RHEUMATISM.

LUMBAGO AND SCIATICA

The attacks are kenerally brought oh by chills when the body is overheated, or by exposure to damp or cold draughts, which act, not upon the bones or muscles, but upon the uric acid in the blood, which is the cause 01 the diseased Uric acid is found in small quantities in many articles of diet, which v^hen consumed pass into the blood. The failure of the liver and kidneys to filter and ab-; sorb this acid leads to an accumulation in the system, tends to clog the circulation, and hardens the tissues forming the blood vessels. Thus every moveinenj; of the affected parts causes you intense agony?: The pains are affected more or less by cold or heat. A damp day will double you up, or the\ warmth of the bed will intensify the pain. " I have been troubled with Rheumatism ever since I was a. youth of 17 (I am now 46)", writes Mr Hugh Littleton, Aprimu, Southland, " and have tried almost every remedy advertised and otherwise, but it has remained for Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills to give me relief and hope of a permanent cure. IJ have taken two Indian Root Pills at bedtime every night for over twelve months, and with the exception of one or two slight attacks, I have been absolutely free for many months. Only those who have suffered from Rheumatism* can conceive the excruciating, pain, and many a time I have'had it so bad in the shoulders that I had to get someone to assist me to put on my clothes or to take them off., Dr Morse's # Indian Root Pills are indeed a wonderful remedy, correcting and regulating the whole system. Other pills are no'good, they gripe and scour your stomach and intestines, and a day or two after you are just as constipated as ever. You have my full permission to use this." In order to obtain permanent relief Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills and Comstock's Nerve and Bone Liniment should be used as directed. Obtainbo posted by tne W. H.
