Oh the Pain!

The aches and pains Of Rheumatism
become a constant companion to all who
are victims of this disabling disease.
Much suffering could be avoided if the
first warning pains of Rheumatism were
needed and the proper treatment at ono
taken. But the people generally are
not acquainted with the cause of the
disease, though thousands know its tor
lures. Those who use 1iniments and
ointments cannot understand why they
grow worse each winter, and find them
selves gradually becoming unable to get
around as they once could; yet they
know that their trouble came on at first
as little aches and pains, which hardly
attracted their attention.i
Everybody should know more about
rheumatism; they should know that it
Is a peculiar condition of the blood upon
which all the 1iniments in the world
can have no effect whatever. The
best blood remedy is needed-one which
is able to go to the very seat of the
disease, and force it out. Swift's Specific
(S.S.S.) is the right remedy for Rheu-
matism, because it is the only blood
remedy free from mercury, potash and
other minerals which intensity the dis
ease, causing stiffness of the joints and
aching of the bones.

"For five weeks l lived on cold water,

terribly from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on his
stomach. What stayed, wasn't properly
digested and gave him terrible pangs.

peptics don't get enough nourishment.
They are generally thin and weak.
They may eat enough, but they DOM
digest enough. Much of what they eat
turns into poison. If this keeps on

A RIGHT ROYAL ROBE.
Made of Rare Feathers For the Ruler Of
the Sandwich Islands

Made of Rare Feathers For the Ruler of
the Sandwich Islands.
A million dollars seems a pretty
round sum to pay for a cloak, and prob
ably even Worth never dreamed Of ask
ing SO fabulous a price for the most
elaborate of his garments. And vet in
the National museum at Washington is
a cloak the cost of which cannot be
reckoned at less than this vast amount,
and ladies may be pleased to learn that
1t was not a woman, but a man, who
was guilty of such a piece of extrava-
gance.
Long years ago, when the Hawaiian
Islands, small as they are, supported
not II but several Furnishing king
doms, the kings, chiefs and mobiles,
whenever they appeared in public on
state occasions, wore, instead Of the
purple and ermine of more civilized
p~otentates, capes and cloaks of brilliant
feathers. The ladies of the court were
forced to content themselves with feath-
er boas, as we should call them, known
as leis. These capes and collars were
made from the yellow, red and black
feathers OF a few species of small birds
peculiar to the Sandwich Islands and
called, from their habits, honey suck
ers. Fashion ruled even in those DAYS.
and as the yellow feathers were scarcer
than the red yellow was the fashionable
color, and the more powerful the chief
the more yellow was his robe of state.
These yellow feathers We're found only
Oh two or three species of birds, the
finest coming from a bird called in the
native language mamo and known as
Drepanis pacifica by ornithologists.
These birds, with their striking black
and yellow plumage, We're as dear to
the hearts of the Hawaiian monarchs as
they might be today to the hearts of
patriotic Princeton students and were
sought for far and near throughout the
islands. The populace paid poll taxes in
golden feathers instead of golden dol
lars, and as each bird furnished but a
few feathers the taxes may be copsid-
cred as having been high. Some esti-
mate of the value of the feathers may
be formed from the prices paid in later
times, when a piece of nankeen cloth
valued at 81. so was the equivalent Of
five feathers; but, after all, the great
element i'll the cost of these cloaks was
time and labor, since the making of a
single cloak required from 80 to 100
years.
AS the feathers obtained for taxes
were very far from supplying the de-

employ a regular staff Of bird catchers,

he saw in his sons house at Washing
ton and what Daniel Webster said to
him and how grandly Millard treated
his father in the White House. The old
mans face was illumined with the story

1t is a great day with you when your
old parents come to visit you. Your lit
tie children stand around with great
wide open eyes, wondering how any
body could be SO old. The parents can-
not stay many days, for they are a lit
tie restless, and especially at nightfall,
because they sleep better in their own
bed, but while they tarry you somehow
feel there is a benediotion in every room
in the house. They are a little feeble,
and you make it as easy as you can for
them, and you realize they will prob
ably not visit you very often-perhaps
never again. You go to their room after
they have retired at night to see if the
lights are properly put out, for the old
people understand candle and lamp bet
ter than the modern apparatus for illu-
mination. In the morning, with real
interest in their health, you ask how
they rested last night. Joseph, in the
historical scene of the text, did not
think any more of his father than you
do of your parents. The probability is,
before they leave your house they half
spoil your children with kindnesses.

At council meeting last night he charged
that a number of citizens, who do not

been given to understand, consists of such
things as 500 pianos, fine horses. and car
riages, of which the city clerk has no re-
cord and on which the owners never con-
descend to pay taxes. Mayor Mason con-
tirmed the reports which Alderman Fen

some method of compelling payment of
such taxes. The matter was reported to
the committee on taxes and revenues to
