THE PAINS OF RHEUMATISM

According to the best authorities originate
in morbid condition of the blood. Tactic
acid, caused by the decomposition of the
geatinous and albuminous tissues, circulates
with the blood and attacks the tibrOus It's
sues, particularly in the joints, and thus
causes the local manifestations of the dis
ease. The back and shoulders are the parts
usually affected by rheumatism, and the
joints at the knees ankles hips and wrist
are also sometimes attacked. Thousands of
people have found in Hoods Sarsaparila Il
positive and permanent cure for rheumatism.
1t has had remarkable success in curing the
most severe cases. The secret of it's success
lies in the fact that it attacks at once the
cause of the disease by neutralizing the lac
tic acid and purifying the blood, as well as
strengthening every function of the body.

''D ~ INCOME TAX.
Washington. Dec. 4.-Secretary Car
Isle had conference with Commissioner
Miller of the internal revenue bureau
today, at which were discussed the regu-
lations recently prepared in the collection
of the income tax. The regulations are
very lengthy and cover every question
which is likely to arise in the admins
tration of the law. They are not likely,
however, to be promulgated for some
DAYS yet. as the secretary has granted
the request of some gentlemen to be
heard before the regulations are finally
approved. Secretary Carlisle is arrang..
ing the machinery for the collection OF
the income tax with evident confidence
that the necessary fund for its operation
will be forthcoming in the near future.
He has submitted an estimate of S0OO,OOO
for the employment of 3O3 additional dep
uty collectors, 10 extra revenue agents,
and other expenses in the execution Of
the statute, and is now acting with the
expectation that congress will speedily
provide the sum required. This estimate
is in addition to the $4,000 already appro-
Drated for stationery, printing. etc. Sec
rotary Carlisle made only incidental ref
erence to the income tax in his annual re-
port and it is probable that he has re-
served it as a subject for a special com
to the appropriation commit
tee.

Waning Power of oratory.

"While the love of oratory, pure and
simple, has not died out in the South, )"
said Representative Montgomery of Ken
lucky, 'the time has passed when the
ability to make a speech is regarded as
the only essential requisite in a Congress-
man. Hitherto the South has admired
rhetorical brilliancy in her public men,
but now it has come to realize that abil-
ity to do legislative work is far more i'm
portant. The East has taught US good
lesson in this respect. The Congressman
from the East are rarely good orators.
but they are men of business. Any man
with an idea that is worth anything will
be able to communicate it in some way to
his fellow-members unless he is dumb
although his words may be rough and
his language plain. Rhetoric is not the
only thing nowadays. This change is
very largely due to the condition of
affairs in the House, where all the work,
or the most important part OF 1t, is done
in committee. Oratory counts but little
on the floor. We listen to a good speech
as one listens to music. It is pleasant TO
our ears and is enjoyable while it lasts.
1t is very rarely, however, that speech
changes any votes. In the future you
will see men come from the South not
because they are silver-tongued, but be-
cause their constituents believe they will
be able to do good work as Congress-
men. w Washington Post.

goods. boots and shoes. hats, bonnets and

Clothing shows greater reduction than
