Rheumatism Can be Cured

Notwithstanding there many thousands suffer
ing from this painful and dangerous disease, who
have expended fortunes in doctoring in the hope
that they might be cured. But Rheumatism, like
Scrofula and Salt Rheum, Is disease Of the blood,
caused by excess of uric Mhfc acid in the blood.
1t has bafled the skill of our best physicians all
over the land, and there are to-day more men,
and children suffering from this terrible dis
than before, and the opinion seems almost
universal that 1t is ncurable but this is mistaken
idea for It can be cured. But not in day or week,
ough treatment with remedy that will cleanse the
blood of the aerid poison and that will build up the
debilitated system, enrich the blood, increase the
circulation and restore the liver and kidneys to
healthy action can effect permanent cure.
A remedy compounded from roots, herbs, barks
and fruits, whose curative properties particularly
adapted to all diseases of the blood, and when used
as directed will cure any case of Rheumatism,
either chronic, acute inamnatory scatc, is IIib-
bard's Rheumatic Syrup. = This remedy stands far
ahead of all others for the cure of the diseases
above mentioned, and the propretors have that con-
fdence in its curative powers that they will give
500 for any case of rheumatism, Salt Rheum,
Scrofula or Erysipelas 1t will not Help or exye.
Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup is put up in large
bottles, and is sold by druggists generally at $Ioo
to any address on receipt of price.
If you are sufferer from any of the above dis
eases, any disease of the blood or skin, do not
delay but go at and get half dozen bottles
OF Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup and you will bless
the day you heard Of it.
Send for our pamphlet and read Of those who
have been cured by its use. Address

Couldn't possibly; it's promised.
The first speaker was n customer in a

bacconist The subject of request and
refusal was II clever reproduction of
well-known painting by an artist of
fame in the show-window. The picture
was deliberately mounted and framed,
and would have been an ornament on
any mans walls had it not been for the
brief legend inscribed in dainty but too
conspicuous lettering in Il corner of the
picture, referring in terms which might
be regarded as hyperbolical to tho
merits OF certain newly-introduced
brand of cigarettes. In the same show
window was Il stained-glass screen in Il
handsome brass frame, hand-painted.
and beautiful ut sufficient distance. A
close view revealed reference to an
other brand of cigarettes, which the
manufacturer candidly admitted were
the best in the world,
The fact is" the cigar-dealer said
confidentially, ''thcse pictures don't be-
long to me. They arc only loaned, and
after awhile an agent will come around
and collect them, and they will be hung
up in some window uptown or perhaps
out of town. --s-ss-s-
why" continued he, rs the CUSTOM
er showed an interest in his story, ''the
cost of enough of those handsomely
framed pictures 10 fill all the windows
of all the cigar stores in the country
would eat up years profits on all the
sales of cigarettes or tobacco. 1t
wouldn't be profitable. The scheme is
to put out few hundreds of these OK
pensive pictures about town and so at
tract attention to the brand of tobacco
being introduced. Then in few weeks
the pictures and screens and other adj
vertising trinkets are taken perhaps to
Brooklyn or Philadelphia or Chicago,
and on all over the country, and the
fame of the cigarette is spread through
out the land. IN y, san.

Character i'm Curl Papers.

Curl papers show character. Subtle
distinctions of personality, based on the
curl papers of n young woman, may be
as positive as they are intricate and in
teresting. Your creature of principle
who cschcws curl papers us deceptive in
results must of course be left out of this
category And the fortunate feminine
whose hair kinks and curls better on
rainy day, or in sea breeze, or on
melting summer afternoon than Mt any
other time, cannot be counted either.
But among the devotces of the curl pa
per, variations of character may be safe
ly and successfully catalogucd by study
of the times and the manner of its use.
OF course II society belle never uses pa
per for her friset 1t is done up on a
pretty patented arrangement of kid or
something else, and this genus of curl
paper is never seen outside of its wear
er's own private apartment. But in
the ordinary homo paper is usually used
to curl the front hair. And it may be
set down rs an infallible rule that the
young person who appears at the break
fast table with her forehead adorned by
frizzes, in prospect rather than in reality,
is lacking in sense of the fitness OF
things; she who wears her frizz papers
until lunch time is both lazy and selfish,
while she who wears them all day and
never takes them down until sunset
needs no other sign to show her ignor-
ance and her vanity. A crusade against
the curl paper would mean, first of all,
the preaching of the doctrine of an all
day comeliness instead of that spas
modic chrysalis sort which Is associated
with Its usc.--Boston Record.
