Announce the presence of Rheuma-
tism due to Tactic acid in the blood.
1t cannot be cured by liniments or

Sarsaparilla purifies the blood, re-
moves the cause of rheumatism and
permanently cures this disease. This
is the testimony of thousands of peo-

rheumatism but who have actually
been cured by taking Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Its great power to act upon the

the secret of the wonderful cures by

That Glen Ulltn Wool.

The members of the Glen Ullin
wool growers association have
gained an unusual experience with
their last seasons clip. In the first
place they declined the price offered
by eastern buyers. and after repeated
efforts to sell the wool. all of which
fell through, P. b. Wickham was
sent to Chicago to effect sale.
1t was finally consigned to WOOL
securing concern and the wool was
secured, aud the prospects for speedy
returns looked bright. Then Mr..
Wickkam was one day advised of the
death of the owner of the securing
works which event, Of course, delayed
negotiations for the sale of the
secured wool, and in the mean time
the Glen Ullin wool growers were pa
tiently awaiting returns which were
needed to pay debts and purchase
winter supplies. The grand finale
came some weeks ago in the shape of
Il telegram saying the warehouse in
which the wool was stored at Chicago
had been totally destroyed by fire to-
gether with the contents. Fortunate
ly ample insurance was provided for,
and Mr.. Wickham says the members
of the association will net at the rate
of six cents pound for the un-
secured wool, and the money is
expected from the insurance company
this week. Mr.. Wickham says one
valuable piece of information has
been cleaned by the association and
that is, each member knows what his
wool secured; matter which has
been kept dark to them and until now
they had no means of finding out. and
they propose to profit by the expert

Whatever may be said about the
publications of Rev. Irl R. Hicks by
those who do not fully understand
the facts, there is no denying the
truth that his paper and Almanac
have come to stay. His splendid
journal, Word AND WORKS, is now
entering its tenth year, largely in.
creased in circulation and in every
way improved, until it deserves the
national reputation it has attained.
His 1897 Almanac is now ready and
is by far the finest and most beauti-
full he has yet issued. It contains
108 pages, including cover artistically
painted in colors, and is filed from
back to back with just what is
wanted in every shop, Office and
home in America. One feature Of
the Almanac for 1897 is series of IL
original, beautifully engraved star
maps, with explanatory chapters,
which could not be bought for less
than five dollars in any work on
astronomy. As Mr.. Hicks has so
correctly and faithfully warned the
public of coming droughts, floods,
cold waves, billiards., tornadoes and
cyclones, in the years passed, aside
from the other varied and splendid
features of his paper and Almanac,
these considerations alone should
prompt every family to subscribe at
once for 1897. The Almanac is only
25 cts. copy. WORD AND WORK. Is
one dollar year, and a copy of the
fine Almanac goes as a premium
with every yearly subscription.
