and Sulphur at eleven O'Clock
No matter what time. m the preceding
day. you have taken these medicines.
they will climax at the fixed hours here
stated and reveal certain symptoms al

How do you account for this?
How account for a Rheumatic per-

Rheumatism is simply Uric Acid in
the blood Can Uric Acid have its time
limit, like other chemicals. but reflect
lngI backward like a barometer?
Uric Acid is due to a lack of Alkaline
material in the blood. This Acid absorbs
the debris, or waste matter, Of the sys-
tenn.
1t carries this waste matter into the
blood, when there are not enough Aka
line elements Qike salt or sOda) to
neutralize the Uric Acid and to free the
debris before it reaches the kidneys.
AS the blood circu1ates through the
system, it then deposits small particles
of this waste matter in the joints and
muscles.
These particles are like granulated
sugar, or sand. and they grind between
the joints and muscles at every move
ment.
This grinding. causes intense pain and
Inflammation, frequently. If the disease
be not checked. the Inflammation will
cause the Uric particles to be coated
with a feshy cushion, which in time
grows to the joints as we'll. Then "bony
joints and crooked limbs ensue.
The only way to cure Rheumatism is
- -
blood into Alkaline Then to dis
solve. and carry away, the deposits in
joints and muscles.
Then. to get the digestive organs into
a normal condition. so they will secrete,
without further help. less Acid and
more Alkalines- Upon this condition
depends cure. and the permanence OF
cure. Butt is useless to kill Rheu-
matism If we also kill the stomach in
doing so.
Few drugs powerful enough to dis
solve Uric Acid deposits are safe to
take into the stomach. This is why
so-called quick cures" are dangerous.
rheumatism is slowly acquired. and
so. cure cannot be expected in a few
weeks treatment. and never by external
applications. The first essential in a
Rheumatic cure is safety-the second.
effectiveness-the third. permanence.
In medical experience Of thirty years

combined these three qualities. 1t took
nearly ten years Of my life to discover
and perfect that remedy.

prescription ON which l daily stake for

After 1000 test cases I found that 'Dr.

If it fails. the treatment and six bot
