An Ancient Belief.

The ancients believed that rbeuma-
tsm was the work of q demon within a
man. Any one who has had an attack
ofscistic or infsmatory rheumatism will
agree that the inhction Is demoniac
enough to warrant the belief. It has
never been claimed that Chsmberlsin's
Pain Balm would cast out demons, but
it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds
bear testimony to the truth of this
statement. One application relieves the
pain, and this quick relief which it
affords Is alone worth msny-times Its
cost. For sale by all druggists.

Village Improvement Associations.

village Improvement Associations.
A good story is told Illustrating
the fact that visitors, where the first
village improvement association or
iginated, quickly entered into the
spirit of the place. A professor
from Ann Arbor, Mich, received
Quilted a number of letters one
morning, taking them himself from
the postoffice, which stood back a
little from the road of the main
street in the village, behind large
and beautiful elm. A neat, clean
grass plot surrounded the elm, and
not a straw, or scrap, or paper, or
anything untidy was to be found
in the vicinity of this post office.
The professor, anxious to look
over his mail, hurridly tore open
the envelopes, scattering, as he
walked toward home, smaller and
larger bits of them, crumpling in
his hand some advertisements and
strewing them along his pathway.
Suddenly he came to his senses; he
realized that he was in village
improvement community; he recol-
lected that every man and woman
in it was doing his or her share to
keep that village immaculate, and,
with quck look about him to see
if he was observed, he turned, rap
idly retraced his steps, picked up
every scrap he had dropped and
tucked them into his pocket, to be
destroyed when he reached the
home in which he was entertained.
