we often have lumbago, disease of the

THE TERRORS OF WAR

Pluck and stamina, vim and vigor,
bravery and efficiency are all dependent
on good health. Whether victory re-
suits from the lannon's mouth depends
on the men behind the guns. 1t only
takes a Touchdown blow to finish a
man with shaky nerves, with headache
or backache bilious-with kidneys or
liver impaired.
II was not until the discovery by Sir
Arthur Gerod, in 1s4s, that the blood
of equity patients contained uric acid in
an excessively large amount, that much
attention was paid to this subject.
Later scientific men learned that in
govt, also rheumatism, the kidneys do
not work properly TO throw off the uric
acid poison; consequently uric acid
crystals are deposited in and about
the joints, in the muscles, where an
inflammation is set up in the nearby
tissues.
Hague has said, that "gout is rheu-
matism, and rheumatism is gout.n If
uric acid is formed in excess within the
body it is passed on to the kidneys,
which act as a filter to pass off this
poison. If the excess is not excreted
by the kidneys, it is distributed through
the tissues. The choice sites for such
storage are in the joints, muscle
sheaths, where the circulation is weak.
