It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin arc also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kid neys to do double work; they become weak and sluggish and fail to elimi nate this poison, which keeps accumu lating and circulating through the sys tem, eventually Editing in tlic joints and imifdcs, earning stiffness, sore ness and pain, called rheumatism.
