EVERY ONE ASKS HIM
how HE GOT RID OF HIS OBSTINATE
MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM.
2fr. Jones Tells of the Way by which He
Treated Himself Successfully
When Doctors Failed.

When Doctors Failed.
Six physicians, all of them good, one of
them a specialist, had done their best
for Mr.. Jones at different times during
three years, and still he suffered fear
fully from the tortures of rheumatism.
The rhesmatism that had been dor
mant i'll his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice in February,
1901. From that time on for n period
of more than three years he was a con-
slant 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: II 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 APP
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't
swell when the disease settled there.
The internal organs didn't seem to be
involved at all. The trouble was all in
the muscles and the nerves.
Among the few who still encouraged
Mr.. Jones to think that a cure might
yet be found was a friend who had rea-
son for great confidence in DR. Will
liams' Pink Pills, and acting on her
advice he bought q box of them in Sep
TENDER. 1904. The story of what fol-
lowed is brief, but nothing could be
more satisfactory.
when was on the third box" says
Mr.. Jones, !" could realize change for
the better. felt sure then that DR..
Williams Pink Pills were the right
medicine for my case. l kept on with
them for several weeks longer and now
I am entirely well, and everybody is
asking what l took"
Mr.. William Jones lives at Oxford,
Mich. DR. 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.

MRS. PHIL LYpie's MANY FANS.
One Of the Few Women Who Dare Use
HEAVY Peacock Tails.

Heavy Peacock Tails.
Only woman blessed with clear
olive complexion, superimposed on a
rich red, and dark, lustrous eye, like
Mrs. Phil Lydig, would dare to pre-
sent the bold contrast she does in
carrying peacock feather fan. A
woman of fair complexion would look
positively pallid if she dared bring the
iridescent colors in contrast with her
face, but the former Mrs. Stokes can
do it safely and to advantage Her
collection Of fans, by the way, is one
of the most varied aid costly in New
York, and they are Of historic as well
as of intrinsic value. Indeed, she has
two curio cabinets set aside for them
alone There she exhibits tiny be
spangled affairs OF the Empire period,
so small that they are called fans only
by courtesy; others OF ostrich pIunes,
with jewel-iaden sticks: Spanish fans,
painted with scenes from the arena, or
bedecked with dark-eyed senoritas
who smile from latticed windows on
the Ministries who are caroling their
lays. This collection as it stands
would take hours 10 look through, and
no what Mrs. Lydlg's friends have
learned of her wea lsness In this direc-
ton they are sending her so many
new treasures that it is likely third
cabinet will be called into requisition.

CHAPTER lll.-fcontinued.)

| He closed his eyes and in few
! moments was unconscious. When he
awoke he found the strange hermit at
his side bending over him and gazing
eagerly into his face. He turned
slowly away and went back to the
| fire.
A moment later he brought him
some meat and said
You had better eat; you are weak. "
This was quite a long sentence for
| the hermit, and he paused after speak
Ing to rest. Paul took the broiled steak
and ate sparingly. 1t was very juicy
and nutritious, and he began to feel
stronger in few moments after he
had finished. The hermit meanwhile
had resumed his seat on large stone
in front of the fire.
There was now another expression
on his face. 1t was an expression OF
sadness. The more Paul studied the
features OF this strange man the more
mysterious they seemed. He lay for
q long time looking at him and ask
ing himself a thousand questions,
thinking and closed his eyes. Con
seriousness had almost Slipped away
when a movement in the cavern
caused him to again open his eyes.
The hermit was preparing to leave.
He took up the rude lamp. in which
burned some kind of oil, and went to
the opposite side of the cavern He
set the lamp on a fiat stone, and put
ting his hand into sort of crevice in
the rocky wall pulled forth something
1t was in roll. He unrolled it and
gazed at it intently.
From where he lay Paul saw that
the object when unrolled was part of
a tanned hide of some sort OF an ami
NAL
Il hope he will leave it," thought
Paul IF he does | will examine it.
There is writing on it. and it may con-
tain some clew to this klondyke mys-
terry that SO nearly drives me mad
All the movements of the hermit
were slow and deliberate. He went
carefully toward the entrance CT the
cavern. Long Paul lay on the couch
listening for the slight tread OF the
maccasined feet, but he came not
back.
He has gone!" said Paul!
He rose to a sitting position and
gazed about the cavern.
After few moments he rose to his
feet With a wildly beating heart he
began his tour of exploration. The
Oil lamp had been left burning on a
square stone, and he picked it up and
went along the great natural corridor
for some distance until he came upon
a great chamber with lofty ceilings
He began to search for the crevice
in the rock where he had seen the
man place the skin on which was the
writing. Paul found the roll and drew
it out.
1t proved to be piece of warus
hide covered all over with strange pic
lures and hieroglyphics such as the
1ndian picture writer's use 1t was
almost round, and he could find no
beginning nor end to it.
The report of a gun near the mouth
Of the cavern caused him to thrust the
walrus hide into the crack and hasten
into the deeper recesses of the cav
ern.

CHAPTER v.
THE WALRUS HIDE.

HE w Al-RUS HIDE.
Paul Miller ran two or three hun,
dred PAGES into the cavern until il
grew so dark he had to grope his way
and he came to halt
From around a projecting stone he
turned his gaze back to the chamber
which was lighted by the lamp.
He saw the hermit come at run
toward the inner chamber three mer
pursuing him. They were so close
on him that he halted by the side OF
the couch and turned at bay. A third
man at this moment appeared on the
hind and hurled him to the cavern
floor.
Paul Miller had all along watched
the exciting contest. He started
toward the chamber, where they were
tying the hermits's hands with strips
of walrus skin, and was almost near
enough to call out when he suddenly
halted and gave them a stare.
''They are the robbers themselves."
he gasped in a whisper. what in
heaven does this meant" He quickly
skunk away behind some masses of
rock, broken from the side Of the
cavern.
Completely concealed from tie act
ors in this singular drama, Pa1l was
enabled to observe all that went on.
There seemed to be only violence
enough on the part OF the captors to
effect the capture of the hermit.
When this was effected they began
pleading with him to do something, or
make some revelation After a few
words, the captive became silent and
sullen. His captors piled him with
many questions and he refused to an
swer any of them. AT last, leaving
him in charge of one man, the other
two began to search the cavern.
When they came near Paul he
crouched in the smallest possible
space and scarce dared to breathe.
One of the two searchers was the
very man whom he had chased up the
mountain side.
AS they passed one of them men
toned name which caused him to
start so violently as to almost dis
cover himself to them. 1t was Lack
land.
Lakeland was the wealthy banker
and Spectator of his own town, who
had been rival for the heart and
hand of Laura Bush. What did these
mysterious men of the Klondyke
know about him, or what had he to
do with them?
Almost maddened by despair Paul
fell upon his knees and furiously
beat his breast with his hands while
the captors led the prisoner away.
They had taken up the oil lamp
and carried it with them, and Paul
was sOon in total darkness. In his
fit of desperation he rose and fol-
lowed them. At the entrance of the
cavern he halted and gazed off after
the captors and prisoner. A thousand
tumultuous emotions swayed his
heart. and again in despair he beat
his breast with his hands.
ooh, cruel. cruel fate! Why did I
not know he was my friend and de-
fend hint"
He gazed helplessly at the little
party until they had disappeared from
his view and then threw himself upon
the floor of the cavern in despair.
But his better judgment came to his
relief and starting up he seized the
lamp and started back toward the FIRE
to light it. It seemed an age before
the faint glow from the dying embers
told him where the Are was. He at
last reached the spot. and with pine
