RHEUMATISM.

Thisna painful and very unpleasant disease.
There are two kinds of rheumatism; acute and
chronic. 1t Is caused by an improper action Of
the kidneys. The kidneys do not properly perform
their work, and q poisonous material-uric
acid-is left In the blood. This poison settles in
the different tissues and causes soreness or stiff
ness of the parts. When 1t fixes upon the heart it
Is very dangerous and liable to cause death at any
time. The parts most frequently affected are the
large joints of the lower extremetes as the knees
ankles, hips, etc. In the upper extremeties the
shoulders elbows and wrists suffer the most fre-
quently.
Sometimes 1t affects the nerves and we have
sciatica and neuralgia.
It also attacks the muscles of the back and lum-
bago results.
Acute rheumatism comes on with chill and
fever, the joints swell and arc infamed, red
streaks follow the course Of the cords in aggravat
ed cases. During all kinds of rheumatism, but es-
pecially In those cases accompanied by fever
th.rs Is sour smelling acid perspiration. Tho
water Is nearly .iHays dark colored. and deposit.
a red sediment.
In chronic rheumatism there h no fever, but
the joints arc sore and painful, the muscles are
stiff and weak, the person cannot use themselves
with their accustomed ease. The exciting causes
are anything that weaken the kidneys; such as ex-
posure to cold getting the feet body wet strain
ing or sitting bent over too much, bad water and
such drinks as stimulate the kidneys too much; a.
whisky. beer. etc.
General nervous debility may also cause weak
ness Of the kidneys resulting In rheumatisp. &.
Sometimes there Is a hereditary predisposition
to the trouble.
Rheumatism IS a constant source of annoyance
to the American physician because he can not ef.
feet permanent cure.
Our herb remedies tone up the kidneys and
eliminates the poison from the blood. thus curing
the disease.
Liniments and rubbing are good to take sore
ness and stiffness out of part but arc not Of
such = nature as will cure the disease. This can
be done only by the internal remedies. Our
treatment has proved uniformly successful in the
treatment Of this disease and we can say to the
sufferer We can cure you.
All medicines used are herbs and very simple.
