to trial today has been continued to

ford: Attorney George F. Haley of Bidde-
ford counsel OF L. W. Thompson, the

ness for the defense could not be found.
Haley claims that the evidence OF this

Haley claims to have up his sleeve, ne

ANY man or woman who can o,

popular physician, who declared thi.
while talking to some friends at the

''What it is that causes these pain!
has been greater mystery to physi
clans and scientists than almost an,
other question. Some have declared
that they are the results of a sever,
cold. others that imprudent expos
ure has caused them, and still other:
that they arise from blood poisoning
''In order to obtain, if possible,
correct theory of rheumatism and al
the aches and pains which accom-.
pany it, certain authorities in Wash

the views of the physicians of Amer.

belief as to leave but little doub,
that it is a correct one. This belief
briefly stated, is that uric acid in the
blood causes rheumatism. and tina,
it is only by removing this poisonous
acid that rheumatism or neuralgia
troubles, in all their terrible forms
can be cured. This being true. the

how can it best be removed

"This is reason: it is science: it is

may be, has perfect kidneys. The
conclusion of the truth is inevitable.
Perfect kidneys mean freedom from
