About Rheumatism.

There are few diseases that inflict
more torture than rheumatism and
there is no disease for which such vari-
ed and useless lot of remedies have been
suggested. To say that il can be cured
is, therefore, bold statement to make,
but Chamberlain Pain Balm, which
enjoys an extensive sale, has met with
great success in the treatment OF the
disease. One application Of Pain Balm
will relieve the pain, and hundreds OF
sufferers have testified to permanent
cures by its use. Why suffer when Pain
Balm affords such quick relief and
costs but trifie? For sale by Stod
dard q TIalstead.

Forsythe was the first TO get to the

told him to hold on. He had almost
regained the sand bar when Blake's
hold slipped and he went back into
the hole again. McAdams was ON

The alarm was spread in the neigh
