HAVE CALIFORNIA
GIRLS |I[ LONG LIMBS?.
Court Called Upon to Decide
Whether They Are Natural
Born Reachers.

i Stockton, CAL, Dec. 9.-Have the
girls Of Stockton longer limbs than
those of other parts of the world? On
the answer to this question hinges the
decision in the lawsuit of Remer versus
Mrs. Horstman, a local milliner and
cloak merchant, and Justice Parker has
to decide the suit. ~:
Mrs. Horstman bought a short time
ago large stock of cloaks from plain
tiff, who is a New York wholesaler.
Among the lot were several dozen
that the garments, elegant in every
other particular, were too short-sleeyed
for the misses of Stockton, and so she
refused to pay for them and Remer
brought suit to collect.
The case was tried before Justice
Parker today and the plaintiff intro
duced testimony to show that the coats
were made according to standard
'D'S a. Horstman t. testified that the the coats coats
were not long enough in the sleeves by
three inches for the young women of
Stockton.
To decide such question of-hand
| was too much for Justice Parker, and
he has taken the case under advisement
| and he is thinking seriously Of sending
| for the measurements Of the arms OF
girls in various states for the purpose
Of comparing them with. the. average
length Of arm Of the Stockton miss. II
the girls of other states have shorter
arms than California misses then Mrs
Horstman loses, but, on the other hand
of the Stockton feminine arm is no
above the average in length, Mrs
Horstman wins. The decision may b.
far-reaching. It will determine whethe:
or not California girls are natural-bor1

Newport News, Va, July ~, 1903.
Last summer while recovering from ILL
ness of fever, had a severe attack of
Inhammatory Rheumatism in the knees,
from which I was unable to leave nv
room for several months. I was treated
by two doctors and also tried different
kinds of 1inaments and medicines which
seemed to relieve me from pain for
awhile, but at the same time I was not
any nearer getting well. One day while
reading paper saw an advertisement
of S. S. S. for Rheumatism. I decided
to give it a trial, which I did at once.
After I. had taken three bottles felt
great deal better, and I still continued
to take it regularly until I was entirely
cured. I now feel better than for years,
and cheerfu11y recommend S. S. S. to
any one suffering from Rheumatism.

Interchange OF state dental licenses. and
the naval dental bill, providing for the APP
pointment of corps OF dentists In the
United States navy.
DIR. Bryant said he was much Interested
