RETIRED OFFICERS PAY.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The house pro-
vision in the army appropriation bill
limiting the pay of retired officers strict
ly to the retired pay of their rank, which

changed that there can be no doubt that
such officers shall receive the retired

SENATORS GET ONTO
THE RATE BANDWAGON

Washington, d. c., Feb. 81 Pressure
|of public opinion, backed by facts and
figures, is driving several senator's into
the ranks lined up with President Roose-
welt in favor Of railway rate legislation.
While some Of them resent the way in
which Mr.. Roosevelt has pressed it upon
the house, they realize that the president
has the people with him in his crusade,
and only small number will have the
hardihood to come out fiat footed
against the president
The action of the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce in
agreeing upon d measure which puts in
effect before review BY courts rates Ak
led BY the interstate commerce commits
sion. is a decided Victory for the rail-
way reforiners.
It is not yet certain that the senate
may not change its mind before the end
OF the session Railroad interests now
seem to feel that an active campaign
|of education will cause revulsion Of
feeling il their favor before any action
could be taken BY the next congress,
should this congress adjourn without do
ling anything
Tariff revision might be played
against the railway legislation, and the
|pubiic mind be diverted
E There are many indications that this
| view of the situation IS entirely mistak-
|en. and that the sentiment ia favor Of
railway rate Legislation is likely to grow
rather than to diminish. Should the rail-
Iway interests become convinced Of that
Ifact, they may be- willing to permit 4

EVERY ONE ASKS Hing
HOW he GOT RID OF HIS OBSTINATE
MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM.
Mr.. Jones Tells of the Way by Which Ha
Treated Himself Successfully
When Doctors Failed,

Six physicians, all of them good, one of
chem 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 rheumatism that had been dor
mant III his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice i'll February,
1901. From that time on for a period
of more than three years he was 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 in time it ap-
peared III every muscle of my body. l
lost the use of my left arm Ell.
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 NIL in
the muscles and the nerves."
Among the few who still encouraged
Mr. Jones to think that n cure might
yet be found was friend who had rea-
son for great confidence i'll DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills, and acting OH her
advice he bought n box of them i'll Sep
1 TENDER, 1904. The story Of what fol-
lowed is brief, but nothing could DO
more satisfactory.
"When I was on tho third box" says
Mr. Jones, II could realize n change for
the better. felt sure then that DR..
Williams Pink Pills We're the right
i medicine for my case. | kept on with
them for several weeks longer and now
l am entirely well, and everybody is
asking what I took

Mich. DR.. Williams Pink Pills effect
wonderful cures in rheumatism, because
they work directly Oh the blood which is
the seat of the disease. They are sold
by every druggist.
