WHAT TEA DOES TO
RHEUMATICS.

When you nsxt take tea, think Of this
Tea contains ITS grains OF Uric Acid in every
pound
Neat contains only i've to seven grains.
rheumatism is Uric Acid In the blood.
Uric Acid aecumulates from food when the d..
gestive apparatus cannot create enough Alkaline
elements (liks soda) to neut1alize It.
The Acid collects urea, OF worn-out waste
matter, from the system.
That Urea enters the blood when Alkaline &C.
ton has not previously dissolved It.
By and by the waste matter reaches the Joints
and muscles. through circulation Of the blood.
There is gradually deposits In solid particles
like granuated sugar.
These solid particles grind between he joints
and muscles with every movement.
This grinding causes irritation and pain.
These. in turn, may develop Inflammation and
swelling. That Inflammation bestirs Nature to
help herself.
She proceeds to coat the hard Uric particles
over with cushions OF pulpy mucus, Like the first
healing strata Of outer sore.
| This pulpy covering grows to tho bones, as
well to the particles deposited. There it
| hardens like plaster or sealing wax. Then We
| have Ebony joints" almost infexible, an dusually
! dxed in Bonded position, from the pain and In
fammat1on. .-.-z
That II rheumatism at Its worst. 9l-
1t is bad enough before It gets that far.
There Is but one sure way of curing Rheuma-
! tisn. The FIRST step is to neutrauze the Uric
Acid already IN the aystem. Next, to dissolve
| and carry away the hard deposits that Grind be-
tween the joints Then get the digestive ap-
paratus into such healthy condition that It will
| unaided produce less Uric Acid and more Aka
| lines. s.. ..
This IL what doctors generally have failed
! to do.
It is what I studied a lifetime to accomplish,
| and achieved only after many failures and thou
| sands Of experiments.
At last I found in Germany q Solvent which
| was not only effective, but absolutely safe to
| use.
Few agents powerful enough 10 Be effective In
| rheumatism safe.
Ny discovery, now called cdr. Shops Rheu-
matte Oure,' acts directly but internally upon
Uric Acid in the joints and muscles.
| It dissolves and carries OF the painful de-
| posits, producing an immediate Alkaline condi-
1 ton of the blood, and neutrauzing the Acid In
it which would have fed the Rheumatism and ex-
| tended the disease.
! It won't restore bony Joints to dsxibility and
it can't undo, in week. the damage caused BY
| years OF rheumatic condition.
| But it will benefit every case and tt viii entire
| ly cure most cases OF rheumatism
| So am I Of this that win supply Dr.
Shops Rheumatic Cure to any sick one who
writes me for it., on q months trial, at my

If II succeeds. the cost TO him u only $3.50
for the six-bottle treatment.
II it fails. bear the whole cost myself.

who shall pay.
Surely you will not continue to suffer when
