WHAT TEA DOES TO
RHEUMATICS.

When you next take tea, think of this.
Tea contains 175 grains of Uric Acid in
every pound.
Meat contains only FIVE to seven grains

Urlc Acid accumulates from food when
the digestive apparatus cannot create
enough AK aline elements Qike soda) TO
neutralize it.
This Acid collects urea, or WORKOUT
waste matter, from the system.
That Urea enters the blood when Al
kaline action has not previously dis
solved it.
BY and by the waste matter reaches
the joints and muscles. through circula-
ton of the blood.
There it gradually deposits in solid
particles, like graduated sugar.
These solid particles grind between the
Joints and muscles at every movement.
This grinding causes irritation and
pain.
These in turn may develop infamma-

bestirs Nature to help herself.
She proceeds TO coat the hard Uric
particles over with cushions Of pulpy
mucous, like the first healing strata Of
an outer sore.
This puIPy covering grows to the
bones, as we'll as TO the particles depos-

joints" almost inhexible. and usually
fixed in a Bonded position, from the pain

That Is Rheumatism at its worst.
1t Is bad enough before it gets that
far.
There is but one sure way of curing
Rheumatism. The first step is to neu-
tralize the Uric Acid already in the sys-
tenn. Next, to dissolve. and carry away,
the hard deposits that grind between the
Joints. Then get the digestive apparatus
into such healthy condition that II will.
