Many rheumatic attacks are due
to uric acid in the blood. But the
duty of the kidneys is to remove all
uric acid from the blood. It's pre-
snce there shows that the kidneys

acid solvents You might go on
till doomsday with them, but until
you cure the kidnevs you will never
get well. Doan's Kidney Pills not
only remove uric acid, but cure the
kidneys and then all danger from
uric acid is ended. Here is Wash
burn testimony to prove it.
Mrs. M. Taberman, Third street,

been sufferer from kidney trouble
and rheumatism. suffered a great
deal from a paiu in the small of my
back and in my side and limbs. I
had dizzy spells and dull pains in
the back part of my head. | felt
weak much of the time and had no
energy. The kidney secretions
were unnatural aud highly colored.

Pills and sent to Sweets drug store

THE FACULTIES OF JUSTICE.
Blind, Perhaps, But No Reasonable
Proof Of Deafness Also.

Judge Harlan, who lives up on the
hill, was a passenger on Fourteenth
street car the other day and was seat
ed next to a couple Of clerks who were
deeply interested in some discussion,
which caused one of them to raise his
voice to quite high pitch, says the
Washington Star. This appeared to
make the other man rather cautious,
as he glanced warily around to see
If any one was listening to the talk
Of his friend. At this moment he dis
covered the presence of the dignifled
justice and turning hastily to his loud
talking comrade, he said: For
heavens sake, lower your voice: you
may have heard that justice Is blind
but that doesn't necessarily mean
that it's deaf also" Whether Judge
Harlan heard the remark it Is i'm
possible to state, yet, all the same, a
calm smile fitted over his face at
the conclusion of the young fellows
admonition to his friend.

rheumatism Fixes.

Harrisburg, Pa.-Cured Of rheuma'
tism by the stinging of bee, a Della
ware county woman has substituted a
bee hive for her medicine chest. State
Zoologist Surface, who first scientifi-
cally demonstrated that rheumatism
may be cured by the sting of bee,
received a letter the other morning
from the fortunate victim. telling how
she had been cured The woman,
whose name DR.. Surface declines to
disclose, states that her legs are en-
tirely free from rheumatism since she
has applied the bee-sting remedy.
Every time l wash" she goes on,
however, Il am troubled for a few
days afterwards with rheumatism in
my arms and shoulders. But ! have
found a way to overcome this. I
have provided myself with hive Of
bees, and after my weeks washing |
allow myself to be stung by bees on
the parts where / have the rheuma-
tism. The effect is marvellous; the
rheumatism goes almost as quickly
as 1t comes"
After stating her case further the
woman asks DIR. Surface what he
would suggest as remedy for the
pain caused by the bee sting. The
doctor Immediately wrote to her sug-
gesting that she inoculate her arms
and shoulders with a very low per-
centage of cocaine before allowing
her bees to get busy.
