THE PAINS OF RHEUMATISM

According to the best authorities,
originate in a morbid condition of
the blood. Tactic acid, caused by
the decomposition of the gelatinous
and alhuminous 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 rheumatism, and
the joints at the knees, ankles, hips
and wrists are also sometimes at
tackled. Thousands of people have
found in Hoods Sarsaparilla a posi-
tive and permanent cure for rheuma
tism. 1t has had remarkable sue
cess in curing the most severe cases.
The secret of its success lies in the
fact that it attacks at once the
cause of the disease by neutralizing
the Tactic acid and purifying the
hlood,as we'll as strengthening every
function of the body.

idence in Hidalgo county. He
was one Of Oldest settlers OF
this county, having moved here
in the fifties from Alabama.
He was beloved by the many
friends he had made among the
pioneers of the Rio Grande
border, and highly honored by
the community in which he liv-
ed. He protested the Lord
Jesus Christ as his saviour in
1875 and led a consistent Chris
tan life since. A few evenings
before he died he expressed a
regret that his feeble health
had prevented his attending a
Holiness meeting going on N
the community, whereupon the
family requested the minister
to come to his home and hold
prayer, He enjoyed the meet
ing and asked the minister to
hold prayers there as often as
possible. His suffering was so
intense that he could not sit or
lie down, but would stand
swinging his weight by his
hands from the top of the door,
grooming and often crying out
with eXcrrlciating pain. The
evening before he died he sent
for the same minister to come
and hold prayer at his res
idence. He gathered all his
family together and told them
he did not know he would live
to see another day and he want
ed services there that night.
After the minister read from
the 9th. chapter of st. Matthew
and prayed God to make all
resigned to His will, the suffer
er arose and said he wanted to
testify once more to the keep
ing and saving power Of God.
He gave a bright testimony and
warned his femily and COM
munity to live the life of the
righteous that they might die
the death of the righteous, after
which he said the pain was
leaving his body and felt like
he might sleep, which he had
not done, for several days and
nights. His wife fixed the bed
and he was sleeping soundly in
a few minutes. The rest sat up
thinking he would soon arouse
with the same pains. He slept
soundly until daylight, when
his wife went to see if he was
awake and found the breath
had just left his body, as he
was still warm. He had gone
to rest in the arms of Jesus, to
awake to an immortal life OF
glory forever, where he will
have no more pain or suffering
He leaves a wife and five chill
dren and many friends to mourn
his absence.

An acquaintance met Horace one

and the old white hat went its

his subscriber again, and said: IL

must be some mistake" said
Horace, "tor just came from the
Office, and the presses were run

work, and the business was going
on the same as yesterday and the
