THE CAUSE REVEALED.
Discovery OF Il Subtle aud Lie.
Destroying Acid.
LODGED IN THE BODY.
Tho Way by Which II Cots Into tho
Systcm-Some Now Scientific Facts
of Great Value aud Interest.

"Any man or woman who can gt
through tho trying winters mud springs
Of this climate without suffering from
rheumatism or neuralgia pains OF some
kind is decidedly fortunate" |, was
Dr.. Hamilton, tho popular physician,
who declared thiswhlle talking to some
friends ut tho club. Continuing, he said
"What it Is that causes those pains
has been Il greater mystery to physi'
clans aud scientists than almost any
other question. Some have declared
that they are tho results OF II severe
cold. others that imprudent exposure
has caused them, and still others that
they arise IRON blood poisoning.
IN order to obtain, ii possible, Il cor.
rect theory OF rheumatism and I'LL the
aches and paiua which accompany it,
certain authorities In Washington have
taken steps to obtain the views OF tho
physicians OF America upon this sub.
eCt. These views are OF n varied na-
turc, hut 80 overwhelming q proportion
hold TO one belief as to leave but little
doubt that it Ia q correct one. This DO.
lief, briefly stated. Is that uric acid In
tho blood causes rheumntisIn, and that
it Is only by removing this poisonous
acid that rheumatism or neuralgia trou.
bles, in all their terrible forms can be
cured. This being true. the Important
question arises. How does tho uric acid
get into tho blood, and how eau 1t best
be removed?'
uric acid finds its way into the
blood because the Kidneys are weak
enel and cannot throw it from tho
system. Restore the kidneys, and you
will restore tho power that will force tho
uric acid from the body, aud thus
Danish tho rheumatic agouies which it
causes.
This is reason; it is science; i. is
true. No ono whose kidneys are in 4
perfect condition was ever troubled
with rheumatism, aud no rheumatic
sufferer, however slight the pain may
be, has perfect kidneys. The conclusion
OF the truth il inevitable. Perfect
kidneys mean freedom from rheuma-
tisn.
There never was, and probably never
will be. but one remedy that can, in
every case. drive uric acid irom the
blood. That remedy Is Warmers Sufe
Cure. It cure, rheumatism by elimin.
atiny the deadly uric acid. 1t banishes
pain by removing the cause. 1t acts
directly upon the kidneys. Within an
hour from the time it is taken, its inAu.
cnce will be felt. 1t sustains the or.
sans that sustain life, the forces tina.
make the blood. For ladies during the
severe ordeals through which they arc
compelled to pass it Is Invaluable. For
the nervous troubles OF youth and tho
debility that precedes old age it has no
rival. There are thousands OF men, aud
women, too, who are in perfect health
to-day wholly by reason Of its grea.
power, aud it is the most potent remedy
the world has ever known"

You are all cowards-cowards-

They laughed at the boy, but he re-
peated over and over that he would
follow the assassin If he had a weapon
AT length somebody showed a revol.

Not another word did the boy say.
With the loaded revolver clutched In
his hand, he hurried out of the camp
on the trail of Hank Bloodgood.
"Thet's the last we'll ever see O. Bold
Billy" some one declared. He'd be
skeered ter death ter see Bloodgood.
You've lost your gun, Bolly."
"Mebbe," returned the man who had
loaned the boy the revolver.
At sunset a crowd of loafers were
