EVERY ONE ASKS HIM
HOW HE GOT RID OF HIS OBSTINATE
MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM.
MIR. Jones Tells OF tho Way by Which He
Treated Himself Successfully
When Doctors Failed.


Six physicians, all of them good, one Of
them specialist, Lad done their best
for Mr.. Jones at different times during
three years. and still he suffered fear
fully from tho tortures of rheumatism.
The rheumatism that had been DOR
mant in his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice in February,
1901. From that time OH for q period
of more than three years he was a con-
stant sufferer. He tried many kinds Of
treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn t
bulge. When regular doctors failed,
and one remedy after another proved
useless, many said: ''I should think he
would give it up and save his money :"
OF his condition at this time, Mr..
Jones says: "My rheumatism started
IN my right thigh, but i'll time it ap-
peared in every muscle of my body.
lost the use of my left arm en-
tirely and nearly lost the use Of my
right one. My feet were badly affected,
especially the bottoms of the heels.
When my right side was affected there
was swelling, but the left side didn'
swell when the disease settled there.
The internal organs didn't seem to be
involved at ell. The trouble was all in
the muscles aud the nerves."
Among the few who still encouraged
Mr.. Jones to think that a cure might
yet be found was friend who had rea-
son for great confidence in DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills, and acting on her
advice he bought box Of them i'm Sep
tember, 1904. The story OF what fol-
lowed is brief. but nothing could be
more satisfactory.
when I was on the third box" says
MIR. Jones, "I could realize change for
the better. felt sure then that DIR.
Williams Pink Pills were the right
medicine for my case. / kept OIL with
them for several weeks longer and now
/ am entirely well. and everybody is
asking what took"
Mr.. William Jones lives at Oxford,
Mich. DIR. Williams Pink Pills effect
wonderful cures in rheumatism, because
they work directly on the blood which is
the seat of the disease. They are sold
by every druggist.

Somebody SAYS That

When a woman asks a number OF
questions che is possessed Of idle
curiosity. When q man asks a num-
Der he is animated by keen desire
to improve his mind and enlarge his
sphere of knowledge. That is just
another one Of the little differences
between the sexes which ought to
show woman the utter impossibility
of ever hoping to attain equality
With man.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Judge Pugh left on the afternoon

holding this week a civil term of

A considerable number of

than half could be reached, not
withstanding Judge Pugh, ably
assisted by District Attorney
Campbell, made every effort to
try as many as possible. The
cases of the prisoners in Jail,
with the exception of one, were
all brought up and disposed of.

yesterday the Office was so quiet

Summer Schools Located.
A conference of school officers
was held in the parlors of the
Gordon Hotel last Wednesday for
the purpose of deciding the To-
cation of Summer Normal
Schools in this section of the
State.
There were present at the
meeting State Supt. j. B. Aswell
and Prof. J. E. Keeney, repre-
senting the State Institute
Board; Supt. McNeese of Calca-
sieu parish, Supt. Barry of
Acadia parish, Supt. Murray of
Cameron parish, Supt. Thomp-
son of St. Landry parish, ]. M.
Booze. member of School Board
of Calcasieu parish, and DR..
Moss, who represented the
School Board of Lafayette parish
in the absence of Supt. Alleman.
After explaining in detail the
plan of work mapped out for the
Summer Normal Schools by the
State Institute Board and the
good results which would follow
this systematic work, Supt.
Aswell invited free and frank
discussion of local conditions and
needs by the school officers
present, to enable the conference
to decide upon a line of action
that would best meet these re-
quirements. The conference
lasted two hours and reached an
agreement to hold Summer
Normal Schools lasting 4 weeks
at Lake Charles and Crowley
beginning June II, at Opelousas,
beginning July 10, and q Central
Parish Institute of two weeks
at Lafayette in August.
State Supt. Aswen expressed
his pleasure that every parish
invited to participate in the con-
ference at Lafayette was repre-
sented at this meeting, and COM
mented favorably upon the fact
that the same interest and spirit
was being manifested at all the
points visited in the State thus
far.
The public schools of the town
were visited by the members of
the conference in a body under
the escort of President Moss, of
the local School Board, and q
visit was paid to the Industrial
Institute by those remaining
over for the five O'Clock train
going west.
The visitors from Lake Charles,
Crowley and Opelousas, all three
of which places are provided
with substantial, c0mmOdiOus,
modern school buildings, were
impressed by the contrast with
our buildings and expressed the
hope that it might not be long
before Lafayette also would be
able to boast of a school building
in keeping with it's present needs
and prominent position in educa-
tiOnal affairs.

AAooooOS
Supt. Alleman naturally felt
very much honored in being Sc
lected to represent the parish
superintendents on the COM
mittee to examine and recon-
mend text books for use in the
public schools of the State the
next four years, and his friends
and fellow citizens are also graft
fed at the distinction shown
Lafayette. But Mr.. Alleman is
just beginning to fully realize the
large amount of good, hard work
he is up against
Books up in front Of him,
Books back behind him,
Books all around him,
Pile up and threaten him,
While all his friends wonder if
he can ever wade through.
And in addition, he is now be-
ginning to reap the perquisites OF
the honor conferred on him,
which are, namely, the enter
tanning between times of various
representatives, of publishing
houses, Yesterday he had the
pleasure of being called upon by
w. l. Lemons, of the Southern
Publishing Co., Sherman, Tex;
II. D. Newson, of Newson & Co.,
New York; and 81. G. Cheney, OF

ton given by the school. (2

on the market and have sue
ceeded to a certain extent,
but we feel that, in making
the statement that ia the
lLINOY HEATER. we have
obtained the highest degree
of perfection, our statement
will be verified by the lead
ing hardware dealers and
people using the ILINOY
HEATER that have tried
other stoves OF a similar
nature.
A large cold air duct in the
rear of the base of the stove
draws in the air from the
floor and passes it up along
side of the fire pot and dis
charges It, super-heated.
through an opening at top of
stove.
There is a constant circT-
lation of air upward and
downward through the air
duct, the effect of which is to
force every cubic inch of air
in the room through the air
duct and around the room in
the shortest length of time.
This accounts tor the fact
that the lLINOY HEATER
warns the room qui ker,
more thoroughly, and keeps
It at more even temperature
than any other heater. It's
wonderful economy in the
saving of fuel is the resulC of
utilizing all the products of
combustion in heating a room.
