rheumatism in Utah.

Frisco, Utah, May 2.-There is a
great deal Of Rheumatism in this and
neighboring States, and this painful
disease has crippled many strong
man and woman among an otherwise
healthy people.
Recently, however, there has been
introduced into Utah remedy for
Rheumatism which bids fair to stamp
out this awfully painful complaint. The
name of this new remedy is Dodd's
Kidney Pills. and it has already,
wrought some wonderful cures. Right
here in Frisco there is case of Mr..
Grace who had Rheumatism so bad in
his feet that he could hardly walk. He
tried many remedies in vain, but
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured him.
His wife says: "We.both had Kidney
Trouble and my husband had the
Rheumatism so bad that he could
hardly walk We used Dodd's Kidney
Pills with much benefit. We have
tried many remedies. but none have
done us so much good as Dodd's kid
ney Pills"
Similar reports come from all over
the State and 1t would seem as if
Rheumatism had at last been con-
1uered.

Bat Masterson on the Solitary HoIdut

New York Press: when you read in,
the paper, as you do about once every
six months, that one man has entered
q gambling house or a crowded saloon.
held up the entire crowd and made his
escape with the money. you are apt to
think that particular crowd must have
been little below par in the matter of
courage" said Bat Masterson the other
day. ut seems all the more evidence
of coWardice that in such cases prob
ably half the men held up are armed.
In reality they are no more cowardly'
than other men. The reason they sub
init so calmly is that each in n crowd of
that sort is absolutely certain the eyes
of the holdup man are looking straight
into his. In fact they certainly do APP
pear that way, but that is due to a little
optical delusion.
"Of course, the highwayman wears a
mask and i'm almost every case this
mask is made of dark cloth. Where
holes are cut in the mask for eyes the
skin shows light against the edges of
the mask / don't understand why 1t
should be SO. but 1T is fact that when
a man is wearing one of those black
masks his eyes seem to be staring
straight at any one who looks at the
mask. No matter in what part of the
room you stand. or how much you
move, the eyes back of the black mask
will seem to be concentrated on you.
1.-The artists know this trick and they
use 1T in some of the mask pictures.
Probably you have seen a picture of
| that sort and understand the thing bet
ter than / can explain it. If you have
ever looked at a masked man with u
gun picture you know the eyes and
the gun always seem to be on you.
That's the secret of the solitary holdup
game. When a man thinks the other
fellow has the drop on him he is apt to
be mighty slow about drawing q gun
and starting trouble"
