Treat Your Kidneys for Rheumatism.

When you are suffering from rheuma.

at once so that they will eliminate the
uric acid from the blood. Foley's
Kidney Cure is the most effective rem

Fraternity influence Is one of the DOW
erful factors of university life by reason
of the strong hold it has upon its own
individual members. The close friend
ships of school life are reckoned by most
students as among the most priced of
the actual benefits of education. Young
women, away from home, and attending
such a school as Nebraska university,
are to be considered happy and extreme
ly favored in the existence of fraternity
organizations. Nothing else can afford
the girls such close and ideal association
with one another.
Delta Delta Delta is one of the younger
fraternities in the University of Ne
braska as it has been in existence here
for about nine years. AS national Or
ganization the fraternity was founded
at Boston university the night before
Thanksgiving in the year 1883. From
Boston, as a center, chapters have been
granted throughout the eastern and
southern states and west even to the
Pacific coast, to most of the leading
universities and colleges of the country.
The national character of the society has
made 1t a very universal instrument in
promoting the Greek Life" so treas
ured and loved by college girls. Mrs.
Sarah Bartlett Hayes of Boston is grand
president and head Of a grand council, to
which is entrusted the national control
of the fraternity. The official organ of
the society is the Trident published
quarterly. This magazine contains re-
ports from the various chapters in the
different colleges and leading topics of
interest to the members.
You may know the Tri-Delta girl
when you meet her by her crescent
shaped pin enclosing three stars. The
pin of the first degree is small trident.
But when once you have met her you
are sure to know her sisters even with

Particle of danger of catching small
pox who eats little lettuce every
day. Smallpox belongs to the scor-
butte class of diseases. Sailors at
sea, deprived of fresh vegetables,
get scurvy- Scurvy is a typical
scorbutic disease. Smallpox is an
other; Smallpox always RACES dur
ring the winter season, when the
poor people are deprived of fresh
vegetable foods. Celery and onions
are good for this purpose, but there
is such a long interval between
their being gathered and being eat
en- that they lose most of their anti
scorbutic properties. Lettuce is sery-
ed shortly after it is picked, and
hence contains the valuable proper
ties which will prevent smallpox.
We say without the least hesita-
ton or reserve that lettuce will pre-
vent smallpox. 1t is a thousand
times better than vaccination. 1t
has no liabilities, like vaccination,

willing to stake our professional
reputation on the broad statement
that any one who eats lettuce daily
