SCIATIc RHEUMATISM AND ITS
cuRE.

From the Gazette, Burlington, Iowa.
The story Of Mr.. Tabor's nearly fatal
attack of sciatic rheumatism is familiar
to his large circle of acquaintances, but
Tor the benefit of others n those sim
llarly afflicted The Gazette has investi-
gated the matter for publication. MI.
TABOR is Secretary and Treasurer for
the Commercial Printing Company,
With offices in the Hedge Block, and re-
sides at All. Bassat Street. Burlington,
iowa. A Gazette man sought an inter-
view with Mr.. Tabor at his place Of
business to-day, n although he was
busily engaged with imperative duties.
ne talked freely and feelingly on the
subject of his recent severe sickness and
subsequent wonderful cure.
Yes" said Mr.. Tabor, II can safely
say that am a well man, that is, my
old trouble with rheumatism has en-
tirely disappeared, but l am still taking
Pink Pills M will keep on taking them
as long as l continue to grow stronger
and healthier, as I have been every day
since l began to use them. You will not
wonder at my profound faith in the
merits of Pink Pills after you have
heard what I have to tell you. About
one year ago 1 was stricken suddenly
with Sciatic rheumatism and was CON
fined to my bed. 1t grew worse .and
rapidly assumed the form of infamma-
tory rheumatism. I suffered constant
n acute pains and all the tortures
which that horrible disease is capable Of
INJECTING. AT length under the constant
care OF a local physician I was enabled
to return to my work, but only at inter-
walls. Severe attacks would appear reg
ularly in my back and descend into my
leg ana foot, and threatened to make me
a permanent cripple. I tried various
remedies for rheumatism, but without
any beneficial results. I grew pale. weak
and haggard, and my family grew
alarmed at my condition.
About eight weeks ago my mother
induced me to try DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and you know the
result. Before | had used one box I felt
greatly relieved and much stronger. [
continued their use and improved rapid
~. l have now taken eight boxes and
feel like a new man and completely
cured.
In reply to inquiries MI. Henry, the
druggist. stated that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills were having a large sale, that it
was particularly gratifying to him to
know that the customers themselves
were highly pleased with the benefits
they had derived from their use: that
many of them stated that the pills were
the only medium that had done them
any good; thai they not only gave
them quick relief but permanent bene.
fit. That the pills do sell and that the
pills do cure is a certainty.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in a
condensed form, all the elements nee.
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves,
Pink Pills are sold in boxes only at so
cents a box or six boxes for $3.50, and
nay be had of all druggists, or direct by
mail from DR.. Williams Medicine Co.

ly, he walked around the block. When
he returned he pulled and tugged and
sweat his collar in vain and finally
got SO mad that he consigned old Dol
by and his daughter to a climate
where ice becomes water in ten min
utes. The man who wanted to borrow
$40 of Dolby opened the door, and hes
itatcd. and skated around to get his
nerve up. When he returned the door
would not open, though he d%isintegrat-
ed his s%uspenders in pulling. The man
who read pull" as he went up the
street found "Push" staring him in the
eyes as he returned, and he lodged
around a corner to see If he was too
drunk to walk a line. Canvassers, and
solicitors and tramps got knocked out
by that door until they lodged across
the street in passing, and old Dolby
chuckled and cacklcd and laughed till
his weight increased twenty pounds.
But one day he looked out to see q
grim and determined man standing be-
fore the place. 1t was a man who had
tried Il hundred times to get past that
docrt to sell Dolby q hat-rack. lie had
always found PUSH and pulp so
badly mixed up that he couldn't work
the door. Now he had desperation In
his eyes and a screwdriver in his hand.
He pulled and lie pushed, and he final
ly struck it. Then he held the door
open with his knee. ahscrewed the
hinges. and taking the outfit ON HIS
shoulders, he walked off UP the street
and on and on until lost sight Of In the

When the door was hung in place
there was a sign out of Pull" The
meaning was so obvious that a child
could catch on. The idea was to take
hold of the handle and pull the door
open. There was a popularity about
the hinges of that door, and the sign
was fastened on so that it could be de-
tached in five seconds, but with that
the public had nothing to do. The car.

along came an eminent citizen who
had business with Dolby. He took a

him that all storm doors should be
pulled instead of pushed. He had been
hasty about the matter, and he felt
chagrined that so small a thing should
have put him out. He, therefore, de-

a Great Money Collector hut an Editorial
Failure.
Az the financial manager Of po-
iitical canvass Mr.. Mark Hanna Is an
imposing success. but as managing
editor he has not as yet exhibited the
smallest ability. The gold-standard
press Of the east Is being conducted
with stupidity that amnzes. and neces-
sity must soon compel change in the
plan of campaign II the fight Is not to be
given up. Bawling cannot be sustained
at concert pitch with good results for
months at a stretch, and so far Mr.. Hanna
mas newspapers have given their
strength to bawling. Unmistakable
hoarsencss has ensued, as matter Of
course. Everybody who can read has
beenlongaware that the single-standard
press wishes to be understood that any
man who offers an argument ia favor OF
bimetallism is a fool, lunntic, re-
pudiator, rogue and loathly foe OF
the national honor, Of which Mr.. Hanna
and the contributing trusts and syndi-
Gates are, for this occasion only, the
special guardians. II the gold-standard
press has anything else to say on the
subject of finance, the time has certainly
arrived when 1t should utter itself with
some effort at coherency.
The readers Of Mr.. Hanna's news
papers this side Of the Alleghanies
know good deal more about the money
question than they did few months
ago. They have learned that there Is
plenty of sanity behind the silver cause.
For one thing, they have been listening
To and perusing Mr.. Bryan's addresses,
and such OF these readers as desire to
remain gold men not unreasonably
yenrn for something better in reply than
dull jeers and cheap abuse. The hum
blcst man who has read Mr.. Bryan's
Brooklyn speeches is fully competent
to answer everything that he has heard
from the gold advocates, and to supply
them with great stores of needed infor-
nation besides. In those speeches Mr.
Bryan exposed the dangers, the folly,
the crimlnality of our existing system
of finance, gave sound reasons why we
should reopen the mints to silver, and
in his comprehensive, mastery way met
and overthrow the objections, sincere
