The old code explaining the signifi-
canoe Of patch on a certain part of the
face was as follows: 1.-THE 'impas-
sioned' patch was fixed at the corner

of the cheek, the receleuse Tor receiver
Of stolen goods, on spot or pimple;
the effrontee, Or bold-faced, ON the nose,
and the ''coquette' on the lips. A round
patch was called ''the assassin" The
great Massillon preached sermon in
which he mathematical patches. The
effect produced by his discourse was
rather unexpected; patches were worn
in greater number than ever and known
as mouches de Massillon.

Helpless
RheuTnatiCS!

Rheumatism is no respeeter OF per
sous-the healthy and vigorous are
as liable to its attacks as the weak.
The symptoms of the disease are
almost urnoticed at first, so insidl-
ouslv do they steal over the body;
gradually the little pains and stiffness
increase, until they develop greater
Inconvenience day by day.
The knees, ankles, and other joints
of the body ache constantly, swell
ing to several times their natural
size; the patient finds himself unable
to get around; is soon incapacitated
for business, and later is confined to
his bed, utterly helpless.
1t is a great mistake to expect relief
from such condition by the applica-
ton of 1iniInents and other external
remedies. The medical profession adj
nit that the disease is in the blood,
and it is but reasonable that only a
blood remedy, one purely vegetable,
and free from potash, can afford re-
lief. S. S. S. (Swift's Speciticl is an
unfai1ing remedy for Rheumatism,
and has cured the severest cases,
