Aching Joints.

Announce the presence of rheuma-
tism which causes untold suffering.
Rheumatism is due to Tactic acid in
the blood. 1t cannot be cured by
liniments or other outward applica-
tiens. Hoods Sarsaparilla purifies
the blood, removes the cause of rheu-
matism and permanently cures this
disease. This is the testimony of
thousands of thousands of people who
once suffered the pains of rheumatism
but who have actually been cured by
taking Hoods Sarsaparilla. Its
great power to act upon the blood
and remove every impurity is the
secret of the wonderful cures by
Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Another Fragment from the Iowa
Deposit and Loan Company.

At the last term of the District
court Geo. H. Kellogg brought an
action against the Iowa Deposit and
Loan Company of Des Moines, on
several of its certificates to recover
on the contracts for the moneys that
had been paid to the Company. The
defendant Company has just filed it's
answer to the claim of Mr.. Kellogg,
in which they set up as defenses that
because the certificates were not de-
posted with the Company to await
its pleasure in making payment, they
now decline to pay anything. That
after paying the losses and expenses
incurred in it's business, they are un-
able to pay only part of the amount
agreed upon in the certificates. That
the funds which the Company has, is
not more than sufficient to pay the
members outside of Mr.. Kellogg and
that therefor the directors have
decided they will not pay him any
thing, and modestly ask the court to
excuse them from paying back any
portion of the several hundred
dollars that was paid to the Company
on the several certificates sued on.
Others who have deposited their GER
titicates. with the Company have been
obliged to seek the aid of an officer
of the law to regain possession even
of the certificates, and whether the
directors can take money from the
people and arbitrarily refuse to COM
ply with their agreements and be ex-
cused fron paying back any portion
of it, and whether or not they have
any funds to pay with and according
to contract will be the subject of in
quiry when the case is tried. If the
Company prevails, the sooner the
public is warned that in dealing with
it they are running up against a
"shell game" in which they have no
show for their money after they have
parted possession, the better it will
be for the public welfare. This is the
concern John McHugh was connected
with until death gave him warning
that he would have to give up act
i've intrigue; but would be granted a
little more time for reflection and to
prepare to meet his Maker with such
explanation as he could furnish for
the "deeds done in the body" 1t
seems however that enough kindred
spirits remain in control to play the
game to finish, and that they hope
to be able to absorb what confidlng
public placed in their care for safe
keeping. We understand that the
concern is inviting new victims to
join them in localities where their
business methods are not known.
