If the people generally knew the true
cause of Rheumatism, there would be
10 such thing as liniments and lotions
for this painful and disabling disease.
The fact is, Rheumatism is disordered
state of the blood-it can be reached,
therefore, only through the blood. But
all blood remedies cannot cure Rheuma-
tism, for it is an obstinate disease, one
which requires a real blood rSMedy-
something more than a mere tonic.
Swift's Specific is the only real blood
remedy and promptly goes to the very
bottom of even the most obstinate case.
Like all other blood diseases, the
doctors are totally unable to cure Rheu-
matism. In fact, the only remedies
which they prescribe are potash and
mercury, and though temporary relief
may result, these remedies produce
stiffness of joints and only intensity the
disease. Those who have had experience
with Rheumatism know that it becomes
more severe each year.

The case Of Mrs. James Kell, of 6II

should convince everyone that it is
useless to expect doctors to cure Rheu.
matism. Under recent date she writes I:
"a few months ago l had an attack Of
Sciatic Rheumatism in its worst form.
The pain was so intense that my ner-
vous system was Frustrated, and / was
for long time perfectly helpless. The
attack was an unusually severe one,
and my condition was regarded as
being very dangerous.
81 was attended by one Of the most
able doctors Of Washington City, who is
also a member Of the faculty of the
leading college here. He told me to
continue his prescription and 1 would
get we'll. After having it re6lled twelve
times and receiving not the least bene-
fit, declined to take it longer.
Having heard S.S.S. (Swift's Spe-
ci6c) recommended for Rheumatism,
l decided, almost in despair, to give
it a trial. After taking few bot
ties was able to hobble around on
crutches, and very soon had no need
at all for them, for S.S.S. cured me
sound and well. ALI the distressing
pains have left me, my appetite has
returned, and am happy to be again
restored to perfect health"

to cure these deep-rooted diseases which
are beyond the reach of all other RENE

Catarrh, Cancer, Scrofula, Eczema, and
all other blood diseases. 1t is the only

IT PAYS.

It pays to wear a smiling face,
 And laugh our troubles down, For all our little trials wait
 Our laughter or our frown. Beneath the magic of a smile
 Our doubts will fade away, As melts the frosts in early spring
 Beneath the sunny ray. It pays to make 3 worthy cause, |.
 By helping it, our own; To give the current of our lives
 A true and noble tone. It pays to comfort heavy hearts,
 Oppressed with dull despair, And leave in sorrow darlened lives 4 gleam of brightness there. It pays to give a helping hand To eager, earnest youth, To noJe, with all their waywardness, Their courage and their truth; To strive with sympathy and love
 Their confidence to win; It pays to open wide the heart
 And let the sunshine in"

SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A Simple Harmless Remedy-Yet It Cures the Worst Cases of Dys-
 pepsia and Indigestion.

Dr. Jennison, who has made life study of stomach trouble, says: All forms of indigestion really amount to the same thing, that is, failure to com pletely digest the food eaten; no mat ter whether the trouble is acid dys- pepsia or sour stomach, belching of wind, nervous dyspepsia or loss of flesh and appetite; person will nos nave any of them if the stomach can be induced by any natural harmless way to thoroughly digest what is eaten, and this can be done by a sim pie remedy which I have tested in hundreds of aggravated cases with complete success. The remedy is a combination of fruit and vegetable es- sences, pure aseptic pepsin and golden seal put up in the form of pleasant tasting tablets and sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. One or two of these tablets should be taken after meals and all lowed to dissolve in the mouth and mingling with the food in the stomach digests it completely before it has time to ferment, decay and sour.
 On actual experiment. one grain of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest three thousand grains of meat, eggs and similar wholesome foods
 It is safe to say if this wholesome remedy was better known by people generally, it would be a national blessing, as we are a nation of dys- peptics and nine-tenths of all diseases owe their origin to imperfect diges- tion and nutrition.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a secret patent medicine, but a fifty cent package will do more real good for weak stomach than fifty dollars worth of patent medicines and per- son has the satisfaction of knowing just what he is putting into his stom- ach, which he does not know, when widely advertised patent medicines are used.

THE TYPEWRITER DID 1T

A little mistake Of Miss Mar
gret Williams, who, in copying
a bill recently passed by the New
Jersey Legislature, has saved
that State the snug little sum
of $45,S5o annually. 1t appears
that Miss Williams, who was
employed as a copyist by the
Legislature, inadvertently sub
stituted the word "providing"
for the word "prohibiting" in
a bill providing for a special
election, and the mistake nee
essitated the reassembling of
the Legislature.
The expense of the extra session
cost the State a few hundred
dollars. But the bill was SO a.
mended as to save the State
$3.50 annually, Miss Williams
did the people of New Jersey an
inadvertent service. The State
owes the young lady a vote of
thanks, and there are some other

The Best Remedy for Rheu-
matiSm.

From the Fairhaven IN. " Register.
James Rowland of this village,
states that for twenty-five years
his wife has ben sufferer from
rheumatism. A few nights ago
she was in such pain that she
was nearly crazy. She sent Mr..
Rowland for the doctor, but he
had read Of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm and instead of going for
the physician he went to the
store and secured a bottle of it.
His wife did not approve OF Mr..
Rowland's purchase at first, but
nevertheless applied the Balm
thoroughly and in an hours
time was able to GO to sleep. She
now applies it whenever she
feels an ache or q pain and finds
that it always gives relief. He
says that no medicine which she
had used ever did her as much
good. The Is and SO cents sizes

The artist tells how he saw
one of the sable outlaws of the

and followed up the sound of
chopping and saving until he
came upon shingle mill about
which there was a small clearing,
but thirty PAGES away the wood
closed in again with an inex>

twigs, a gigantic negro with a
tattered blanket and a gun part

His head bare, ragged breeches
and boots, his grizzly gray beard
and hair, his great strength and
energy, fear and ferocity made
him a terrible persyn to have

forth a powerful hand to hold
back the briers. The negro did
not see the Intruder, who obtain

D EATH FROM POISON
Miss Woodliff Killed by Chew
ing an Unknown Weed
BROTHER AND SISTER
SICK.
An Anticipated Birth Day Fest
iva. Was Transformed into
a Funeral Procession.

A fearful accident occurred
about three and a half miles
from Dahney, n. c., Saturday
evening The three oldest child
rem of Mr.. Junius Woodliff, con-
sisting of a daughter, 70 years
old, daughter and son younger,
accompanied by a young Mr..
Robson we're fishing on a stream
near their home, preparatory to
celebrating Mr.. Woodliffs birth
day Sunday, when they found
what they thought to be some
angelica growing near by the
water. Thinking it was angelica,
and being very fond of its flavor,
they began pulling it up and
chewing it.
1t was but a short while, how
ever, before the oldest girl, who
had chewed and swallowed more,
perhaps, than the others, began
to complain of sickness at the
stomach, and in a few minutes
was taken with violent couvul-
sions. The other girl and boy
were taken III the same way.
Young Robson was very much
frightened and summoned Mr..
Evans, near neighbor, with
his horses and wagon to carry
them home.
Mr., Woodliff, having finished
his work, walked down to the
stream, thinking he would have
some sport, too, catching fish,
and arrived upon the scene only
in time to see his Oldest daughter
breathing her last, and the girl
and boy III convulsiops. They
were Immediately carried home
and messenger sent for DR.. c.
D. Wyche, who, by great effort
succeeded in relieving the boy
and girl, who, it is now thought,
will recaver. The fatal herb is
supposed to be yellow jessamine.
Thus the anticipated birthday
festival was transformed into a
funeral procession.
