Last Bummer I had a sever* attack of Inflamma
tory Rheumatism In the knees, from whloh I yraa
unable to leave my room for several months. I
was treated by two doctors and also tried differ
ent kinds of liniments and medicines whloh
seemed to relieve me from pain for awhile, bnt at
the same time 1 was not any Dearer getting well.
ALMOST AS COMMON IN SUMMER AS IN WINTER.
While the damp, cold, changing weather of
Winter intensifies the pains and other disagreeable
symptoms of Rheumatism, it is by no means a
winter disease exclusively. Through the long
months of Summer its wandering pains and twitch
ing nerves are felt by those in whose blood the uric
acid, which produces the disease, has accumulated.
Rheumatism is a disease that involves the en
tire system. ltd primary cause results from the
failure of the eliminative organs, the Liver, Kid
neys and Bowels, to carry out of the system the
urea, or natural refuse matter. This coming in
contact with the different acids,of the body forms
uric add which is taken up and absorbed by the
blood. This add causes fermentation of the blood,
making it sour and unfit for properly nourishing
the body, and as this vital stream goes to every
nook and comer of the body, the poison is distrib
uted to all parts. The nervous system weakens
from lack of rich, pure blood, the skin becomes fe
verish and swollen, the Stomach and digestion are on* day while leading a paper I saw an adver-

and dangerous trouble. If the uric acid is allowed
to remain in the blood, and the disease becomes chronic, chalky deposits form at the joints,
and they are rendered immovable and stiff, and the patient left a helpless cripple for life.
Every diy the poison remains in the system the disease gets a firmer hold. The best time
to get rid of Rheumatism is in warm weather-; because then the blood takes on new life and
the skin is more active and can better assist in the elimination of the poisons. With the
proper remedy to force the acid out of the blood, and at the same time build up and
strengten the Liver. Kidneys, Bowels and other organs of the. body, Rheumatism can be per
manently cured. External applications relieve the pain and temporarily reduce the inflam
mation, add for this reason are desirable, but thev cannot have any effect on the disease.
The blood' is poisoned and the blood must be treated before a cure can be effected.
S. S. S., a remedy made from roots, herbs and barks, is the best treatment for Rheuma
tism. It goes into tM blood and attacks the disease at its head, and by neutralizing the acid
and driving it out, and building up the sour blood so it can supply nourishment ana strength
to every part of thejbody, it cures Rheumatism permanently. S. S. S. is the only safe cure
for the disease; being purely vegetable,' it will not injure the system in the least, as do
those medicines which contain Potash or some other mineral ingredient. S. S. S. tones up
every part of the body by its fine tonic properties.
While cleansing the blood of all poisons it builds up the
appetite and digestion, soothes the excited nerves, re
duces all inflammation, relieves pain and completely
cures Rheumatism in every form—Muscujar, Inflamma
tory, Articular or Sciatic. If you are worried with the
nagging pains of Rheumatism, do not wait for it to be
come chronic, but begin the use of S. S. S. and purge
the blood of every particle of the poison. Write for our book on Rheumatism, and ask our
physicians for any advice you wish. We make no charge for either.

EVERGLADE DRAINAGE.
Problem Bring* Ip Interesting Story
of lake Iamonl*'* Traveling
Water*.
Oovornor Broward, ot Florida, la
poahlog a project to drain the lm-
■ medae swamp, the Everglade*. In
tbla he haa the nnlted opposition
-of the Florida preaa, they claiming
that the plan la not practicable.
The problem ha* brought forth much
Intereating hlatory. Among the con-
trlbuUona la that of a aclentiat who
make* the following report of the
traveling watera ot Lake Iamonia,
the famout hunting and flailing
ground to Which many Thomaaville
people go for aport:
"In Illustration of the existence
and effect of subterranean water
sources, .let us take the case of Lake
Iamonia, In West Florida, not tar
from Tallahassee. It had long been
eoutiered that.lt the marshes which
constitute the principal part of this
lake could be drained, some of the
finest rice and sugar iands In the
country could be secured for culti
vation. This lake Is on comparative
ly high ground, and there was no
apparent obstacle to prevent the
complete reclamation of the coveted
lands.
“Some years ago the waters ot
this lake receded, and naturally gave
to agriculture a wonderful fertile
land that had been for centuries a
waste of marshes, and the habitat
of fish and alligators..
"The state was not slow to profit
by the fortunate turn of tide. A
reasonable length of time Was al
lowed to pass In order to see It the
recession of the water was not a
mere local-disturbance—-an epheme
ral metamorphosis In the landscape
nd then the reclaimed land was
staked out and sold to prospective
millionaires In due and -legal form.
'This all happened within recant
years, yet today Lake {aahnlq- Is at
It was In the days of the settlement
ot tho state of Florida, and has re
verted to Its original condition,
“The miracle of the emptying of
the lake Is yet unsolved; neither has
the condition which determined the
return of the water received ade
quate explanation; yet the fact re
mains that scarcely had the plans
for the Improvement of this re
claimed land been completed than
the waters of this lake returned to
their former level, and the fishes
and alligators Inhabit the erstwhile
rice and enne fields.
"The same phenomenon' Is likely
to appear In the event of any at
tempt to drain the Everglades.”
