WHAT IS PAIN BALM?

Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a lini-
ment and, while adapted to all the or
binary uses of liniment, has qualities
which distinguish it from other rem
edies of this class Pain Balm is espe-
cially beneficial for rheumatism. Thou
sands of cases can be cited in which
it has effected a 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, burns 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 unsightly scar
remaining 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. For sale by all dealers, Ben
son, Smith & Co., general agents.

Where Salt 10 Obtained.

There are two general sources from
which salt is obtained. natural brines
and solid deposits. A number Of theor-
les have been advanced to account for
the latter. The general impression
among scientific men is that rock salt
has been formed by evaporation from
ancient seas, which had inclosed in
some way. In confirmation Of this
notion 1t is pointed out that deposits
are being made to-day at the bottom
Of several well-knOwn salt lakes. ssut
doubts have been expressed as to inc
of the explanation to
such thick strata as those at Stassturt,
Germany, eighteen hundred feet deep.
and at Sperenberg. near Berlin. thirty
six hundred feet thick. However this
may be. tho substance is found. In
greater or less purity. in all parts OF
the world. The minerals associated
with It are those which are apt to

known as salt Is principally chloride
Of sodium. But chlorides Of lime and
and even minute quaint

Things That Never Cie.

The pure, the bright. the beautiful.
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The Impulses Of wordless prayer,
The dreams Of love and truth:
The longings after something lost
The spirits yearnng cry.
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die
The tinid hand stretched forth to all
brother IN his need,
A kindly word In griers dark hour
That proves friend indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When justice threatens nigh;
The sorrow Of a contrite heart
These things shall never die.
The memory Of clasping hand,
The pressure of a kiss.
And all the trifcs. sweet and frail.
That make up loves first bliss;
If with firm, unchanging faith,
And holy trust and high.
Those hands have clasped, those liz.
have met
These things shall never die
The cruel and the bitter word,
That wounded as 1t fell:
The chilling want of sympathy
We feel but never tell;
The hard repulse that chills tho heart,
Whose hopes were bounding high,
In an unfading record kept
These things shall nsver die.
n
Let nothing pass. for every hand
Must find some work to do:
Lose not a chance to wakcn love-
Be firm and just and true.
So shall light that can not fade
Eeam on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee
These things shall never do.
