MANY SUDDEN DEATHS
From Poisonous Rhuematism.
The Disease Has It's Dangers Should b,
Taken in Time.


Taken in Time.
Rheumatism has long been regarded as a trouble
which, while it might be painful. was not neces-
sarily dangerous. Very few persons, it was
thought ever died from Rheumatism. Recent in
vestigation among scientists has proved however,
the utter fallacy Of such belief. Three-fourths
to seven-eighths Of the sudden deaths, heart
failures, etc, edue primarily to neglected rheu-
matism. The Rheumatic Acid Poison is allowed
to stay in the system until suddenly one day it
grips the muscles of the heart and all is over.
rheumatism Is durable if the proper treatment
is used Lniments, plasters and all local appli.
cations may relieve the pain for short time, but
no one ever heard of their permanently curing a
case of rheumatism. The only way to cure Rheu-
matism Is the Uric-O way. Neutra!ize the Rheu-
matte acid and drive it from the system. That is
what Uric-O does No matter what is the kind or
character of the Rheumatism, it is all caused by
the same Rheumatic poison. Lumbago, Muscu-
lar Or Articular Rheumatism yields at once to
Uric-O. The store Of R. H. Moody is the home OF
Uric. in Belfast and he can tell you all about lis
wonderful virtues and the many cures it has
made right here in your own town. 1t sells for

The Song of the Sea Wind

How it sings, sings, sings,
Blowing sharply from the sea-line,
With an edge of salt that stings;
How it laughs aloud and passes,
AS it cuts the close cliff-grasses;
How it sings again and whistles,
How it shakes the stout sea-thistles-
How it sings!
How it shrieks, shrieks, shrieks,
In the crannies of the headland,
In the gashes of the creeks;
How it Shrieks once more and catches
Up the yellow foam in patches;
How it whirls it out and over
To the cornfieId and the clover
How it ShriekS!
How it rOarS, rOarS, rOarS,
In the iron uDder-caverns,
In the holl0ws of the shores;
How it rOarS anew and thunders,
AS the strong hull splits and thunders,
AS the spent ship, tempest-driven,
On the roof his rent and riven-
How it rOars!
How it walls, walls, walls,
In the tangle of the wreckage,.
In the Tapping Of the sails;
How it SObs away, subsiding,
Like tired child after Gliding;
And across the ground-swell rolling,
You can hear the bell-buoy tolling-
How it walls!

TRANSFORMING
Curious Results When Coffee Drink
ing Is Abandoned.

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use of coffee as il
is for a whiskey or tobacco fiend to
break off, except that the coffee user
can quit coffee and take up Postum
without any feeling of a loss of the
morning beverage, for when Postum is
well boiled and served with cream. it
is really better in point of favour than
most of the coffee served nowadays.
and to the taste of the connoisseur it
is like the favour of fine, mild Java.
A great transformation takes place
in the body within ten days or two
weeks after coffee is left off and Pos
tum used, for the reason that the pois-
on to the nerves-caffeine-h been
discontinued and in its place is taken
a liquid food that contains the most
powerful elements of nourishment.
1t is easy to make this test and
prove these statements by changing
from coffee to Postum. Read The

BURNING IN EFFIGY.
Custom Born of the Superstition
of the Ancients.

Custom Born of the Superstition
of the Ancients.
The burning of people in effgy has
come from a foolish superstition of the
ancients, who believed that by burn
ing a likeness Of a person they were
inflicting pain upon the individual him
self Theocritus tells us that the Greek
sorcerers killed their enemies by magic
rites performed over the eftlgy of the
person who had offended them, and
Virgil also makes mention Of this.
In the days of witchcraft and perse-
cution one Of the most common charges
against witches was that they made
waXen images of their enemies which
they melted before Il fire and thus
caused the dissolution Of the originals.
The Japanese still regard the ef1gy
as a means Of punishment of faithless
lovers, and in France to the time Of
the first revolution execution by effigy
was a legal rite In the Netherlands
the same illogical custom prevailed,
and the different religions burned the
eftgies of each others leaders with
zeal In England the burning of eff
f1gies was also practiced, as it was
later in America.
No doubt from the ancient custom of
burning the eftigy arose the idea of
placing the wax figures of eminent men
in Westminster abbey. In olden times
upon the death of a celebrity a waxen
figure representing him fully dressed
as in life was made and carried in the
rear of the funeral procession. After
the service the ehigy was set up in the
church as a temporary monument. and
during the time it was on exhibition it
was customary to paste or pin pieces
of paper containing complimentary
epitaphs upon it. The royal figures in
Westminster abbey date back to the
fourteenth century.-New York Trib-

ENRAGED FARMERS SEARCH
A POSSE is IN PURSUIT OF THE
TRAMP AND IF CAUGHT, HE
WILL BE LYNCHED BY THE
SAME METHOD THE BOY DIED.

Oquawka, H., Oct. 3-Because he
had been refused food, an unknown
tramp took horrible vengeance, beat
ing Mrs. John Hathaway to unconsci
BUSINESS and then tying her 4-year-old
son to a tree and burning him to
death.
Enraged farmers and citizens of
this place are securing the country to-
day for the murderer. threatening to
execute him as he did the boy.
Mrs. Hathaway whose home is two
miles from here, lay unconscious for
an hour after the assault of the tramp.
The latter meanwhile took her son in
to the orchard, where ne tied the lad
to an apple tree, saturated the cloth
ing with oil and set the garments on
fire and then left. Recovering con-
seriousness, the mother went in search
for her child, finding him fearfully
burned, but still breathing family.
The child fingered till 8 o'clock last
night when death came.
