VIII T IS PAIN BALM?

Chamberla!n's Pain Balm is a lini-
nent and. while adapted to all the ordi-
nary uses of liniment. has qualities
which distinguish ii from other rene
dies of this class. Pain Balm is espa-
cially beneficial for rheumatism. Thou
sands of cases can be cited in which it
has effected cure when the sufferer
had previously tried the best medical
service without securing relief. Pain
Balm is positively guaranteed to give
relief in the most severe cases of chron-
ic or acute rheumatism.
Pain Balm heals bruises, burrs and
scalds in less time than any other treat
ment. 1t is ''antiseptic" that is, it pre-
vents putrefaction and by so doing,
generally prevents an unrightly scar re-
naming after the injury is healed. For
lame back, lumbago and neuralgia,
Pain Balm has no equal. It has the
quality of getting to the right spot"
No sufferer from these distressing af-
fections should defer a trial of this
remedy. One application gives relief.
Try it. Benson, Smith G. Co., Ltd,
wholesale agents, sell it.

BEFORE WE CAN

use them, iron and gold must
first be got out Of the ore. The
same principle applies to cod liv-
er oil. Its virtues are not in it's
fatty matters; much less in it's
slckening taste and SMELL No
consumptive, or sufferer from any
other wasting disease, was ever
greatly benefited by the so called
"plain cod liver oil. The shock
p it gives to the nerves, the repul-
sion and disgust it excites in the
stomach, the outrages it commits
upon the senses of smell and
taste, are enough to spoil any
medicinal potency that may be
in it for the majority of people.
This-to say nothing about its
being indigestible. Yet there
has always been reason to believe
that, among the elements which
form cod liver oil, there ex-
listed curative properties of the
highest value. But it was neces-
sary to separate them from the
nauseating waste material with
which they were combined. This
was successfully accomplished in
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
and IN this efiective remedy,
made palatable as honey, we have
the very heart and soul of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites, Extracts of Malt and Wild
Cherry. These constitute a tissue
builder, blood purifier, a health
remover beyond comparison. Dis
ease yields to it with complete
ness and rapidity which aston
ishes medical men quite as much
as it delights their patients. In
all wasting conditions, Scrofula
and Blood Disorders, La Grippe,
Chronic Bronchitis, Pulmonary
Affections, etc, it never fails to
relieve and cure. DR.. Louis w.
Bishop says: q take pleasure in
saying | have found it a most
efficient preparation, embodying
all of the medicinal properties
Of a pure cod liver oil, in a most
palatable form" 1t stands in the
front rank in the march of med
icine. Effective from the first

WHY CH. WILCOX

Editor AdVertiser:-In your issue of

This is an injustice to me. This is add

never presented any charges against me,
nor has it made public any reason for its
summary action against me- AS tar as

author.-y to vent it's meanness and spite
by removing me without cause or notice

Newark. N. J., July 1e.-The answer
OF the United States Steel Corporation
to the suit brought by j. Aspinwall
Hodge, William II. Curtis and Ber-
Rard Smith, who asked for an injunc-
ton to prevent the company from car
rying out the $500, Zoo, 900 bond con-
version plan, was filed yesterday be-
fore Vice Chancellor Emery When the
case came up before the vice chancel-
Tor il was put over until July 23 The
answer is sworn to by Charles NJ
Schwab. as president
For the first time since the organiza-
ton OF the steel corporation a detailed
statement of the assets OF the proper
ties of the subsidiary companies is fur
nished. These assets, II is stated, in
clude 400 producing mills of the value
of $500. 600. 900; 70 blast furnaces, OF the
value of S4s.00o,OOo; iron and bessemer
ore properties OF the value of 500, 000,-
600; coal and coke properties of the
value OF $780, 100000 natural gas fields
OF the value of $4,000, 600; cash in
bank to the amount OF $50. 0O0. 900, and
over sS0,000,O00 of materials in pro-
cess OF manufacture. The total value
or the company's property, including
cash and cash assets is placed at ST.

The company's earnings are stated to
be at the rate OF more than S140, 0OO, 900
a year. A saving of $4,000. 900 year
is credited to the ore properties. and
1t is estimated that the ownership of

company $4,000, 900 annually. The
earnings of the coal and coke proper
ties are stated to be more than 81. OOO.-

false certificate when they certified
that In their Judgment the properties
were worth at least the par value of
the preferred stock after deducting all
Indebtedness.

any OF the acts contemplated will
work fraud or injury TO the complain

such acts when contaminated will be
greatly TO the benefit of the corporation

says that some of the directors are
members of the syndicate formed by

that that fact was communicated to
stockholders in circular dated April
II, 1902.
