apolis, Mimi, was tortured by sciatica.
The pain and suffering which he endur-
ed during this time is beyond compre-
hension. Nothing gave him any perma-
nent relief until he used Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. One application of that
liniment relieved the pain n made
sleep and rest possible, and less than
one bottle has effected a permanent
cure. If troubled with sciata or rheu-

Pain Balm and see for yourself how
quickly it relieves the pain. For sale

DRANK TO SAVE A CITY.
Legend OF the Quaint Old Tswn
of RothenburE.


Much is made of the legends and his
tory of the quaint medieval town of
Rothenburg, as is natural where they
lay 80 much stress on their past glo-
ries, says the Metropolitan Magazine.
The shop windows are full of big glass
cups with painted figures Of the en-
peror. the seven electors and other
worthless souvenirs for the unwary
touriSU, ana in some of the decora-
tions of inns and wine rooms a man
IS pictured drinking out OF such cup,
accompanied by verses alluding 10 8
Georg Nusch and TO Meister-Trunk.
We wondered about IL till we found
local guide book with the e1plapa-
tion. 1t seems this Nusch by his ia
nous drink saved the town several CEN
turies ago He was a senator and a
son Of the innkeeper of the Rother
Hahn (Red Cock), which is still stand
ing a little way down the street here.
Many Of the inns are hundreds Of years
old and are run under the same names
they have always borne. Well, during
the wars of the reformation this was
Protestant town and was besieged
and taken by Tilly after spirited
resistance He entered the place fol-
lowed by his train and proceeded to
the Rathus, where the burgermeister
and the senator's were assembled, and
in the barbarous style of those days
ordered that they all be beheaded.
Then there was such wailing and en-
treaties from the wives and children
and townspeople that he finally said
lie would be content with the death OF
four but the rest would not listen to
this and said all OF them or none, or
something to that effect, and the bur
germeister was sent off to get the ex-
ecutioner At length, when everything
was in great uproar, Tilly called for
drinks, and trembling barmaid
brought him a great stirrup cup OF
Tauber wine He drank from IL and
passed 1t on to some Of his men, and
still It wasn't emptied when suddenly
struck by It's size and being In bet
ter humor from the wine he said in
Jest
IF any man of you can empty this
full cup at one draft Will show mercy
and spare the town"
At this all the people stood and star
ed. not one daring to undertake II (the
cup held three quarts until Nusch,
thinking that would AT least be the
pleasanter death and probably used TO
drinking a great deal said he would
try ii. Everybody was breathless with
suspense, fearing lie would give out
before emptying the cup but on and
on he went till the last drop was drain
ed. He had only strength enough left
to hand the cup TO Tilly and say, Thy
promise" when he fell fainting TO the
ground. He recovered in n few days,
however, and lived to be eighty. And
Tilly kept his word

GIycerin Was Considered Useless

No commercial commodity can show
a greater increase in value, pecuniary
or utiltarian, than glycerin. Original
ly a waste product eliminated in the
manufacture OF soap, candles and me-
dicinal plasters, Il nuisance to the
manufacturer and source of obstruc-
tion and pollution to river and sewer,
it is now largely in request in almost
every branch Of industry. So great is
the demand that the candle and other
works can no longer yield the required
supply Of this commodity, and we now
not only manufacture it on large
scale, but import IT. 1t is used in med
icine in the arts, in perfumery, i'll the
manufacture of beer, in calico print
ing, i'll the preparation OF leather and
as an antiseptic. Large quantities are
annually absorbed in the production of
nitroglycerin, dynamite and other ex-
ploSiveS.
