eSSary to sustain our bodies.
The disease is caused by an ex-
cess of uric acid in the blood,
which gets into the cir.
culation because Of indi-
gestien, constipation, weak
kidney action, and other ir-.
regularities of the system,
which are sometimes consid-
cred of no importance. This
uric acid produces an infIamed
and acrid condition of the
blood, and the circulation, in
stead of nourishing the differ
ent portions of the body, con-
tinually deposits into the
nerves, muscles, joints and
bones the irritating pain-pro-
ducing acid with which it is.
filled. Then follow the pain
full and toFturing symptoms of
Rheumatism. The very life
and vitality of the blood is
being destroyed by the uric
acid poison, and every muscle,
nerve and sinew of the body
suffers in consequence.
We do not claim for
S. S. S. that it is anything
more than a first-class blood

Of the disease, and it is well

Lucian d. Humphrey, one of the
we'll known Mob Hill fruit growers,
has been chosen by the board of
county commissioners as road super
visor for the district embracing Mob
Hill, Wide Hollow and the Ahtanum
valley. His appointment was made
at the meeting Tuesday afternoon.
Six road supervisors will have
charge of the work of road building
in Yakima county during the year,
the additional appointments being
made by the commissioners because
of the demand that better roads be
furnished throughout the entire
county. The other five supervisors
were named at previous meetings of
the board. The Mob Hill and All
tanum district is one of the largest
and most important in the county
and will take nearly all of the time
of the rancher.
