RHEU MATISM.

Physicians of large experience in rheu-
nlatism find it most difficult to cure, and
if so, then what can you expect of cheap
nostrums sent out by those ignorant
alike of disease and medicine, parties
who could not diagnose a case of rheu-
matism from lock- jaw beware of such.
If YOU want immediate relief and
quick cure, you will not be disappoint-
ed in "LeNard's Uric Acid Solvent"

specialist in Rheumatism, Mental and
nervous diseases.

COughed Up BayOnet Tlp.

Los Angeles, Cal, (Special) After
being given up to die of what the doctors
supposed was consumption, James w.
Plunkett, a veteran soldier of the regu-
lar army, now staying in the city,
coughed up the tip of bayonet out Of
his lungs and probably will get well.
Plunkett, who is soldier of 20 years
experience, and who last saw service
with the Forty-6rst United States Vol
unteer Infantry is unable to account for
the tip in his lung, but supposed he must
have swallowed it. He often used his
bayonet as a can opener, and presumably
she point broke off in can of meat.

stories are simply fabricated by British

in South Africa. The Beers deny that
any negotiations are in progress.

anybody and everybody irrespective
of fitness for membership. This we
have tried to avoid"
The following are among the rec
concentrations made by the grand
master workman: That the per cap
