Rheumatism (s no respecter of age, sex, color, or rank. , If not the most dangerous of human afflictions It is one of the most painful.

Rheumatism Is caused by uric acid which Is generated In tho bowels and absorbed into the blood. It la tho func tion of tho kidneys to filter this acid irom tho blood and cast it out in tht urine; tho pores of tho skin are also a. means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the akin pores arc closed thus forcing the, kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fall to cllmlpato this urjc acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through tho system, eventually settling in the Joints and muscles causing stiffness, Bareness nnd pain catted rheumatism. At tho first twlngoof rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablcspoonful in a glass of water and drink before break fast each morning for a week. This Is said to eliminate uric acid by stimu lating tho kidneys to nnrmnl ar.tinn thus ridding tho blood of these impur- Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and Is mado from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with llthla and Is used with excellent results by thou sands of folks who are snbject to rheu matism.
