Uric acid accumulates from food
when the digestive apparatus can not
create enough alkaline elements Qike

This acid collects urea, or worm
out waste matter from the system.
That urea enters the blood when
alkaline action has not previously dis
solved it.
BY and by the waste matter reaches
the joints and muscles, through cir
culation Of the blood.
There it gradually deposits in solid
particles. like granulated sugar.
These solid particles grind between
the joints and muscles at every move
ment.
This grinding causes irritation and
pain.

She proceeds to coat the hard uric
particles over with cushions Of pulpy
mucous, like the first healing strata
of an outer sore.
This pulpy covering grows to the
