Why Suffer from Rheumatism?

Why suffer from rheumatism when one application of Chamberlain's Pain Balm will relieve the pain? The quick relief which this liniment af lords makes rest and sleep possible and that alone is worth many times its cost Many who have used it hop ing only for 9 short relief from suffer ing have been happily surprised to find that after awhile the relief became permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett oi Yum Yum. Tennessee, U. s. A., writes ''I am great sufferer from rheuma tism, all over from head to foot, and Chamberlain's Pain Balm is the only thing that will relieve the pain" FoI sale by all druggists.

SHORTER DAY CAUSES STRIKE.

It cost J. G. White & Company, the big contracting firm which has con- tracts for several million dollars of work at the Laguna dam, 5000 for violating the government labor law, which states that eight hours shall constitute days work on public inn provements. .,.E
 The corporation pleaded guilty to the charge of violating the labor law. There were two cases against them, and in each Judge Campbell imposed 8 fine of $500.
 The company Is now complying with the jaw, and the laborers work only eight hours each day. The change from the ten-hour work day to eight hours caused the company a great deal of trouble, and for time almost stopped the work
 The Indians and peons who were working at the dam receive the same wages for eight hours work that they did for ten hours. However, ignor- ant labor agitators came among the laborers and they struck because the day had been shortened two hours, al though the pay remained the same for the days work. The cause for the strike was probably never before par alleled. The laborers were finally made to see that they gained instead of lost by the change.
