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

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. S. is the best rem

Even Hreat-grandinother Ilartwelt

Lata that night no one heard tha

Then there waa a clamor from tha

Tha following tale they all liatened
to with great Intereet:
"In the great Indian fight of twelve
yeara before, tha little raptured boy waa
taken to the Indian encampment, and
given to the care of a young aiiaw, the
favorite wife of the chief of the tribe.
"One day aha overheard the chlt-fe
talking about the white tuan'e child.
They aald he had brought misfortune
to tba Indiana, a tbay had loaf aereral

"Hhe asked them to take the rhlld and

would be restored to his "white trine.
The old Indian waa well rewarded
with a load of wheat and corn to carry

Then the long lost llsrry Yarrow waa
made to understand that thla wa hia

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.
There are two classes of purchasers! those who are Informed
to the quality of what they buy and the reasonsfor the excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, and
elsewhere when s dealer offers an
article; but, unfortunately, there are
l who allow themselves to be Imposed upon. 1 ney cannot expect
beneficial effects If they do not get the genuine remedy.
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,
