the nerves uEstrung; they carry pains
to the muscles and leave agOnieS in the
joints; they bring destruction instead of
strength; they devastate the very por-
tiOnS Of the body that most require help,
and they hasten the approach Of death
in it's most horrible form. These things
have been felt by innumerable people
who have been the victims of rheumat-
ic disorders, and the agonies they have
endured confirm this description.
There is but one way by which the fire
in the blood can be extinguished, and
that is by shutting off 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 produc cling in

go, neuralgia, govt and allrheumatic fe-
vers and affections. When they are de-
posted as gritty crystals in and near the
joints, they cause articular rheumatism;

in the blood must be extinguIshed-the

be done by guarding the portals to the
blOod-the kidneys and liver; and no

pllshing this which can equal Warmers
