A GREAT CURE OF RHEUMA-

In few weeks, by DR.. Jones. The testimony OF
one of the first ladies OF Knoxville:
"DR. JONES-Dear Sir: am happy to report that
in eight days after using your remed eS my wife
was able to walk across the parlor and bed room,
and comparatively free from pain though she had
not been out of bed, or the rolling char for seven
montnS, and an invalid SEVEN YEARS. And now,
by continuing your treatment, is well and attend
ing to her household duties-has visited the coun-
try, and attends church, and goes about and is so
well no one could tell she ever LA been an invalid
seven years, or any length of time, and this is
the more remarkable as her pain and sufferingS
were INTENSE, and she could NOT rest day nor
night before she commenced your eatment, and
she was given up as hopeless and incurable case.
u She h I'd tried several diff rent medical sorts
and mlny doctors, when you were announced at
the Hattie House, which resulted, under the
blessing of God, in, we believe, permanent cure
We feel like recommending all suff ring humanity
to go to d.. Jones.
Neither myself nor my wife can say enough in
favor OF your treatment, VIII CHI is so mild and
pleasant AMI yet So exceedingly certain and Ell

FOR PEw-HoLpERs,
Something of Interest TO People who
Attend Church Here.


The following suggestions, from the
rector's Parish Notes in the interesting November
number Of the Parish Guide Of the above named
church, breathe so true spirit Of Christian cour-
tesy, and are so applicable TO pew-holders in all
the leading churches Of this city Of strangers, that
we are glad to reproduce them in this column:
The renting of n pew conveys right to occupy,
not right to leave unoccupied nor to disturb others
by very late coming. And fault is sometimes
found because persons coming too late find their
seats occupied, or coming u little late find that
some stranger, without knowledge OF the uShefs,
has taken possession of seat that seemed unOc-
cupied. Strangers not understanding the arrange.
ments and the necessity for them, sometimes COM
plain because they nre not Immediately seated IN
good places. The congregation owe n deeper debt
10 the ushers than they are aware Of You Gun
help them, and help TO your own convenience,
the good order of the church and its good name
for hospitality II you,
Easter the church will be very full often crowded.
SecOnd-Take pains to come early; you viii
gain what otherwise you lose--the nncss Of the
worship; you will save the ushers the trouble OF
the worship of Others.
Third-As you ppss in, if you know you are to
nave one or two disposGble places In your pew,
say so to the ushers. Or better, have the courage
Of hospitality, 10 take in with you some stranger
whom you see waiting. The personal kindness on
your part will be more acceptable than the official
kindness of the ushers.
Fourth-Be prompt and watchful to invite into
your pews, If there be room, persons occupying
chairs In the passage. way.
And last; If by mistake or In any way, you come
TO church late and find your seat In part occupied,
be careful TO let no token of annoyance make the
stranger feel uncomfortable. A moments patience
Will show you, as one more at home In the church,
where you can find room in neighbOrs' seats, ind
far better for you, than turning your back upon
God and His worship In displeasure.

FIGHTING GRANT,

An interviewer asked General Grant n
few days ago in New York why II was that the
New York Tribune lent itself to such mean
method Of warfare against him. He said: "I re-

eyer: During the past six weeks certain
friends Of the Tribune have been to me
repeatedly TO ask my good offices TO inercede for
them with President Arthur These gentle
men said that the Tribune people desired TO
place themselves in harmony with the Prosi-
dent, as they had been with Mr.. Garfield. In
case this could be done they are ready TO desert
the Half-Breed flag and to give the adminis-
tration their most cordial aud hearty support
II was u complete surrcndcr-uneonditional in
deed. All that they wanted was to be recognized
at Washington-that and n share of the loaves and
fishes, / suppose. The details of this matter, If
published, would be anything but agreeable to the
paper that has lent its columns for Mr.. Blaincs
assault upon the President and myself, and If the
attack Is repeated they are likely to be given TO the
public"
"At this point" continued the interviewer, "I
asked the ex-President whether he had taken any
steps to bring about reconciliation. No, SIR he
replied, with an emphasis that fairly startled me.
Do you think could do anything for newspaper
that coolly proposed my assassination"
The following from the New York tribune OF
January Q, 1915, Is the article to which General
Grant refers:
"Now that Kellogg proposes to decide who shall

do this in the right way they should use the short

scIeutiae wonders.

That America is fast being recognized
rs holding within her grasp grander and more
beautiful things than any other land under the
sun Is rapidly being conceded. Instead OF the
great tide Of travel setting toward the European
shores, in the past, there was. during the past
season, a notable increase of tourists from the
classic shores Of the Old World. Switzerland is
not losing her attractions, but America
is unfolding hers, and men Of science
come to examine them, both above and
under the ground. The Alps and the Rhine
and the Pyrcnnes are grand, and Agassiz stood ell
tranced he took In their beauty and their wealth
with his broad vision; but the Rockies, Niagara
the Mississippi, the Mammoth Cave, the Yosemite,
and the Luray Caverns are grander, There n
nothing in the world to match their wild aud
rugged beauties, and we may henceforth expect
two streams across the Atlantic but those who
come will be better paid than those who go.

The Government counsel had satisfied them

for this.
About that time Cook wrote a letter 10 the fore

found against Brady, without witnesses US " the
