kind invitation TO visit you in your new quarters

Mr. rheumatism, pounced ON me so suddenly.
He arrived last Friday, and, without stopping to
send up his card, rushed In and graspcd me by
the hand with such grip that in a few hours
my hand and wrist were so badly swollen and
painful that felt as though one Of Mr.. Haich's
coal teams had run over me. Mr.. Rheumatism
has been constant visitor Of mine for several
years he always swells and put on great many
airs, making b!niself at home, devouring my sub
stance and leaving nv poor In flesh and pocket,
Last winter he came and stayed two montns !

him three square meals day Of ST. JACOBS OIL

William Winter.


"My great ambition once was" he re,
marked, one evening, "to edit a magazine
Since then the opportunity has been Of
fered to me many times-and | did not
take it, and would not" That same
night he spoke of his poem-the first
that ever was printed--and described his
trepidation when going, in the evening,
70 drop the precious manuscript into the
editors box. This was at weekly news
paper office in Portland, Maine, when he
was boy. Publication day arrived and
the paper came out--but not word of
the poem. 'But had another copy" he
said "and | Immediately sent it to the
rival weekly, and the next week it was
published" And then he described his
exultation and inexpressible joy and
pride, when-having bought copy OF
the paper, still damp from the press, and
walked with it into by.street of the
town-he saw, for the first time, a poem
of his own actually in print II have
never since had such thrill of delight,
he said, "over any of my publications.

rare, but mental enfeeblement, attended
with paralysis, is becoming more and
more common, as result of the over
work and worry of the struggle for exist
ence at the present day.
