RHEUMATISM BODY RACKED WITH PAIN No other bodily guttering Is equal to that produced by the pain of Rhciti fnatiam. When the poisons and acids, which cause thisdisea.se, become in trenched in the blood there is hardly any part of the body that is not af fected. The muscles become sore aud drawn, the nerves twitch and sting, the joints inflame and swell, the bones ache, every movement is one ol agony, and the entire body is racked with pain. Rheumatism is brought on by indigestion, stomach troubles, torpid Liver, weak Kidneys and a general inactive state of the system. The refuse matter instead of pansing off through nature's svenues is left to sour and form uric acid, and other acrid poisons which are absorbed into the blood. Rheumatism does not affect an aiisc. in some cases it unci a wandering form ; it may be in the arms or legs one day and in the Boulders, feet, hands, back or other parts of the body the next. Others suffer more seriously, and are never free from pain. The uric acid and Other irritating substances find lodge ment ia the muscles and joints and as these deposits increase the mus cles become stiff and the Joints locked and immovable. It matters toot in what form the disease may be the cause is always the same a sour, acid condition of the blood. This vital stream has lost its purity and freshness, and instead of nourish ing and feeding the different parts With health-giving properties, it fills them with the acids and snlts of this painful and far-reaching disease. The cold and dampness of Winter always intensify the pains of Rheumatism, and the sufferer to get relief from the agony, rubs the affected parts with liniments, oils, lotions, etc., or uses plasters and other home remedies. These are desirable because they give temporary ease and comfort but have no effect on the real trouble which is in the blood and beyond the reach of such treatment. S. S.

Tme Laxative op Xnown There are two classes of remedies: those of known qual ity and which are permanently beneficial In effect, acting gently, In harmony with nature, when natureneeds assist ance and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo rarily, but Injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known Pleasant Svrup of Figs, Pin SvruDCo.. which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, In a pleasant syrup, In which the wholesome Callfornlan blue figs are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It Is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh andcleanse the system centiv and naturally, and to assist one In overcoming consti pation and the many Ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi ples and quaiity are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well Informed persons who know of their own personal knowledgs and from actual experience that It is s most excellent laxative It will cure all manner of llls.but represents, a laxative remeoy 01 Known quality ana excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or Injurious character.

To the credit of the druggists of the United States be It said nearly all of them value their reputation for professional crity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the Genuine Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., and In order to buy the genuine article and to get Its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. plainly printedon the front of every package, frlce, Kseaotlea.
