REMARKABLE CURE OF RHEUMA-

Kenna, Jackson Co., w. Va.
About three years ago my wife had
an attack of rheumatism which confin-
ed her to her bed for over a month and
rendered her unable to walk a step
without assistance, her limbs being
swollen to double their normal sifie. Mr..
S. Maddox insisted on my using Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. I purchased a
ifty-cent bottle and used it according
to the directions, and the next morning
she walked to breakfast without assist
ance in any manner, and she has not
had a similar attack since.-A. B. Par

THE MORPHINE HABIT INCREAS-
TNG

1t is stated by prominent physicians
that the number of morphine fiends is
increasing. Owing to their delicate
nervous organization, the habit finds
the greatest number of it's victims
among women, although men too are
not exempt. They take the deadly
stuff whenever they feel depressed or
have a slight ailment, and before they
realize find themselves in the grasp of a
practice which can but end in the grave.
This morbid craving m from a run
