Internal Fire

A ri-.w years ago one of the most impoitant coal mines in N. S. \\~. caught firo. It elarltd slowly, but toon obtained such headway that it spread through tho greater portion of tho eulire mine. To flood it with water would oxtiuguisli tho fire, but well nigh ruin tbo mino; and t-till thq Hamoa continued to increase. At that juncture a young man etepped lorward and suggested that all tho entrances and vent holea of tho mino bo covered and secured/ thus shutting off tho supply of air. His advice w ais followed, aud the flames were finally subdued.

To compare tho condition of thia mine with many phases of tho human system! is most natural and appropriate. " Fire in tho blood" is not a mere expreEsiou, it is a most serious fact. How it originates, it may bo impossiblo to say ; but that it burns and rugcs v. ith an increasing fury, the one who ie its victim only too painfully knows. Tho blood it tho lifo. It is designed by naturo to purify, strengthen, aud tlistain tho system. It ia too often made the channel through which poison and death are tiansportod. Poisonous acids coming, through tne veins and arteries inflame and causo a fire just as real as the one whicli existed in the mine. They burn and irri tate, causing thobrain to become weak and tho nerves unstrung ; they carry pains to the musclos, and lesvo agoniesin tho joints; they bring destruction instead of strength; they dovastate the very portions ol tho _ody that most require help, and they hasten tho ap proach of death in its most horriblo form. Those things have been felt by innumerable people who havo been the victims of rheu* matic disorders, and the agonies they have endurod confirm this doscription. There ia but one way by which this fire in tho blood can be extinguished, and that is by shutting off the supply of these poisonous . acids. Tho lactic, lithic, aud uric acids como into the blood through the liver and kidneys, end they romaiu in solution in the blood,producing inflammatory rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, neuralgia, gout, and all rheumatic fevers and affections. When they are deposited as gritty crystals in and near the joints, they cause articular rheum atism ; when in the muscles, muscular rheumatism and lumbago; when in the tissues covering the nervee, sciatica; when in the face, head, and nerves generally, neuralgia. In every caso they are painful; in most instances, dangerous. In flammatory 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 tho Mood must be extinguished—the supply must be shut off. This can only be done by guaiding the portals of the blood—the kidneys and liver j and no means has ever been found for accom plishing this which can equal Warner's safe rheumatic cure, combined with Warner's safe cure. They aot directly upo_ the seat of the disorder, and extinguish the fire by controlling the supply and removing the cause.

The well-known standing of H. H. Warner & Co., jf Rochester, London, Mel bourne, Toronto, Frankfort, and Bombay, tho remarkable success which Warner's safe cure has achieved, belug endorsed by medi cal mon, the clergy, barristers, and leading men in all walks of lifo, nnd tho fidelity with which they havo carried out all their promises to tho public, should be ft suliiuetit warrant that tho above state ments aro true. They, however, guaran tee lo euro ninety-five per cent of all rheumatic troubles, especially acute, it directions nto followed, knowing full well that tho demonstrated power of their rsmedios justifies them in so doing. Nothing oan be fairer than this, and those who suffer in tho future from rheumatism with Buch an offer beforo them, do so on their own re sponsibility, and can blame no one if living pain and untimely death are the results.

In the row County of Otamatea the Coun ties Act is to bo brought into operation w.thi.ul. delay, and tho necessary arrange ment;, are being uiFtde to tbat end.
