WAS CURED RAPIDLY
RHEUMATIsM IN TWO SEVERE CASES
 MASTERED IN FEW WEEKS.
Tho Remedy Used by MT. schroeppel and by Captain l:alfour in Great Demand in
 Vicinity of Their Homes.

In the winter of 19o2=3 MT Sehroeppel was confined to his bed by q severe at tack of rheumatism. His doctor s treat ment proved unsuccessful, but he subse- uuentlv regained his health by means which he describes with great enthu- siasm.
 After five or six weeks of helpless ness and pain, <" said he, during which was receiving regular visits from the doctor, felt as bad Us ever. Just then my mother, q woman eighty years of age, paid me visit. She had received great benefit from Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and she was confident they would help me. At hor solicitation l gave Up tho doctors treatment aud took the pills i'll its place"
 And were you cured as tie result of taking her advice:'
 "4es, quickly and thoroughly. Be- fore the second box WAS finished I felt very manifest Improvement, and within two W veells was able to leave my bed and take mp my neglected farm work. l con- tinucd to use the pills, however, until eight boxes had been taken, although long before that felt that every ves- tige of the disease had been eradIcated.
 "Aro there no traces left?"
 "Absolutely none. For q yesr and three months there has never been the slightest return of the old trouble. Tor this happy result land my family freely praise Dr. Williams Pink Pills"
 Within the bounds of China township, St. Clair county, Mich, thero is no bet ter known farmer than MT. Henry Schroeppcl. His cure has therefore nat u.ally attracted a great deal of attention. One of Mir. Schrooppel's ncighbors, Cap i tain George Balfour, after hearing of tie salutary results in Mir. Sehroeppel's case, i decided to t.Y Dr. Williams Pink Pills l for aa attack of rheumatism from which he was himself suffering. He took eigh5 ar ten boxes and HOW declares himself free from the painful ailmcut."
 It is little wonder that Dr. Williams l Pink Pills are much in favor in the con- munily where 7Ir. Schroeppel and Cap tain Balfour a1e so well and fayorably known. Thev arc sold by all druggists and are equally successful in curing neuralgia, sciatica and partial paralysis.

Peter Lavelle, Patrick Quigley

of the late Peter Menne, a half de-
mented man who lived the life of a
hermit, and who died some time
ago.
Lavelle tugged at a rock in the

appointed chairman of the Commits
sion. The President is exercising
the utmost care in the selection of
the new Commission. He is far
from satisfied with the work of
that which has just resigned, al
though he appreciates that it has
labored under some grave disad.
vantages, and he hopes now greatly
to expedite the work of construct

Diplomatic circles in Washing
ton are extremely interested in the
reports of peace overtures having
been made 10 Japan by Russia and
it is generally believed that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has played an i'm
portant part in the progress thus
far made although it is probable
that his good Offices have been ex-
ercised in all unofficial manner and
without formal request from Rus
sia. The impression prevails gen
orally that the Russian Ambassa-
dor told President Roosevelt that
his country would consent to no
forfeiture of territory and to the
payment of no indemnity and that
the President communicated this
fact to Kogoro Takihira, the Japan
ese Minister. Be that as it may,
this information has reached Tokyo
and the decision of Japan as to
whether or not peace negotiations
can be entered into on these terms
is anXiously awaited.

The President will leave Wash
ington on his southern and western
trip next Monday and will go direct
ly to San Antonio where the reun-
ion of the Rough Riders is to occur,
on April 7. He will then come
north and his private car will be
switched onto side track some
where in Colorado the President
will shoulder his gun and set out
for game region which has been
recommended to him as containing
quarry we'll worthy of his prowess
III the hunting line. 1t is notewor-
thy that the President constantly
and invariably refuses invitations to
shoot birds, although that is prac-
tically the only game to be found in
the vicinity of Washington. He
holds that it is unmanly to shoot
birds, as compared with big game,
and his consistent adherence to this
, policy costs him many pleasant out
ings. In this connection, it may
. be interesting to learn that there
are numerous squirrels, an old rain
r crow, jackrabbit and numerous
$ wood -chucks make the White
House grounds their permanent
, home and which are so tame that
, one can approach them quite close
, ly. When the snow is on the
, ground the Roosevelt children
, scatter food daily for these little
animals and for their feathered
, friends of which there is grea,
| variety. Two cats are kept a,
$ the White House but they are SC
| sleek and we'll fed that it is doubt.

Will FIGHT RURAL FREE DE-
LIVERY

The COLUMBIAN inserted last week
a clipping under the above title,
which article also appeared in the
Benton Argas and to which we re-
piled as follows:
We noticed an item in, the ArguS
last week to the effect that the
Country Merchants and Business
men will make a concerted move
nent to Protect their Business" by
setting up fight against Rural De-
livery" Let the Country Mer-
chants " beware, that the rural
people generally are farmers. And
let them also beware, that rural de.
livery is one of the greatest boons
that the government ever bestowed
upon the rural people.
Rural people can better dispense,
through their organizations, the
Grange, with country merchants,
than they can dispense with rural
delivery. Let them also beware,
that in such an effort. that they
will have one of the bitterest ex-
| periences of their lives. The rural
people have interests to protect as
well as the country merchants have,
and rural delivery is one Of them.
Let the country merchants beware,
that the rural people will more than
likely not patronize those who strike
blow at one of the dearest privi
leges that they enjoy i'll rural de-
livery, whereby they get the news
from every quarter of the globe
every day. The rural people will
dispense with the country mer-
chants rather. If the rural people
are better served by reason of free
rural delivery to the extent, that
the business Of the Country mer-
chants is no longer profitable, they
must do like other people whose
business has been interfered with
by measures for the improvement
of the condition of the masses let
them engage in other business.
Let the country merchants be-
ware that they are only parasites,
hanging on that particular branch
of agricultural industry, and wholly
dependent upon the rural people for
a living through their trade patron
age. Let them also beware that
the agricultural industry, engaged
in only by the rural people, is, para
mount, primarily, upon which all
other industries must depend. Stop
the plow, and all other industries
must stop, by reason of starvation.
The narrow, and selfish presump-
ton of the country merchants, is
thus apparent in their threatened
effort to wrest from the rural people
about the only real privilege that
they are permitted to enjoy under
free government. Shame on such
presumptuous efforts! They deserve
not to succeed. Neither can they
succeed. Stop the plow, and the
country merchants will have no
business to protect. Should they
be obliged to retire from business
by reason of Free Rural De-
livery" we guarantee that the
farmers, or rural people, will get
all the necessary merchandise and
mercantile commodities that they
require, or stand in need of, inde-
pendent of, and in spite of-the
Country Merchants, and Business
Men," to the contrary, notwith-
standing J. c. WRNNER.
