RHEU N ATISM
Have You Got it?...lf You
Have, Nov Is the Time
TO Be Cured.

| There nre very few people Of middle or
advanced age that have not had more or
less experience with rheumatic pains. and
| those VINO have not experienced those
pains can be thankful that they have been
spared from the suffering Of one of .he
greatest torments Of which flesh Is heir to.
What d the cause Of rheumatism Is a
question frequently asked. A volume
could be written on rheumatism and its
causes. This term is applied to all in
hammatory affections Of the fbrous mus
cuiar and serous tissues. which are not
clearly referable to injury. The cause
may be said to be exposure to cold and
wet. sudden chills, residence In cold, damp
and variable climates Is q common cause
Lactic acid in the blood is supposed to be
one OF the chief causes. A great deal has
peen written on this subject-the cause
or rheumatism. A Joint or muscular tls-
sue that has been sprained Is more liable
| 70 De the locality Of an attack. The
shoulders, wrists. knees, ankles and fin
| gers are the joints generally attacked by
| this complaint: also the muscles, and Mt
times Is accompanied by q low grade of
fever, but let the complaint be seated
where 1t Will. the patient Is a great suf-
rerer, and the question arises where and
how to get cured of this terrible COM
plant. DR.. F. b. Smith and stafr have
made the treatment of rheumatism one
OF their spec!alties for years and have
met with wonderful success. Their treat
ment of this disease by magnetism has
brought permanent cure to hundreds of
sufferers who bless the day they went TO
DR.. Smith and stan for treatment. II
you or any Of your friends are suffering
from this complaint do not wait until the
winter rains and winds have caused your
pains to be SO severe that you cannot leave
your home, but go at once, see those doc
tors, place yourself under their care and
be cured. Consultation free from 9 to 6
daily except Sundays. Tuesdays and Fri
days from a. m. to 9p. m.

Great Sea Depths. .

1t is a remarkable fact that the
deepest parts of the sea are in all cases
very near the land. The deepest
sounding known, 1865 fathoms, OF
1880 feet, was obtained ITO miles
from the Kurile islands; the next deep
est, 1861 fathoms, was found seventy
miles north of Porto. Rico. With a
few exceptions like these the depih of
the oceans, so far as now known, does
not reach 1900 fathoms, Or four sea
miles. The North Pacific has mean
depth of $500 fathoms, the South Pa
cifc. of s2,400, the Indian ocean of
1900, and the Atlantic, by far the
best investigated ocean, has mean
depth of 1900 fathoms.

J " here Washington Took the Oath.
At the foot Of Wards heroic statue
Of Washington, on the high steps Of the
the subreasury building is broad
piece Of stone carefully covered with
a wire grating. It. is so placed that
should the image Of the immortal faith
er Of his country come to life and step
down from his lofty pedestal he would
stand on the same spot where occurred
the browning triumph of his career.
Through the protecting grating can be
read the following dim inscription:
"Standing on this stone in the balcony
Of Federal Hall, April 80, 1879, George
Washington took the oath as first presi-
dent Of the United States of America"
When old Federal Hall was demolish-
ed the sacred stone was carefully pre-
served and it now occupies as nearly
as possible the same position as before.

on the high base of the statue, where it
is fittingly placed as one of the relics

WITH MY LIKKER.'
Misunderstanding mountaineers the
manager had ever seen; determined
and desperate men, who could put a
bullet in a man half mile away. All
were armed with their long rifles, and
two had their weapons at their
shoulders, while the trembling ex-
press messenger and the engineer
stood with their hands above their
heads.
''What's wrong?" cried a nabob,
who had followed the manager out.
"Everything's wrong. We're held
up; that's what's wrong. Go back
and tell the rest to conceal their val
uables. know what they are after.
There's nearly half a million of gold
on board. I'll go forward and.pariey
with them as long as possible, so as
to give you time. I imagine that if
they break open the safe they'll be in
a big hurry to get away and will
leave the passengers alone. Still, I
don't know; SO warn every body"
There is no question but the man
ager was a brave man. He went
briskly forward, as if nothing partic-
ular was wrong, and it was all a lit
tie mistake that could be explained
away in few words. AS he walked
the length Of the train he made up

SO doing he could prevent bloodshed

Making Voices.

A French savant, one DR.. Sandras,
will go down to posterity as dis
coverer of a method of modifying and
improving the quality of the human
voice. He has made number of ex-
periments, and finds that the voice may
be changed by the inha1 htion of various
substances: Some of these. such as
benzine, caffeine, cloroform and curacao,
augment the sorority of the high
notes and make. the voice higher in
range, while others, such as Norwe-
gian tar, make the base notes more
powerful. Thus, as one of the French
papers remarks, we have a simple and
effective method for converting med
iocre baritone into that rare bird, a
high tenor. All he has to do is to in
hale curacao.
