rheumatism is simply Uric Acid in
the blood Can Uric Acid have its time
limit like other chemicals but rejecting
backward like a barometer?
Uric Acid is due TO a lack Of Alkaline
material in the blood. This Acid alb
serbs the debris, or waste matter, OF
the system.

blood, when there are not enough Aka

debris before it reaches the kidneys.
AS -the blood circulates through the
system. it then deposits small particles
Of this waste matter in the joints and
muscles.
These particles are like graduated
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 be joints as well. Then 'bony
joints" and crooked limbs ensue.
The only way to cure rheumatism is
to convert the Acid condition of the
blood into an Alkaline Then to dis

joints and muscles.

also kill the stomach IN doing so.
Few drugs powerful enough to dissolve
Uric Acid deposits are safe to take into
the stomach. This is why so-caIed

rheumatism is slowly acquired. and
so a cure cannot be expected in a few
weeks treatment, and never by cXter-
