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 gelatlnous
and albuniinous 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 Sarsaparllla a posi-
live and permanent cure for rheuma
tism. It has mad 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 neutralizlnng
the tactic acid and purifying the

ANOTHER PLEASANT
EVENING
Enjoyed By our Young People
through the Hospitality of
the Kings Daughters"

other Of those delightful social
and literary entertainments, un-
der the auspices Of the "King's
Daughters occurred at the re-
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. E. II.
Goodrich. There were about
forty IN attendance, consisting
chiefly of the younger set, with
"a liberal commingling of grown
up" folks. After an hour Of
social chat, which formed a
delightful prelude to the enter
tainment, the program was be-
gun, with a lively chorus, "Old
Folks at Home" which all ioin-
ed in singing. Miss Daisy
Whitman and Mrs. J. L. Pute-
gnat then played a duet, piano
and violin, which was verv
much appreciated. A recita-
ton OF the stirring poem "The
Ride of Jennie M'Neal," by
Miss Florence Wreford next
elected generous applause. This
was followed by a song ''Hear
me say my little prayer" by
Miss Aggie Whitman, who has
a very sweet voice. Paul Wre-
ford then amused the company
with a comic recitation, after
which DR.. Thorn read in an
effective style a parody on
Maud Muller, entitled Gas it
Should Be-" A piano solo by
Mis- Maud Woodhouse, who is
an accomplished pianist, next
contributed much to the even
ing's enjoyment. a duet, VIC
lin with piano accompaniment,
by Emmett Goodrich and Miss
Kennedy followed and was very
much enjoyed. Emmett plays
the violin with much express
sion, and promises to become
a fine performer. A sweet poem
was then read by Miss Hous-
ton, being followed by pretty
piano duet by Misses Addie
Goodrich and Katie Whitman.
A touching little piece was well
read by Ludwig Dreyfus, after
which Miss Mielke's sweet voice
was heard in the song entitled
I'm old Madrid" A chorus,
"Where is Kathleen" followed.
It was very sweetly sung by
Misses Lily and Katie Will
man and Lily Mielke, Mrs.
Putegnat, Harry Loew and Joe
Kowalski, with piano accom-
paniment by Miss Maggie Ken
nedy and violin by Miss Daisy
Whitman and Emmett Goodrich
The distribution of questions
and answers on historical and
literary topics was the final
feature and it proved a most
interesting one. Afterwards,
the company INDUCED in lively
conversation until ten O'Clock
arrived, at which hour they dis
persed, showering many thanks
upon their kind host and hos

Mr.. Brooks tells us that after several
alterations, Mr.. Lincoln became so ex.

Among the reasons for the almost I'M
interrupted success Of Japan in prescott.
ing the present war with China Is the
spirit Of sacrifice and generosity exhib-
tied by her people. Voluntary contribu-
tfons amounting TO almost fifteen million
dollars have been received by the Gov
eminent. The Bank Of the Nobility,
which has given one million dollars out
right, has also placed fifteen million dol
lars. interest free. at the disposal OF the
authorities. The noblemen and wealthy
merchants have been most patriotic. and
. number Of them have contributed more
than one hundred thousand dollars each.
Victory under such conditions is compar-
atively easy and certain. Public spirit
In China with reference to the unfortu.
nate conflict presents . melancholy con-
trsst. Unhappily for the Chinese the
same spirit of indifference-to use no
stronger word-seems to psrvade q great
part Of the army and navy. Admiral
Ting himself had to report that seven OF
his ships remained concealed during the
eight on the Yalu; that several officers
had to be court.msrtialed for cowardice.
and that il was deemed essential to be-
head Captain Fong. who fed before the
beginning Of the battle.
