Laetic acid, caused by the dt composition of the gelatinous and albumiuous tissues, circulates with the blood and attacks the fibrous tissues, particularly in the joints, and thus causes the local manifestations of the disease. The back and shoulders are the parts usually affected by rheuma- tism, ard the joints at the knees, ankles, hips and wrists are also sometimes at tackled Thousands of people have found in Hoods sarsaparilla positive ard per mauent cure for rheumatism. It has had remarkable success in curing the most se- were cases. The secret of it's success lies in the fact that 1t attacks at once the cause of the disease by neutraliziDg the tactic acid and purifying the blood, az well as strengthening every function o1 the body.

 ON THE MYSTERIES OF NATURE.
 The next In the series of the Newtown entertainment course will be the lecture and pictorial exhibition of William Ham. ilton Gibson on the "Mysteries of Ma ture," to be given in Town hall on We'd nesday eveLing, January 9. Mir Gibson is an artist as we'll as naturalist and lecturer, and his famous lecture will be illustrated by over 200 colored charts and 80 models. We bespeak for Mir Gibson an overflowing audience in Newtown, mot only that he is native of Newtown, but that his fame as an artist and naturalist is as wide as the continent, and the sub ject on which he Is to speak in Newtown has won for him the applause and highest concentrations of thousands of auditors in the leading cities of our country. In Bridgeport, where they paid $l admis- sion to hear him and see his artistic reve- lations of nature, last winter, they say that Newtown has one of the greatest treats In store for the comu z winter, in hearing Mir Gibson, they have ever had before.
 Rev Dr Abbott said at the close of his lecture here: "If you are going to have Gibson here this winter, you will have the most interesting, instructive and best entertainment that this country affords. Be sure and see him."

 The intense interest taken in the al most miraculous cures made by Dr Ken. nedy's Favorite Remedy, at Athens, N r., and other places, resulted Tn the Albany, N. Y., Journal sending special representative to Athens to investigate the cases, and it was found that many of the cures made by this medicine were simply wonderful.
 In the case of MT Lewis Glow, who had chronic kidney disease, Mrs Casper Brooks suffering from female troubles and kidney disease, and Mrs William Tiffany who suffered from general pros tration, all of these cases were abandon ed by their attending physicians. Dr Kennedy's FavUrlte Remedy was then used by them and in every case an abso. lute cure was effected.
