Cause of Your Suffering.

Just bilious attack and a slight
deposit of uric acid. Now, calomel
and similar mercurial purgatives do
not dissolve and expel the uric acid
sediment that forms from undigest-

poisonous acid is not expelled it &C
'lmulates quickly, thiCkens the blood
ana settles in joints and muscles. The
JOINTS and muscles then become stiff.
An attempt 10 cure this rheuma-
ism must be directed toward remov-
