Two California women have braved
the fatigues of Mount Popocatape51,
They are Mrs. Eli Llewellyn and Mrs,
Schumann-Warthman, members OF
Sorosis Club of this city, who are trav-
cling in Mexico. In a letter written
at the City OF Mexico, Mrs. Llewellyn
describes the ascent.
Friends tried to dissuade them. but
with a letter from General Ochoa, the
owner of the mountain, they set out.
Animals and guides were provided,
and dressed in heavy knickerbockers
they started for the summit on mule
back. They carried, besides blankets,
rubber capes to protect them from the
rain, which falls at this season nearly
every afternoon.
The trip was ~uneventful until they
reached the snow line, when they
abandoned the mules. 1t was hard
climbing up the steep trail, and two
thirds of the way up they saw clouds
gathering below. Here they secured
their last clear view of the great plain,
with the Cholula Pyramid in the dis
lance. The rarity of the air socn made
progress difficult, but after great eff
forts they at last reached the summit
and sank upon the snow.
They remained an hour on the noun
tain top and then made a swift de-
scent and returned to Mexico City,
where they received many eongfatula-
tons for their pluck.

Little Pain.

The first touch of Rheumatism is a
fair warning of much torture to follow.
The little pains which dart through the
body are not 50 severe at first, possibly a
mere pang, and cause little incofven-
fence, but if the warning is .unheeded,
they will multiply rapidly and increase
in severity until they become almost
unbearab1e.
Rheumatism as a rule is much severer
in winter, though many are so afflicted
with it that they are crippled all the
year round. Those who felt its first
touch last year, may be sure that with
the first season of cold or d~isagreeab1e
weather, the mild pain of last year will
return as a severe one, and become more
and more intense until the disease has
them completely in its grasp.
Being a disease of the blood of the
most obstinate type, Rheumatism can
be cured only by a real blood remedy.
No liniments or ointnents can possibly
reach the disease. Swift's Specific
Is. S. S. is the only cure for Rheuma-
tism, because it is the only blood remedy
that goes down to the very bottom of all
obstinate blood troubles, and cures cases
which other remedies cannot reach.
The Monitor-register., 1897-11-05

Capt. o. F. Hughes, the popular rail-
road man of Columbia, S. c., says:
cat first 1 paid very little attention to
the little pains, but they became so
much sharper and more frequent that
before long 1 was almost disabled. The
disease attacked my muscles, which
would swell to many times their natural
size, and give me the most intense pain.
"I was ready to doubt that Rheuma-
tism could be cured, when I was advised
to try S. S. S. This remedy seemed to
get right at the cause of the disease, and
soon cured me completely. 1 believe
that S. S. S. is the only cure for Rheu-
matism, for I have had no return of the
disease for eight years."
The mercurial and potash remedies,
which the doctors always prescribe for
Rheumatism, only aggravate the trouble,
and cause a stiffness in the Joints and
aching of the bones which add so much to
the distress fthe disease, besides serious
~ affecting the digestive organs. S.S.S.
(Swift's Specifc) is the only cure for
Rheumatism because it is absolutely free
from potash, mercury or othe- minerals.

Now, this, my friends, explains some

terrible shaking up. The first voyage of
life may be very smooth; the last may
be a eu~roclydon. Many who start life in
great prosperity do not end it in pros
perity.
The great pressure of temptation
comes sometimes in this direction: At
about 40 years of age a mans nervous
system changes, and some one tells him
he must take stimulants to keep himself
up, and he takes stimulants to keep him
self up until the stimulants keep him
down, or q man has been going along for
80 or 40 years in unsuccessful business,
and here is an opening where by one dis
honorable action he can lift himself and
lift his family from all financial embar-
rassment. He attempts to leap the chasm,
and he falls into it.
Then it is in after life that the great
temptation of success comes. If a man
make a fortune before 80 years of age,
he generally loses it before 40. The SOL
i'd and the permanent fortunes for the
most part do not come to their climax
until in midlife or in old age. The most
Of the bank presidents have white hair.
Many Of those who have been largely
successful have been flung of arrogance
or worldliness or dissipation in old age.
They may not have lost their integrity,
but they have become SO worldly and
80 selfish under the influence of large
success that it is evident to everybody
that their success has been a temporal
calamity and al eternal damage. Con-
cerning many people, it may be said it
seems as if it would have been better if
they could have embarked from this life
at 20 or 30 years of age.
Do you know the reason why the vast
majority OF people die before BOP It is
because they have not the moral endur-
ancc for that which is beyond the 30,
