INTERNAL FIRE.

A few years ago one of the most important cil Sin SAW. caught fire It sUr ed slowly, but soon obtained such headway that it spiead through the greater portion of the entire mine. To flood it with water would extinguish the fire, but well nigh ruin the mino; and still the flames continued to increase. At that juncture a voung man stepped forward and suggested that all the entrances and vent-holes of the mine be covered and secured, thus shutting off the supply of air His advice was followed, and the flames were finally subdued. • To compare the condition of this mine with many phases of the human system is most natural and appropriate. ' J .ro in the blood is not a mere expression, it is a most serious fact. How it originates, it may be impossible to say; but that it burns and rages with an increasing fury, the one who is is victim only too painfully knows. The blood is the life. It is designed by Nature to purify, strengthen, and sustain the system. It is too of ten made the channel through which poison and death are transposed. Poisonous _ acids coming through the veins and arteries inflame and causo° a fire just as real as the one which existed in the mine. They burn and irritate, causing the brain to become weak and the nerves unstrung; tbey carry painsi to the muscles, and leave agonies in the joints; they biing destruction instead of strength; they devastate the very portions of the body that most require help, and they hasten the approach of death in its most horrible form, lhese things have been felt by innumerable people who have been the victims of rheumatic disorders, and the agonies they have endured confirm this description. ~..,._ ... There is but one wav by which this tire in the blood can be extinguished, and that is by shutting off the supply of theße poisonous aw. a. The lactic, lithic, and uric acids como into the blood through the liver and kulncyj, and they remain iu solution in the blood, producing inflammatory rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, neusalgia, gout, and all rheumatic fevers and affections. When they are deposited as gritty crystals in and near the joints they cause articular rheumatism; when in the muscles, muscular rheumatism and lumbago ; when in the tissues covering the nerves, sciatica; when in the face, head, and nerves generally, neuralgia. In every case they are painful; in most instances, dangerous. Inflammatory rheumatism is likely to locate in some joint and become chronic, or suddenly attack the brain or heart, causing apoplexy or heart disease. The fire in the blood must bo extinguished-the supply must be shut off. This can only be done by guarding the-portals to the blood-the kidneys and liver; and no means has ever been found for accomplishing this which can equal Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure,- combined with "Warner's Safe Cure. They act directly upon the seat of the disorder, and extinguish the fire by contro ling the supply and removing the cause. • . „ „ toThe well-known standing of H. H. Warner and Co., of Rochester, London, Melbourne, Toronto, Frankfort, and Bombay, the remark j able success which Warner's Safe Cure hus ] achieved, being endorsed by medical men, the cler?y, barristers, and leading men in all walks oHife, and the fidelity with which they have carried out all their promises to the public, should be a sufficient warrant that the above statements are ti ue. They, however, guarantee to euro ninety-five per cent, of all rheumatic troubles, especially acute, if directions me followed, knowing full well that the demonstrated ~,•,!>■ „f their remedies justifies 1 hem in so iloin;,'. Nothing can be fairer than this, and those who suffer in the future from rheumatism ■with such an offer before them, do so on their own responsibility, and can blame no one if living pain-and untimely death are the results.
