To writhe Upon Bed of Agony

Is what people troubled with rheumatic
symptoms can fairly expect, if they take
no efficient means to check the rapidly
growing malady which, it should never
be forgotten, has a tendency to attack
the heart and terminate lite. The testi-
mony, public and professional, is over
whelmingly convincing and concurrent
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is both
sovereign preventive and curative of
rheumatism 1t completely expurgates
from the blood the acrid principle which,
attacking the tissues surrounding the
joints and muscles, cause such exquisite
pain. The Bitters promotes the action
of the kidneys, bladder, stomach and
bowels, and remedies malaria, nervous
ness and debility. 1t also induces appe-
titeand sound repose, hastens GONZALES
cence after exhausting maladies, and
mitigates the infrmities of age. Take it
daily at regular intervals, and confident
ly expect the results.

An Amlcable Settlement Likely To BE
Reached

Omaha, Aug. 1l.-There now appears to
be fair prospect that the fire and police
board muddle will he amicably settled in
this city. as suggested by Gov. Holcomb
at the very inception of the trouble. The
question as decided yesterday settled none
of the issues involved. and passing upon
the petition for an INDUCTION. the only
thing intinated is that the proper rro-
cedure would be for the claimants under
the Churchiil-R Russell appointment TO
bring quo warranto proceedings against
the old board, The present incumhcnts
have always claimed that they were ready
and anxious TO join issues on their right
TO the office in a legal proceeding While
no agreement to this effect has vet been
arrived al one may possibly be given
within twenty-four hours.
Another story which is given credsnee
IN many quarters is TO the effect that the
A. T. A board will meet tomorrow. ap-
point police force and demand Tcsses-
sion of the office and books. and il this is
refused TO attempt to take posse ssion by
force. The present police force Is pre-
pared 10 resist any attempt Of the kind.
In case the newly appointed police force
cannot get possession Of the city Fail they
count upon securing recognition from the
police judge and setting UP force of their
own. II is more likely, hcwever. that the
proposal for a settlement viii be adopted.

worse, she says. he was not SO busy that
he could not do this work himself She
had to attend To household duties in addi-
