REMARKABLE CURE OF RHEUMA.

henna, K CO., w. va.
About three years ago my wife had
an attack of rheumatism which confln-
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
fifty-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

shall have been made as herein pro

shall cause a. patent to issue to

patent shall recite in the body
thereof that the land therein des-

were prescribed by the Secretary of
the Interior July 10. 1897, which af-
ter directions as to the manner OF
execution and acknowledgement
of the deed, as TO how payment
shall be made and as to the proofs
TO be submitted with the deed, say:
"IV. Male grnntors must be q
years of age and female grantors
must be IS years of age at the exc
cution of the deed of conveyance
to entitle them to sell their land.
(See Mansfield's Digest of the Stat.
utes of Arkansas, 1884, Sec. 3i64).
Nv. The right of conveyance of
allotted lands by Peoria and Miami
indians is restricted TO adult per-
sons. as mentioned in paragraph
iv, who have each received allot-
ments of two hundred acres.
"VI. The title of the land con-
veyed by such deed shall not vest
in the grantee therein unless the
deed is approved by the Secretary
of the Interior"
A modification of these rules
March 1, 1893, related only to the
payment for lands sold and does
not affect the question now under
consideration.
II will be noticed that the plan of
the allotment of 1887, supra, to is.
sue first trust or conditional pat.
ent declaring the United States
would hold the allotted lands in
trust for the allottee or his heirs for
the period of twenty five years. and
at the expiration of that period

In the act of 1889, supra. This lat
ter law declares that the land shall
be inalienable for twenty-five years
and directs that a patent shall be
issued to each allottee, and that
such patent "shall recite in the
body thereof that the land therein
described and conveyed shall not
be alienated for twenty-five years
from the date of said patent" This
instrument vests in the allottee the
full title to the land aud clothes
him with all the attributes of abso-
lutte ownership except the one of
power to ALLEVIATE. The validity of
such q condition has been recog.
nized by the supreme court. Smith
v. Stevens, WALL, 32D; Taylor v.
Brown (l47 U. S., s40).
II was deemed necessary TO mod
ify the restriction ngainst aliena-
ton contained In the act of 1880,
supra, and hence the provision in
the act of 1897, supra, authorizing
the sale by adult hilottees who
have received two hundred acres of
land Of one hundred acres. Even
this provision was not without a
qualification for such sales were TO
be made Hunder such rules and
regulations as the Secretary Of the

question. Only adults were allowed
to sell allotted lands. and they only
one hundred acres thereof, and
only In pursuance of rules and
to be prescribed by the
Secretary of the Interior. Such
rules and regulations were adopted
one of the requirements being that
all conveyances should be approx
ed by the Secretary of the Interior
to make them effective.
If the inhibition in the act OF 1889
attached TO the lands in the hands
of heirs 1t still applies in the abb
sence of the consent of the Secre-
tary of the Interior, because the
rules made in pursuance of the act
of 1887, supra, require his approval
to all deeds. The language of the
act of 1889 shows that II was the
land and not the person that was in
the mind of Congress. The pro-
vision is that the 'land" shall not
be alienated. not that the allottee
shall not sell his land, and "any"
contract or agreement to sell or
convey such land or allotments so
patented, entered into before the
expiration of said term shall be alb
soiutely null and void. The pur-
pose was, as has been said by the
Supreme Court of similar provis-
ions in other laws, to protect the
Indian owner from improvident
disposition of his lands. The re-
quirement in the rules and regula-
tions that all sales shall be subject
to the approval of the Secretary OF
the Interior is a just one, aud cir
cumstances have frequently proven
necessary one to proper protec-
ton of the Indian.
I am of the opinion, and so ad.
wise you, that no conveyance OF
these allotted lands by the Indian
allottee or his heirs, made within
the period of inhibition mentioned
in the statute has the effect OF
transferring title until approved by
