I'm the Winter

Rheumatism is most prevalent because exposure to
tbs cold and wet drives the blood from the surface
OF the body, and causes congestion of the liver and
ktdecys. These organs are thus unable to perform
their functions of eliminating the impurities and
Tactic acid, which are taken up ly the blood and
deposited in the joints and tissues, resulting in
the pains and aches we call rhegmatism. Hoods
sarsa2arilla has had great success in curing this
aiscase, both chronic and i~ntamma;ory. Acting
promptly on the blood. it neutralizes the Tactic
acid. expels all impurities. and restores the liver
and kidneys to natural action,

A Preventative for Divorce.

Edward j. Phelps. ex-minister to Eng
land and lecturer on law at Yale, has
turned his attention to the subject of di-
vorce in the United States, with an effort
to discover a practical means of lessening
the evil. How great that evil is may be
seen at q glance from the fact that during
the last twenty years more than 500, Coz
divorces have been granted, whereas, dur
ing the preceding twenty years only a
few more than 1926, 600 were granted. This
rapid increase is the main fact which has
directed the attention both of social and
legal reformers to the subject. Mr..
Phelps treats it from a practical, legal
point of view, and considers the means
whereby the law may be used as a preven-
tive.
A uniform divorce law in all the states
he regards MS impossible ever to obtain.
and his view of the Federal constitution 1t
that it would be illegal for the United
States to enact a law on this subject, his
being a matter which falls within state
jurisdiction. He addresses himself, there
fore, to state laws; and, after a discussion
of the main features of all these laws,
reaches the conclusion that the remedy
will be found in the prohibition of mar
riage by either divorced parties so long as
the other lives. He shows historically
that it is the liberty to marry again that
has caused such an increase in divorces,
and he concludes that it is the desire for
another marriage alliance that is the main
cause for most separations between hus-
bands and wives.-.Y The Forum,

Instructive Little Story.

. Once upon q time the directors of a
large public building devoted to learn
ing met to decide upon a proper en-
blem for Wisdom, whose statue they
desired should stand upon the topmost
spire of the structure. All manner of
created beings contended for the honor
Of typifying Wisdom and the strife
waxed vehement, insomuch that the
directors were sore perplexed. At last
the contention vas narrowed down to
two, the Philosopher and the Owl.
II am in the human form divine"
said the Philosopher. II embody the
knowledge of the ancients and the dis
~coveries of the mcderns. I can COM
municate my knowledge by spoken
words and by written signs. Moreover,
1 am a representative of the only race
of mammals that is endowed with wis
dom tooth. I claim to be the best
type of Wisdom"
81 d ..net profess TO. .embody all
knowledge" hooted the Owl, ssbut I
have that which is better. I possess
the art of %concealing my ignorance"
Whereupon the directors unanimous
ly chose the owl as the better emblem
OF Wisdom, and they placed it's statue
upon the pinnacle of their temple of
learning, where it may be seen to this
day.

A Correction.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In a COM
munication to your paper, published in August
1883, entitled Loves Captive" used the name
of W. E. H. Fentress as the officer in command
of the United States Steamer Rather, who
plotted to surrender that vessel into the hands
of the enemy. There is evidence to show that
/ was mistaken and that instead Of Acting
Master Fentress it was Acting Master Daniel
W. Cheney. Fentress was captured in the
church, as described, aud he wrote the letter re-
ferred to from Libby Prison, but he was not
guilty of the attempted treason imputed to
him.
| regret the mistake as much as any one
could, and take this method to correct it as far
as it is possible understand that Capt. Fem
tress is highly respected citizen of Michigan,
and Admiral Porter writes a very fiattering
letter concerning him. / shall be glad in any
way can to do full justice to my injured COM
rade.-W. II. MICHAEL, Washington, d. C.
