understand that the plan Of circulars, addressed on
the part Of the Managers Of the Monument to the
various councils has been resored TO. That course

Our plan proposes 10 commence with the high

its authority. IL the plan be adopted, the Grand
Council Of the United States will act Immediately
upon the State Grand Councils, and they in turn
will exert similar influence upon the subordinate
councils. The system will be thorough, and con-

untried. We call attention to the following paper,

restore the wasted diseased energies Of the whole

RHEUMATISM.

This eevere and painful disease has losg
bafiied the skill Of thousands Of our most eel.
ebrated physicians. Time and money have
been wasted in futile endeavors to obtain
some embrocation that would perform cure
but all have failod except HusT's LrsnESr,
and that has been successful in almost every
instance in which IL has been employed.
Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
sure to the weather, aud sleeping in damp
rooms. Those who are subject TO this com
plant should avoid remaining in damp places
too long. Reader, If you have the rheuma
tism, no matter hew slight, procure bottle
Of that remedy, so celebrated under the namo
Of HuST's LNInEsr, without delay, and apply
il thoroughly TO the parts affected, and pain
will vanish.

should not be neglected, as the curvature Of
