Oh, the Pain of
Rheumatism!

Rheumatism often causes the most in.
tense suffering. Many have for years
vainly sought relief from this disabling
disease, and are to-day worse off than
ever. Rheumatism is q blood disease,
and Swirts Specific is the only cure, be-
cause it is the only remedy which can
reach such deep-seated diseases.

Clippings from the Bowling
Green Times, Oct. 27, '97,

No optician ever visited or lived
in Bowling Green (Ky who is Civ
Ing more satisfaction than Dr. ].
Harraes, the eminent Chicago spe
cIalist, who is making peoples eyes
easy, at J. B. Settles, Dr. Harraes
stands at the very top of his pro
fession, aud has proven himself not
only a skilled scientist, but a genius
in his line. Those who have been
fitted with glasses by the doctor are
loud in their praise of him, and re-
gard his comiug to Bowling Green a
blessing. Many Of them have tried
at various times, different opticians
but they have utterly failed to give
relief. But DR.. Harraes gave relief
in every case.
To Whom it May Concern This
is to state that DR., Harraes exam
ined my eyes and fitted a pair Of
glasses for me. I cheerfu0ly state
that they gave me better satisfac-
tion than any glasses I ever wore,
and in fact made my vision as good
as new, though a celebrated opti-
clan had before told me that the
sight of my eyes was past redemp-
ton. I take pleasure in stating
that I consider the doctor a master
iu his line, and well worthy of the
patronage of all afflicted with poor
vision. E-vIs H PORTER

Mrs, Emma Gaines, after being
troubled with her eyes for years,
says MY glasses are perfectly
soothing to my eyes, and give great

what never fails? asked the youth
full rootcr
"Why, what I've just been telling
you. 1t may be superstition, but |
have always found where the man at

catcher or pitcher, he never gets
around to the plate. You saw Selbach
Just pick up the ball and hand 1t to
Mcclure. He got his base on balls,
but was forced out At second. 1t may
be superstition. but I've never known
It to fail I've got stacks Of score

dents are noted. Now watch and see.
Any player that touches the ball while
he Is at bat doesn't score"

After a muddy ride, n bicycle re-
qulres careful attention. All mud
should be removed with rags or a
sponge, preferably the latter, using
warm water and the machine should
then be wiped dry. If it Is not posi-
bic TO thoroughly clean 1t at once, the
plated parts should be rubbed over
with an oily rag, but 1t Is adj
vlsable to clean 1t at once II possible.
The chain can generally be cleaned
with n brush and then a lubricant APP
piled. II In a bad condition, 1t should
be removed and cleaned with kerosene,
gasoline or soda. Care must be taken
TO fit the nut on the chain bolt tightly
when replacing the chain.
The bottom brackets and nuts should
be cleaned out with kerosene or gas
ollne. and then oiled 1t there Is no
stand available and the wheel must be
turned upside down, pads should be
placed to protect the saddle and handle
bars. After the machine has been
cleaned Of all dirt and the bearings
oiled. the bright parts should be polish
ed and given final rubbing with
piece Of channels leather, which may
also be used on the enamel. The
spokes and rims should receive as
much care as any other parts.

Advice 10 Golfers.

Walter ]. Travis, the golf expert,
gives some pertinent advice to begin
ners which even older heads may d.
gest with profit. Here Is what he says
about the swing:
AT the top Of the swing the knuc-
kles of the left hand will be lying nj
most fiat and uppermost, the toe Of
the club pointing almost straight down
TO the ground. The trouble with the
large majority of players who do not
drive well proceeds from the fear that
If the face Of the club Is allowed to be
diverted in the upward swing from
the angle at which the ball was adj
dressed-lf, in other words, Ii is turned
In any way-a slice will result. Con-
sequently 1t is carried up straight, and
the stroke is robbed Of a great deal of
power. There need be no such fear.
Start the wrists right in the upward
movement, and they will take care Of
themselves in the downward swing If
left alone. II the turn is hurried, how
ever, the face of the club will be turn
ed slightly In and the ball foundered
or pulled. while II the turn is not made
soon enough a slice will result owing
to the club face turning somewhat to
The right"

The Rarweed Pest.

ANY farmer who has to wrestle with
ragweed in his corn and potatoes thinks
unkind thoughts Of the pernicious ac-
tivity with which II insists on growing,
saws The Rural New Yorker, but 1t is
something worse than a weed. 1t sup
plies food to support those pestilent
beetles who ravage the strawberry
crop. When strawberries are out OF
season, Mr.. Harpalus turns to his
friend, the ragweed, and subsists com
fortably on its seeds. This Is another
Illustration Of the fact that a weed
that is, a plant out of place-is not
merely stealing the nOurlshment which
should feed economic crops, but Is also
giving active aid to their enemies. We
now know that many weeds are the
hosts Of fungous diseases which, when
occasion offers, will ravage valuable
crops, and it appears that similarly
they give aid to our insect enemies.
This shows the danger Of permitting
weeds to remain IN any odd hooks on
a farm, as we'll as in cultivated fields.
They are positive danger which may
at any time become an active one.

BroiJinr Chickens.

At q recent farmers institute some
question was raised as to the price
Of broilers and their weight. A repre-
sentative Of The New England Farmer
recently interviewed some Of the mar
ketmen Cd the subject to get their YER
sion of the story. The demand for
broilers calls for those Of light weight,
as the hotel or restaurant keeper cam
not afford to serve too large an order
at the going price. Consequently the
smaller the chicken, provided 1t Is
plump, we'll grown and well dressed,
the higher the price. Broilers weigh
ing from one and one-half to two
pounds are worth % cents per pound.
Smaller ones weighing from one-half to
three-quarters of pound are quoted
